Congratulations Alvechurch

[GuzzWolf]

Reaching 1st round proper of the FA cup.

 

[Burton Wolf]

I used to work in Redditch in the late 70's. Watched them at night games. Well done Alvechurch.

 

[Woodsetton Wolf]

I work in Alvechurch quite regularly and tbh did not realise they were so far in to the rounds, great stuff.

Lovely part of the world Redditch, lived there for a quite a while, split between Villa, Blues and some Albion.
Do Alvechurch still play at their slopey pitch in the village or by West Heath?

 

[Macman]

Wonder if Jeff and Scott will want to interview the Alvechurch manager now.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

Well done Alvechurch, and also congratulations to Coalville who beat Notts. County.

Alvechurch's ground is on the Redditch Road and yes it slopes, plans to move though I think.

You never miss a chance to take great joy at any team with who have the name ' Notts ' in their title being defeated

It was just a coincidence Norman...

 

[Jack Russell]

Congratulations also to Woking for their 2-1 in over Southend!

It's a huge slope, must dip 18ft corner to opposite corner.
What's the nicest/strangest non league ground you've been to? Canvey Island is strange, you can see oil tankers over behind one of the goals.

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

Quick, who's their manager, let's start a rumour among the children.

 

[JadeWolf]

FA Cup draw is live now on BBC from Alvechurch.

Notice one of their scorers the other day was Jed Abbey, he was in our U18s a couple of years ago, looked decent.

 

[sedgwolf1980]

Cheltenham away. Could be worse. Not too far for a decent day out tbf.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

A great draw for Coalville. Away to Charlton Athletic.

 

[Sheriff Woody]

Hereford at home to Pompey is a cracker too.

Hereford at home to Pompey is a cracker too.

Also Bracknell of the Southern League against Ipswich Town is a good draw for the non league team.

 

[Lisas Husband]

Congratulations also to Woking for their 2-1 in over Southend!

Ahhhh. Woking.

Memories.

 

[Norman Bell]

Ahhhh. Woking.

Memories.

There is only one Tim Buzaglo

Hereford at home to Pompey is a cracker too.

Now there are a couple of clubs that have been through tough times but slowly recovering

great match up

My home town Redditch.

The Alvechurch manager, Ian Long, is highly regarded in non-league football in the region - although his stint at Stourbridge didn't work out too well.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

Alvechurch have been drawn away to Forest Green Rovers in the second round. Having beaten Cheltenham, Alvechurch are one win away from the possibility of a dream tie in the third round.

Maybe could get us.

 

[Northbank cigarette]

Maybe could get us.

That would be my dream/nightmare scenario in our household: Wolves vs Alvechurch in the 3rd round

 

[Ginger Chimp]

Maybe could get us.

He said dream tie.
