Free entry to thank fans!

EVO-STIK Northern Premier League Northwich Victoria are offering free admission to their next home game to all the fans who cheered them on in the FA Cup at Northampton Town on Saturday.

Jim Gannon's First Division North leaders were 2-0 up at the League Two club's Sixfields Stadium before two late second half goals and a last gasp winner broke their hearts in the second round as the lowest ranked side left in the competition.

Vics officials announced on Monday that as a thank you from their players, staff and management, supporters who bring along their ticket stubbs from the weekend to their home fixture with Clitheroe on Saturday 19 December won't be charged at Wincham Park's turnstiles.

A spokesman said: "Their amazing support is helping the squad massively in our quest for promotion and fans just need produce their match ticket stub to claim this offer."

The reverse cost the Vics a home tie with MK Dons while Stourbridge's 2-0 loss at home to National League Eastleigh saw them miss out on hosting Bolton Wanderers.

Salford City, the EVO-STIK NPL's only flag-bearers in Monday's draw for the third round, will host Championship Derby County if they can overcome Hartlepool United when they replay next Tuesday night after drawing 1-1 on Friday night at Moor Lane in front of millions watching live on the BBC.
