[Campsall rover]

If any one is interested that is not aware, last seasons finals which were never played are both on Free to view for all on BT Sport for anyone interested.

Vase match is Consett v Hebburn both from the Northern League kicked off at 1pm
Currently 1-1

Harrogate T v Concord R is the Trophy final ko 5pm
Town are now of course the only EFL club to play in a non league final.

Standard of football is excellent for this level.
Both teams playing passing football on the deck. No just belt it and hope football.
Very impressed so far.

[Campsall rover]

It’s a cracking match 2-2 now.

What has happened to Consett's Black & White stripe jerseys? I am sure they wore them in 1958 when we beat them 5-0 in the FA Cup? 

[Donny Dub]

Consett v Hepburn is a local derby, no?   It all adds some spice.

Not really as Consett is north West Durham and Hebburn is North East Durham near Sunderland.

But you could classify it a Derby for purposes of this being a National Cup but as a league game probably not.

Only you and Selby would remember that. 

Sorry but that one is for Brian (Selby)

Being only a Pup, 66 in 14 days time i can only remember Crook Town and Brandon Utd matches both from Durham & Penrith from Cumbria.

[Campsall rover]

How many chances are going begging in this match.

We think Rovers miss chances. We are clinical compared to these teams.

JUST AS I WRITE Hebburn score 3-2

[BiargeBob]

I think it was the first game I went to.

Strange coincidence Harrogate play in almost same strip as Hebburn in the other final today.
Hope it is an omen regarding the result.

Town should win as Full time league club v National League South.  Should.

He's not from Thorne, Adwick le Street

[dickos1]

Pretty sure it’s Thorne,
His dad was manager and player for Thorne colliery and the family lived in the village.
Robbie left and went to uni up at Newcastle and stayed up there

[Campsall rover]

By heck this Concord lot have made Harrogate work for this.

Still not done and dusted yet.

[Campsall rover]

Done. Well done Town.

Would have Weaver as manager at Rovers. He will not have applied though.
Has got a great job at Harrogate. Dad is Chairman so knows he has time to build the playing side of the club without worrying about a few bad results.

Mind you he could have an even better job at Rovers!!!

[goalkick]

Good game with good attitude from both teams.credit to football.

I knew they are from Doncaster dickos, didn’t know where they lived.
I also know Simon Weaver’s father is the owner of Strata Homes house builders.
