Morecambe back on the road in the FA Trophy last 32
Morecambe will face Kidderminster Harriers in the last 32 of this season’s FA Trophy following confirmation of the draw on Monday afternoon.
The Shrimps will visit the National League North club in round four, with the match scheduled to take place on Saturday, January 10.
Having come in at the third-round stage, Ashvir Singh Johal’s players booked their place in the draw with last Saturday’s 3-0 win at Gateshead.
Morecambe’s opponents, meanwhile, sit fourth in the division below and reached this stage with victories against Corby Town and Worksop Town.
As well as a place in the fifth round, arranged for January 31, victory also generates £5,250 in prize money with £1,500 going to the losing team.
It will be the clubs’ first meeting since April 2007, when Garry Thompson’s first-half penalty gave the Shrimps a 1-0 win at Aggborough.
In all, they have met on 11 occasions in league and cup with Morecambe winning six times and Kidderminster five.
