The coach will leave the Bill Stokeld Stadium at 11.30am and Millers Barn at 12 midday.

In the Fa Cup, the Millers have been drawn away to National League North side Leamington Fc in the 2nd qualifying round of the Fa Cup after their fantastic home win over Stamford on Saturday.

It will be another new ground for the Millers supporters to enjoy and a tough test indeed and even though joint manager Tommy Brookbanks is excited at the chance to take on Step 2 opponents and is very much looking forward to the game, he admitted to being a little disappointed the Millers had not had a home tie when we spoke to him after the draw.

“First of all, a big well done to everyone from Saturday, I thought we deserved the win and was proud of the lads, a great response to our bank holiday defeat at Garforth”

“Yes it would have been nice to get a home draw, we are playing well at Stoke Lane at the moment and most of our draws in the cups have been away for the past couple of years, but Leamington is a fine club and a great test for us, as well as being a great away day for our supporters”

”We are close to getting bodies back from injuries over the next week or two and it was great to see Lawrence Stuart back in a Millers shirt on Saturday, Lawrence has been getting himself some vital game time at Sandiacre as he recovers from his long term injury problems and it was great to have him back in the fold for Saturday’s game” concluded the Millers joint manager.

Before we take on the tough away trip to Leamington, let’s enjoy Saturdays 1-0 win over Stamford courtesy of Carlton Town Tv.
