Whitby Town beat league rivals Morpeth 1-0 at home to progress into Monday's FA Cup 4th Qualifying Round Draw.
Both goalkeepers were tested in the first half but despite chances for both sides it was 0-0 at the break.
The deadlock was broken on 60 minutes with Jacob Gratton scoring from the penalty spot, after Junior Mondal went down in the box, in what would prove to be the only goal of the game.
Morpeth had chances to equalise and Whitby had chances to put the tie out of sight for the visitors, but it remained 1-0 and it's the Blues who are in Monday's draw for the 4th qualifying round.
Blues boss Nathan Haslam spoke to Whitby Town TV after the game:
With National League sides entering at this stage, there's the potential for tie against Hartlepool or York City in the next round. And also the chance of a Yorkshire Coast derby with Scarborough.
