SHOLING are on a collision course with Winchester City if both sides get through their respective FA Cup preliminary round ties this weekend.

The clubs will meet in the first qualifying round at Sholing’s Silverlake Arena on Saturday, September 12 if the Dave Diaper's Boatmen see off Swindon Supermarine on Friday (August 28, 7.45pm) and Winchester waltz past Wincanton Town on Saturday.

AFC Totton were handed a trip to Bristol Manor Farm or Bitton in today’s draw. But first Steve Hollick’s men – without a win in the Southern One South & West – face a tough test of character away to Sydenhams Premier high-fliers AFC Portchester this Saturday.

There’s a possible New Forest derby on the cards for Brockenhurst if they pull off a shock result at home to Yate Town this Saturday. Neighbours Bashley would await them if Steve Riley’s new charges can get their season off the ground against Mangotsfield United in the preliminary round.

The winners of this Saturday’s all-Sydenhams Premier tie between Blackfield & Langley and Bemerton Heath Harlequins have been drawn away to either Cheltenham Saracens or Milton United.
