MAXICAB KO CUP FINAL DATES

BERWICK and Plymouth have agreed dates for the MAXiCab KO Cup Final this autumn.

This year’s Cup silverware at Championship level is to be fought out between two clubs who have not reached the league play-offs, and there will be huge incentive for both to put the trophy into their cabinet.

Berwick are making their ninth appearance in the Final but their first since 1989 when they won the silverware against Poole, their only other previous triumph having come against Middlesbrough in 1980.

Meanwhile Plymouth have reached the Final for the first time at this level, although they were Cup winners in the third tier back in 2008.

Berwick, who defeated Workington and holders Poole to reach this stage, will host the first leg at Shielfield Park on Saturday September 26.

The tie will then be concluded at the Coliseum on Saturday October 10, with Plymouth having defeated Glasgow and Redcar to make the Final.
