The competition kicks off this weekend with 218 Extra-Preliminary Round ties. The Seasiders were drawn against Boro Rangers, who have since withdrawn.

Marske will now travel to face the winner of this afternoon’s tie between Consett and North Shields in the Preliminary Round.

Should the Seasiders progress, the First Qualifying Round is pencilled in for Saturday 5 September, with the second and third rounds taking place on 19 September and 3 October respectively.

The First Round Proper is a further two victories away, and comes on Saturday 7 November. The final (calm down) will take place on Saturday 22 May 2027.
