Vics through to last 16 of Trophy

Northwich Victoria are through to the last 16 of the FA Trophy after Ian Kearney’s injury time winner was enough for them to eliminate Staines Town in a match that was delayed for 45 minutes to ensure the pitch was sufficiently thawed.

Chester FC will not be joining Vics in the hat for the next round, but can be very proud of their efforts in their 3-2 loss to Ebbsfleet United.

Worksop Town’s game with Newport County was called off early on Saturday morning, taking into account the large distance the Blue Square Bet Premier side needed to travel.
