Stourbridge welcome National League South outfit Whitehawk, from just outside Brighton, to Amblecote tonight after the sides chalked up a 1-1 draw.

The Glassboys head into the tie knowing that the victor will welcome League One high-fliers Northampton Town in the second round.

"We haven't had a lot of exposure this time," admitted Ford. "

It's been a quiet build-up. If we can get over this hurdle, which is a big ask, them hopefully it'll get the club what it deserves on the media and financial side. I think we'll see more than 2,000."
