Emley advance but Nostell MW and Horbury Town exit FA Vase competition

After winning 5-1 at Lower Breck in midweek following their reinstatement in the FA Cup it was a confident Pewits side that took to the Fantastic Media Welfare Stadium pitch for the Vase first qualifying tie.

And that confidence was fully justified as Ruben Jerome put Emley ahead after 11 minutes and Ross Hardaker doubled the advantage just seven minutes later.

Joe Kenny made it 3-0 three minutes into the second half and that was how it stayed to the finish with Emley now going on to an away tie at NCE Division One side Brigg Town in the second qualifying round on Saturday, September 23.

Before then, they are away to Widnes in the FA Cup first qualifying round on Saturday and travel to play Bottesford Town in the NCE Premier next Tuesday.

Nostell MW went out of the FA Vase after losing 4-2 in a penalty shoot-out in their first qualifying round tie at Bottesford Town.

The game had ended 3-3 with Nostell coming from 3-1 down. On target for them were Liam Ormsby, Jordan Kershaw and Joe Wood.

Nostell are back to the NCE Division One at Retford on Saturday.

Horbury Town’s first-ever FA Vase tie saw them lose 4-2 at home to higher division Goole.

James Cusworth put away a first half penalty, but Town went in 2-1 at the break and conceded two more in the last 20 minutes.

Tom Brook did score a second goal for Horbury who are at home to Beverley Town back in the NCE Division One on Saturday.
