Commenting on the draw the tie will be played on January 31 Shields chairman Martin Ford told me : " After the way the town supported us on Saturday against Brigg Town I was hoping for a home draw as # reward for those great supporters . However , it's no good moaning about an away tie . If we are going to win the Vase we must prove Day the kissing THE kissing and cuddling which follows the scoring of grals in cup and league games may soon be a thing of the past if the FA's Match and Ground Committee have their way .

Addlestone v Abingdon - V V V this season they have fallen behind with their fixtures and in some cases have eight games in hand over teams around them in the table . They are managed by Gerry Harris who made more than 400 League appearances for Wolves Wolverhampton is just " 14 miles from Bridgnorth playing in their 1959-60 FA Cup winning side when they beat Blackburn Rovers 3-0 . as well as V Harris , a full back and former England Under - 23 international , joined Bridgnorth as a player in 1962 , later left the club but returned two years ago as manager since when he has rebuilt the side into one that struggles in the league but plays well in cup ties . Bridgnorth felt there had been an illegal approach and the upshot was that when , six weeks later , Worcester sold Davies to Derby for £ 15,000 , Worcester gave Bridgnorth a cheque for £ 100 . Skipper of the Bridgnorth side is striker Colin Hemsley their top scorer with 17 league and cup goals this season and the brother of Ted Hemsley the younger Sheffield United player .

Now part - time , they won the Welsh Amateur Cup in 1971 when their attack was led by the burly Roger Rain dampens Davies . In two seasons with West Indies ' them Davies scored 120 goals but then , under clouds of controversy , he signed for Southern League , Worcester City . V Richards not out accommodation outside the Football League . They have a stand on the ground bbehind one of the goals , their efforts to build a stand on the touch line side having fallen through . The ground is in a residential area and residents won the day when they argued that a stand at the side of the ground would spoil their view . The club's headquarters is a nearby pub but they are shortly to start work on their own clubhouse . Their average league attendances this season are between 100 and 200 while their home ties in the FA Vase have attracted between 300 and 400. For the visit of South Shields they are expecting a crowd in the region of 600 . WEST INDIES 1st innings sparkle Bad weather denied the West Indies valuable match practice on the opening day of their two - day match against Southern New South Wales in Canberra today . The West Indians display ed scintillating form collect ing 123 runs for the loss of one wicket in the 110 min utes before lunch , but were then forced to sit and watch as rain fell steadily for the rest of the day .

That is the remarkable position South Shields now find themeslves in after disposing of the meagre challenge of Bede College 3-0 on Saturday . The second half was especially disappointing to the crowd after seeing Kenny Parker score a first half hat - trick , increasing his league haul to 26 . This was his second consecutive league hat trick .

In fact , the game after that is yet another cup tie , the second round of the Northern Alliance Challenge Cup in which the Mariners travel to Carlisle City ( February 7 ) . Although lacking in goals during the second 45 minutes , Saturday's game was certainly rewarding in other respects . The Shields ' line - up saw the welcome return of back four man Freddie Car ( Malcolm Pringle taking over Madden's Ritchie midfield role because of injury ) and also Jimmy Robson as substitute . Manager Elwell Bobby wanted reassurance that he will have his full squad of players available for selection for the Bridgnorth game , and the signs are encouraging . start Shields got off to an ideal against Bede when Parker put them ahead after only seven minutes . A bad Ilie Nastase clearance from goalkeeper in another Harris was neatly by Steve Hunter in midfield before laying the ball off to Parker on the left after beating full back Thompson . Parker found a gap between Harris and the near post to rifle in his shot unchallenged from ten yards . Parker scored his second after 35 minutes when Pringle's low cross from the bye line found the number ten in the six yard box , and a first timer gave Harris no chance , Pringle went off a couple of minutes before half - time for four treatment and minutes later skipper Billy Graham suffered a cut eye . Parker's third goal came seconds before the interval . Ray Young split the defence down the middle to put Parker through in the penalty area , and although Harris managed to get a hand to the shot , he could not keep it out . for Although Pringle returned the second half he eventually went off to be replaced by Jimmy Robson with 20 minutes remaining . Robson was given the chance of scoring on his return after 75 minutes when a push on Young resulted in the referee giving a penalty , but Robson fired wide from the spot . The second half goal glut expected by the crowd failed to materialise , although the chances were there . Bede provided the Shields ' defence with no problems whatsoever throughout the match , but this week's game might hold some hidden threats for the Mariners . Durham University brought off one of the day's shock results when they held Alnwick Town , on Alnwick's St. James ' Park ground , to a 3-3 draw . Even surprising was the score Bedlington 1 , Carlisle City 1 , Bedlington snatching only their third point of the more season .
