Stafford Rangers get home draw in quest to reach FA Cup first round
Stafford Rangers have been drawn at home against Skelmersdale United as they look to advance to the first round proper of the FA Cup.
Jody Banim's Northern Premier side – step three of non-league – enjoyed an upset 3-1 victory over one-level-above Hereford on Tuesday, bagging more than £5,000 in prize money in the process.
Joe Cuff was at the double and Callum Coyle also on the scoresheet on a big night at Marston Road.
Now, they are set to host North West Counties Premier (step five) outfit Skelmersdale in the fourth qualifying round a week on Saturday.
If Rangers win the tie, they will get £9,375 and reach the first round proper for the first time in 14 years.
