After taking their unbeaten run to 7 games in all competitions with a 2-2 draw in the league away to Bromsgrove in midweek, The Ducks began their FA Cup campaign with a home win over a resolute and at times physical Barking at Buckingham Road.

What proved to be the only goal came in the 66th minute from Cliff Campbell and earned The Ducks an away tie at Harefield United in the next round.
