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.

My now home town team Worksop drew 0-0 against Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane, I don't think the Miilers have ever matched that.Originally Posted by Archiemiller
OK it was 1923 and Tottenham won the replay 9 - 0

Drew 1-1 at Highbury v Arsenal though in 1960, having drawn 2-2 at Millmoor and then won the second replay at Hillsborough 2-0.

Parkgate play Brighouse Town away in next round (25th Aug) they are in Northern Premier League (same league as Frickley Athletic) so I think this will be a tough game.
