BRIGG TOWN IN FA CUP ACTION AT HAWTHORNS

Brigg Town FC are on The Road to Wembley today, along with many other non-league teams.
One of the oldest surviving clubs in the country, Brigg have an FA Cup home tie against Blaby and Whetstone Athletic, from Leicestershire.
Kick off at the Hawthorns is 3pm.
Today's tie (on August 20) is in the preliminary round but this famous KO competition will not conclude until next May, with the final at (New) Wembley.

We think we are right in saying there are four qualifying rounds after the extra preliminary and preliminary rounds.
All Football League clubs, including Grimsby Town, of course, this season, then go into the black bag for the first round proper in November.
