League and FA Cup History
Worksop have spent much of their existence in the Midland League, with brief spells in both the Sheffield and Yorkshire leagues. In 1974, they joined the Northern Premier League Premier Division and remained there until their relegation to Division One in 1989. They were promoted nine years later and were founding members of the Conference North in 2004 before their relegation back to the Northern Premier League Premier Division after three seasons. It is the seventh tier of the English national league system, six leagues below the Premier League.
The Tigers have also reached the last 64 of the FA Cup on four occasions, meeting Chelsea, Southend United and Tottenham Hotspur in the first round in 1908, 1922 and 1923 respectively, whilst narrowly losing to Swindon Town in the third round in 1956. They have made the proper round draw on three other occasions, the most recent of which was 2001, succumbing to Bournemouth 3–0 in the first round with goals from Richard Hughes, James Hayter and Steve Fletcher.

Famous quotes containing the words league, cup and/or history:
“He will deliver you from six troubles; in seven no harm shall touch you. In famine he will redeem you from death, and in war from the power of the sword. You shall be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, and shall not fear destruction when it comes. At destruction and famine you shall laugh, and shall not fear the wild animals of the earth. For you shall be in league with the stones of the field, and the wild animals shall be at peace with you.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Job 5:19-23.
“It is surely easier to confess a murder over a cup of coffee than in front of a jury.”
—Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)
“The history of the past is but one long struggle upward to equality.”
—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
