The FA Cup ties that have just been played were the "Extra Preliminary Round", the real "Preliminary Round" is on 25th August. Parkgate and Maltby have to get through another seven rounds to get in the draw with us - so unlikely!
Stocksbridge are at home to Bamber Bridge in the Preliminary Round, Maltyby are away, couldn't spot Parkgate on the list.

Rawmarsh Welfare reached the 1st round proper in 1952, eventually losing at home to Buxton 1-4, does anybody know of any other local teams(non-league) who have equaled or bettered that.?
Didn't know that. Just checked Rawmarsh Welfare FC - the club was "dissolved" in 1982.
Can't think of any others in Rotherham - Parkgate and Maltby have never even reached the 4th Qualifying round.
