Millers face Ilkeston in cup clash

New Mills will be on their travels again in the Derbyshire Senior Cup.

The Millers have been handed another away tie in the competition, with a trip to Ilkeston Town to come in the third round. 

Fans will hope it will be a crackling contest on the pitch, when the game will be played on Bonfire Night (Tuesday 5 November) with kick-off at 7.45pm. 

Ilkeston Town were formed in 2017 to replace Ilkeston FC and currently play in the Northern Premier League Division One South East. 

The Millers received a bye to the second round, where they won 2-0 at Derby-based outfit Graham St Prims thanks to two goals from joint-manager Mike Norton. 

Ilkeston, meanwhile, are entering the competition at this point.
