Romulus and Gresley will go at it once again after neither side could find a breakthrough in their FA Trophy preliminary round clash at the Central Ground.

The visitors started the game on the front foot and forced Roms goalkeeper Chris Gemmell into early action.
However, the home side recovered from a shaky start and grew into the match as the first half ticked on.
Gresley had come to play though and were dominant on the ball as the home defence was put under persistent pressure.
But it was level at the break and the home side regrouped after the interval as Luke Keen was off target with an early effort.
Keen was it at again moments later as Mark Branch and Luke Bottomer combined to set up the lively midfielder.
It was then Bottomer's chance in front of goal but his effort came back of the post with Garry Fitzharris' effort suffering the same fate.
It was Keen who was looking the most likely though as his effort flew over before his header inched narrowly wide.
Gresley still had plenty left in the tank though and, but for a brilliant Gemmell late stop, could have stolen it with five minutes to go.
But, as it was, neither side could find the all-important winner and they will have another chance next week when the sides battle out in league action.
