It is a great achievement for Stourbridge.
They should be proud of their run.
Would love to have seen them draw a bigger club in the competition.
Stourbridge have always been a bit unlucky in that respect. These are the draws they have had from 1st Round proper onwards from 2009:
Nov 2009: 1st Round: Walsall (H) 0-1
Nov 2011: 1st Round: Plymouth (A) 3-3 (H-replay) 2-0
Dec 2011: 2nd Round: Stevenage (H) 0-3
Nov 2013: 1st Round: Biggleswade Town (H) 4-1
Dec 2013: 2nd Round: Stevenage (A) 4-0
Nov 2015: 1st Round: Dover Athletic (A) 1-2
Dec 2015: 2nd Round: Eastleigh (H) 0-2
Nov 2016: 1st Round: Whitehawk (A) 1-1 (H-replay) 3-0
Dec 2016: 2nd Round: Northampton Town (H) 1-0
Jan 2017: 3rd Round: Wycombe Wanderers (A) 2-1
Walsall at home was obviously a huge occasion, local derby in their first ever 1st Round match. Plymouth away was also an exciting draw and an unbelievable result home and away. Other than that, with the possible exception of Northampton at home this year, the draws Stourbridge have received have been particularly underwhelming to say the least when you consider the football league opposition they could have faced. On top of that, missing out on a attractive draw has also cost the club in the biggest of all paydays, that of televised games and the TV money that goes with it which is as much as the combined prize money for the cup run in itself. Only Plymouth at home in the 1st Round replay in 2011 was televised and that was only on ESPN.
On a side note, I think the choice in televised games in the 3rd round this year has been a disgrace. Not one of the 5 remaining non-league sides in the 3rd round had their fixture televised yet we had to endure the same old sides on the telly yet again. So much for the magic of the FA Cup. The BBC make a big deal of the traditional, historical romance of the cup in their trailers and promotional pieces yet their actions totally contradict that. Man Utd, Spurs and Liverpool all on yet again but they were all at HOME against lower league opposition. In years gone by these teams would have been undoubtedly televised against such opposition but only if they were drawn AWAY, with a greater possibility of a cup upset.
