 Traditionally , Andover 's supporters regarded Salisbury as their local rivals , with matches between the two teams often attracting larger attendances than average for Andover 's home games . This rivalry was encouraged by the fact that the two teams played in the same division for all but three years between Andover 's admission into the Western League in 1962 and their step down to the Wessex League in 1992 . With Salisbury City 's rise up the football pyramid separating the two teams , the nearest club in Andover 's division was Whitchurch United , until Winchester City were promoted from the Hampshire League in 2003 . Their rivalry quickly grew and was at its closest during that season 's FA Vase competition , in which the two clubs were drawn against each other at the quarter @-@ final stage . This rivalry continued following the two teams ' simultaneous promotion to the Southern Football League in 2006 .
