"It was a tough one to take," said Morris, reflecting on their Vase exit.

“With the chances we had I thought we should have won the game but it wasn’t meant to be and we can come away with our heads held high, while we wish New Mills all the best in the next round.
“Now we have to take that performance into the league.
“If we play like that and can consistently play like that we can be right up there this year and have a real go so we will train midweek and get ourselves ready for the game on Saturday.”
