United's "Road to Wembley" via the FA Cup has ended for yet another season, as they were beaten 4-1 at Blackpool at the weekend - despite the scoreline, the Blues gave a decent account of themselves against a League One side once again this season.

While the route to the national stadium via the FA Cup has closed, the FA Trophy journey begins this weekend - with a first ever visit to Harborough Town and a role reversal of United's cup ties across the rest of the season. Can we avoid a potential banana skin against the promotion-chasing Southern League Premier Division Central side.

Before that though, in-form Woking are the opponents at Brunton Park in the National League - both sides are unbeaten in nine league games, will something give or should we expect a stalemate?

Georgie Kelly is back in the goals, Breeze is saving from the spot and United are still keeping pace at the top of the league with leaders Rochdale - it's 11 games unbeaten now, can United maintain this run in the push for promotion back to the EFL?

This weekend, it's a break from league action as the Blues travel to the Lancashire seaside to face League One side Blackpool - can they cause another cup upset and potentially earn a tie against a Premier League side in the Third Round?

United's unbeaten run stretches to ten in all competitions as they grab a win at Boston thanks to Macadam's late strike - it wasn't pretty, but Harvey's brace was enough to secure all three points and keep the pressure on Rochdale at the top.

We look back on the hard-fought 2-1 win at Boston United, before previewing the visit of Tamworth to Brunton Park this weekend.
