Hamworthy United manager Simon Browne is hoping to seal the signature of Wimborne’s former Cherries trainee Brad Magookin.

Magookin could be in line to make his Hammers debut at home against Fawley in the FA Vase second qualifying round (£700 prize money).

Elsewhere in the knockout competition, New Milton will be bidding to gain revenge on local rivals Lymington at Fawcett’s Field. Linnets’ neighbours knocked them out of the Hampshire Senior Cup in midweek.

Liam Currell is set to make his first start of the season for Swanage Town & Herston when they visit US Portsmouth. He completed a move from Hamworthy United this week.

Hammers: (from) Murphy, Knights, Seal, Walker, Horlock, Hester, Penny, Robinson, Halloran, Cannie, Pekun, Basing, Clements, Hampton-Brown.

Linnets: (from) Hookway, Morris, Barge, Fox, Blackburn, Proctor, Tanner, Davies, Egerton, Mason, Whitcher, Holland, Booker, Curtis, Donaldson.

Swans: (from) Taylor, Carpenter, L Mullins, Parrott, Bryant, Scott, Best, Holland, L Currell, Harrop, King, Watson, Ritchie, J Currell, White.

• In the Wessex Premier Division, Bournemouth Poppies travel to Moneyfields. Max Frampton and Fawzi Saadi return to the squad.

Poppies: (from) Vaughan, Molyneaux, Jackson, Llewelyn, Wilson, Swann, Maguire, Phillipson-Masters, Warren, Lepage, Clarke, Lockyer, Crutcher, Williams, Saadi, Frampton.

• Christchurch travel to Stockbridge for a rearranged Hampshire Senior Cup first round tie. The original clash was postponed on Tuesday due to floodlight failure, with the game goalless at half-time.
