What Happened In The National League & FA Trophy today?

By Sam Elliott

There was a double dose of action as vital National League points were up for grabs as well as FA Trophy semi final places.

Wrexham found their scoring touch as they came from behind to defeat Wealdstone 4-1.

Danny Parish’s goal only wound up the Dragons as Kwame Thomas' double and efforts from Dior Angus and Luke Young did the job.

Stockport County moved up to third for a few hours at least as Simon Rusk's team ended Chesterfield’s six game unbeaten run.

James Jennings and Alex Reid got on the scoresheet as County’s limp recent form came to an end.

Hartlepool United claimed an eighth home win on the bounce but they were made to work for it but struggling Barnet live on BT Sport.

Luke Armstrong’s close range first half winner was enough for Pools to take the three points.

It needed a wonder goal from Tom Knowles in the last minute to earn Yeovil a 1-0 win over ten man Dagenham.

The Glovers have now won six in a row at Huish Park.

Bromley are looking better at home in 2021 - top scorer Michael Cheek scored twice in the 3-1 victory over Altrincham, who have had a bad February.

It was a thriller between King’s Lynn and Weymouth it ended 2-2 with all the goals coming in the first half.

It was the same scoreline at Meadow Park.

Boreham Wood and Solihull Moors couldn’t be separated, Adam Rooney’s penalty securing a point for the away side.


Wembley is coming into view - and Woking, Notts County and Hereford now await Monday’s FA Trophy draw.

Woking, who have such a proud history in the competition, are creating new memories.

Alan Dowson’s team are through to the final four after Jamar Loza’s winner seven minutes before half-time stunned National League leaders Torquay United.

Hereford shocked Aldershot, even after Josh Rees’ late leveller.

His goal earned penalties but the National League North club took the glory from the spot.

Notts County didn’t have it all their own way against Oxford City but eventually found a way through.

Neal Ardley’s team are into the semis thanks I’m part to Elisha Sam’s moment of sheer class - it ended 3-1 to the Magpies.

But there was no luck for Darlington, they go out after AFC Hornchurch’s super showing in the North East.
