Its back to cup action for Tividale this week and a visit from our old friends from Brocton. We go into this game on the back of a spirited second half performance on Saturday that earned us a 4-3 win.
Our visitors famous for their “Green Army”. There last outing being a 4-0 win over NKF Burbage at the weekend. Prior to this game we have not played a competitive game since the 26th January. Brocton sit comfortably in mid table in the Midland Football League, 1st division. So they will be looking to the cup competition’s for a chance of some silverware.
While off the pitch you could not meet a nicer bunch of people. On it we have not had any luck against them recently losing our last three meetings
THE HISTORY
Last time we met was in last season’s First qualifying round of the FA Vase, the first hurdle in the competition. Unanswered goals from Paul McMahon and Paul McMahon sent us crashing out..
We were both in the Midland League Premier when we met the season previously, the 2016-17 one and Brocton completed the double over us. In what was our first away game of that season an early Dan Lomas goal sealed the points for Brocton. The result at The Beeches looked more comfortable on paper but again it was a tight affair. Nick Wellecomme opened the scoring for Brocton and Tividale did get back level through Elliott Hartley but two Dan Lomas goals earned the visitors the points.
