The Quarter Finals of the Notts F.A. Senior Cup will see the remaining two
highest ranked sides do battle. Hucknall Town will host Eastwood Town in
what has to be the tie of the round, given the two club's status as the
counties highest ranking non-league sides. A local derby will see the yellow
and blues of Arnold Town and Gedling Miners Welfare square up at Gedling
Road. Elsewhere, Carlton Town will make the short trip up the A612 to meet
Southwell City and CML Premier leaders Ollerton Town will travel to Gedling
Town. Ties are due to take place on Tuesday 4 March.

BEES BUZZ OFF TO BILSTHORPE |
On the move: Matrixgrade

NSL Division One Matrixgrade Football Club have relocated. Despite intensive
efforts to upgrade their previous home in
Annesley
Woodhouse at the start of the season,
the opportunity to relocate ten miles east at the Bilsthorpe Miners Welfare
Sports Ground proved to great a temptation. The facilities were previously
used by NAA side, Santos, and whilst not deemed of a high enough standard
for Step 7 football, they would be acceptable for CML Premier football.

It has been a week for Yellows shirts in the Notts Senior Cup, with the Towns
of Arnold, Gedling, Carlton & Hucknall and Gedling Miners Welfare, all
seeing off lesser opposition. NSL side Wollaton succumbed 8-1 to Hucknall
Town. Not surprising given the seven-division gap between the two, though
they did manage to hold the Yellows to 2-1 at half time. Carlton Town
hammered Sutton Town 8-0, Gedling Town saw off fellow NCEL side, Teversal,
2-0 and Arnold Town registered a rather flattering 5-1 derby victory against
Calverton Miners Welfare. Gedling MW recorded an emphatic 5-0 win at Newark
Flowserve. Also into the Quarter Final draw go Ollerton Town, who recorded a
3-2 over Radford at
Selhurst Street and Southwell City, who recorded
a thrilling 5-4 victory on penalties at Forest Town, after the two sides had
fought out a 4-4 draw. 7

THREE IS THE MAGIC NUMBER |
NSL: Expanding
Read more about this story on the
Notts F.A. website |
The Nottinghamshire Senior League has been
permission by the Notts F.A. to run a third division.
THe NSL are keen to become a pyramid league for Notts
football, and the expansion is seen as part of the grand plan. Welcoming the
move, Dick Durrant, the NSL�s Vice Chairman, stated �There are a lot of
changes afoot above us on the pyramid, however, when we started the NSL it
was one of our stated goals to provide a good standard of football within
the county with good facilities so that the better local players would not
have to play in leagues outside of Nottinghamshire if they didn�t want to".
Concerns had been raised by the historic NAA & MAA that the move could
damage their own leagues. However,
NSL Secretary,
Darrell Parkes, stated "We are very grateful to the NAA and MAA for putting
the interests of Notts non-league football ahead of their own. We will only
allow a maximum of two teams per season to join the NSL from each league. An
agreement has also been reached that the NSL will not include third teams.
The NAA and MAA see such sides as their lifeblood and we have no desire to
see this threatened".

Retford United bowed out of the F.A.Trophy yesterday, following a 5-2 defeat
at Conference side, Histon. The Badgers made a real fight of it though,
leading 2-1 at the break thanks to a brace from Neil Harvey. Histon were
just too strong in the second half, leaving the Badger's to concentrate
their efforts on gaining promotion to the Unibond Premier. In the F.A.Vase,
Gedling Town's interest came to an end, with a narrow 4-3 defeat at Studley.

the competition. Mansfield will travel to Brighton & Hove Albion, having
squeezed by Harrogate Railway Athletic 3-2 in front of the BBC's cameras,
whilst Forest can look forward to glamour tie at home to Liverpool, if they
can see off at Luton a week on Tuesday.

ALMOST PERFECT |

All three of our professional football sides entered the draw for the F.A.Cup
Second Round, though Nottingham Forest still have some work to do. Mansfield
and Notts County made light work of disposing of non-league sides Lewes and
Histon respectively, whilst Forest struggled to an unconvincing 1-1 draw at
Lincoln City. Mansfield and Notts will once again face non-league
opposition, though Notts will be the most comforted with a home tie against
Step 2 Havant & Waterlooville, who are in the second round for the first
time in their short nine-year history. Meanwhile, the Stags face an awkward
trip to the lowest-ranked side left in the competition, Step 4 Harrogate
Railway Athletic. Forest will travel to Brentford or Luton Town, if they can
overcome The Imps on 27 November. 12

Mick Goddard, Ryan Hindley, Phillip Haddow and a brace from Mick Godber left
their opponents stunned. Retford Matchday Secretary John Hodgkinson

fantastic night for the club". The Badgers will now fancy their chances in a

SECOND BITE FOR BADGERS |
Scorer: Ryan Hindlay

Unibond Division One highfliers Retford United live to fight another day in
this season's F.A.Trophy, following an impressive draw at Unibond Premier
side, Fleetwood Town. By half time, a Steve Foster goal seemed to have
Fleetwood cruising their way into the next round, as they had done in the
previous round against North Notts outfit Worksop Town. However, the in-form
Badgers fought back impressively in the second half, and got their reward
through a Ryan Hindley equaliser in the 53th minute, thus condemning that
'The Cod Army' to a tricky Tuesday night trip to Cannon Park.
