Salisbury Discover FA Cup Third Qualifying Round Opponents

Monday, 15 September 2025 12:30

Brian Dutton's Salisbury FC side will play Dorking Wanderers at the Ray Mac in the next qualifying round of the FA Cup.

The third round home tie against their fellow National League South opponents is due to take place on the weekend of Saturday, 27th September.

Salisbury joined the competition with a 4-1 win against Laverstock and Ford at the Ray Mac in the second qualifying round on Saturday (13th September).

Goals from Josh Keeya, Noah Coppin (2) and George Penn gave Salisbury a dominant position at halftime. Lavvy did grab a late consolation through Carson Arnold after competing well, but the home side's quality was enough to ensure safe passage to the next round.

The draw for the qualifying rounds of the FA Cup is regionalised to protect smaller clubs from having to commit to long-distance travel.

A win in the third qualifying round would leave the Whites just one win away from the first round proper, when League One and League Two clubs join the competition.
