Following our ignominious exit from The FA Cup at the start of the month to BSqN side Corby Town we now take on another BSqN side in this seasons FA Trophy when we travel once again to Vauxhall Motors. In a strange twist of fate we started our, almost, successful run to the 2007 Trophy Final against Stevenage when we drew Vauxhall in the same round that year, although the original draw originally gave us a home tie that ended in a 4-4 draw at Aggborough. The replay took place at Vauxhalls ground near Ellesmere in Cheshire well into the New Year because of terrible weather forcing the postponement of the original replay.
On that day, in front of a crowd of 257 that was made up of 50% Harriers fans, we again scored four times but this time without reply. James Constable scored a hat trick while Andy White added the fourth. From that game on there was no stopping us until we finally reached Wembley and ultimate disappointment.
Vauxhall are still playing in front of low crowds and still sitting near to the bottom of the League. They also still haven't got a message board.
In fact if you go to this page on their Official website you'd think we are actually playing Southport???
