Football fans in and around Doncaster don’t have to wait until November as the Emirates FA Cup arrives early at Rossington Main where Greg Young’s side host Moulton from West Northamptonshire in the extra preliminary round at the Kalkut’s Community Stadium.

Aside from the city’s professional side Doncaster Rovers, Rosso are the only other Doncaster based side in the oldest national football competition in the world following a return in 2023 after gaining promotion for the very first time to the Northern Counties East League Premier at Non-League step 5.

Moutlon who were initially founded in 1896 take part in the FA Cup for the very first after being rewarded with this feat after winning the play-offs via a 3rd place finish in the Spartan South Midlands League Division One last season of which gained them promotion to Non-League step 5.

With the Magpies having no history in the FA Cup and after Rosso ended an 11-year absence from the competition just two years ago, since then Doncaster’s highest ranked Non-League side have reached the preliminary round in 2023 and then endured a tough home exit last time at the entering extra preliminary stage.
