Former Tottenham Hotspur, Stoke City and Bolton Wanderers striker, Ian Moores, joined the club in February and made his Vase debut in the semi-final against North Ferriby United.[2] Captain Andy Foote snapped his hamstring on the Thursday before the final and was replaced by Steve Cartwright.[3]

Under a new management team of Don James and Martin Head, Sudbury Town had reached the semi-finals of the Vase in the previous year. Against a difficult set of opponents on their route to the final in the 1988-89 season, they only conceded one goal, a penalty scored by March Town in the third round. In the fourth round game, away against Beazer Homes League Southern League Hounslow, Mick Money was sent off after an hour but Sudbury held on for a 1-0 win.[4] In the fifth round, they beat Rossendale United who in the fourth round had beaten last year's finalists, Emley, who in turn had knocked out the previous year's winners, Colne Dynamoes.[4] A record home crowd of 4,320 saw a 6-0 victory over Hungerford Town in the second leg of the semi-final to see the team reach Wembley.[5]
