Coalville Town have been handed a home tie in the next round of the FA Cup.

After beating AFC Telford on Saturday thanks to a second half penalty from Eliot Putman.

The Ravens will now host Stafford Rangers from the Northern Premier League.

The Second Round qualifying round tie is to be played on Saturday, September 16.

Coalville's website reports that the Ravens took the lead on the hour mark at Telford.

Tim Berridge was fouled in the 18 yard box, and Putman fired the penalty into the top corner to give the goalkeeper no chance.

Ravens manager Adam Stevens gave his views of the game to Coalville Town's YouTube channel - see below.

Last season, Coalville went all the way to the first round of the competition where they faced League One opposition in Charlton Athletic.

The Ravens bowed out bravely at The Valley, but the club will hope for a similar run this season.
