Reading City host the FA Vase Fourth Round while Windsor & Eton could host Fisher – Football in the Berkshires

Could Reading City face Binfield instead? The Cityzens once again drew at home after their FA Vase Third Round heroics against Snodland Town.

Binfield’s famous run to the 2020/21 FA Vase Final at Wembley Stadium was marked by the clubs drawing in each round.

Reading City were unable to match that after beating Mendip Boardwalk on penalties in the Second Qualifying Round (the round the club entered in this year’s competition), but there were still three games to go and each game was at Rivermoor. The FA Vase Fourth Round draw pits them against Essex-based Lymore Gardens of the South Thurlow Nunn Eastern Counties League First Division, you guessed it, at home.

Windsor & Eton still have to play their Third Round tie at Tunbridge Wells after Saturday’s game was postponed due to weather, but if they win, the Royalists will host Fisher FC of the Football League’s Eastern Region Southern Premier Division at Stag Meadow.
