Kidsgrove completed a comfortable 4-0 replay victory to progress into the 1st Qualifying Round of the FA Cup, but the victory was marred by a serious injury to Geoff McGaw who appears to have broken two bones in his leg. The bad news came almost exactly a year to the day after Jordan White's season-ending ligament injury sustained against AFC Wulfrunians at the same stage at the competition. We wish Geoff all the best for his recovery.
Kidsgrove exacted some revenge for last season's play off semi-final defeat with a comprehensive win over Glapwell at the Seddon Stadium. The visitors arrived fresh from an opening day victory over Market Drayton, but had no answer as Kidsgrove picked up from where they left off on Saturday.
