​​After The Magpies progressed in the Parafix Sussex County FA Senior Challenge against Midhurst & Easebourne and then in the SCFL Peter Bentley League Cup against Lingfield, we have been awaiting final confirmation of the ties for the next rounds in each and we are now able to confirm the times and dates for both:

​Following the County Cup draw conducted live on BBC Radio Sussex last Saturday, the Magpies will travel to Shoreham 2nd Round that sees the arrival of the larger clubs in the county, such as Brighton & Hove Albion and Crawley Town. The match will take place on ​Tuesday 8 November 2016 with a 19:45 kick off at their Middle Road ground.

​After their 1-0 win at AFC Uckfield in the previous round it will be Broadbridge Heath that visit Plaistow Road in the quarter finals of the Peter Bentley League Cup, which will see a potential reunion with a number of former Magpies. This match will take place a week earlier than the County Cup match on ​Tuesday 1 November 2016 also with a 19:45 kick off​.
