Monday, 4 September 2023 01:00

The draw for the second qualifying round of the FA Cup has been made, and Salisbury have been drawn away to Mousehole AFC.

Salisbury won their first qualifying round match at the weekend, beating Bridgwater United 3-2 at the Ray Mac.

Despite a determined performance from lower-league opponents, goals from McCreadie, Gunson, and Fitchett were enough to see the Whites into the hat for the next round.

Salisbury netted £2,250 in prize money from the win and could add a further £3,375 if they win their next cup game.

Salisbury's opponents in the second qualifying round ply their trade in the Southern Division One South, which is the league below the Whites. They currently sit 5th in the league with eight points from their opening four fixtures.

Mousehole beat Bashley 5-3 in the previous round to set up the tie at Trungle Parc, in Paul, Cornwall.

Salisbury will make the 420-mile round trip for the match on the weekend of Saturday, 16th September.
