It's Desborough town, will correct the match now! Desborough are the away team in Tie 76 and Harborough in Tie 77 so you can see how I mixed them up with similar-looking names!

Desborough Town are an interesting team - they've played in the same league since formation in 1896. It was known as the Northamptonshire League when they joined and became the United Counties League in 1934, without ever being promoted or relegated out of it (they did miss the first season after WW2 in 1945-46 while still dormant)
They've reached the First Round Proper once, in 1926-27, and Wikipedia takes up the story "drawn away to Third Division North Doncaster Rovers, the team were drawing the game before it was abandoned with eight minutes left due to fog. In the replayed match, Doncaster won 3–0". In recent times, they have progressed through the Extra Preliminary Round four times in the last eight attempts |

My team lost 7-3 so not a great start.
 At least I get 3 points for the goals they scored. |
