Swindon Supermarine’s long been one of my favourite names on the non-league scene.

It was until they beat Maidstone on saturday

I saws the Rugby v Nantwich tie on the Saturday (bottom Southern Premier v mid-table Northern Premier), result was a fair reflection, Rugby looked short of confidence up front in an otheriwise fairly even game.

Bury Town won 3-0 at the Hamlet on the Sunday afternoon, all three goals coming inside the first twenty minutes. The game overall was quite even, but Bury were far sharper out of the blocks and look well equipped to cause an upset at Hampton in the next round, having already knocked Chelmsford and Boringstoke out of the FA Cup.

Sounds like I went to the wrong game in Ashton tonight!

Really chuffed for Blyth as well, top set of fans who joined in our relegation party at Hilton Park last year

This is supposed to be an FA Trophy thread!

Silly me!!

I feel compelled to criticise The Moderation Process

That's that then

Had a brilliant day at Tamworth vs Workington (supporting the Reds). Dominated them the whole match, deserved the win, well taken goal from Jonny Wright

Northwich away. Whoop de doo. A side that are second billing at their own ground: now that's tinpot

Warrington Town 0-1 Nantwich Town

Wow! So Close

Away at Burton for the Celts... should be a good test!!

Didn't they have Grobblaar (sp?) at one time?

No idea. He played for Chesham in the late 90s if that's any help.

United reserves don't play there anymore.



Boston at home tonight, seeing as it was called off on Saturday. Home tie against Telford awaits the winner.

So they're second billing behind a side that doesn't even play there. Bleedin' marvellous

Balls to the FA trophy.

13-12 winners on penalties last night. The first 25 pens all went in without either keeper getting close before Michael Ingham saved the 26th to send us through to a home quarter-final against either Havant & Waterlooville (who we owe for the FA Cup last season) or Crawley.

Blinding.



I understand they had started to sift through the supporters as they were next to take penalties.

They didn't get round to asking me. Hence we won.




Watch all 26 pens [url=http://littleblogofrants.blogspot.com/2009/02/best-shoot-out-ever.htmlhere[/url

And now into the semi-finals. 180 minutes from Wembley. Woo. I can almost taste the excitement. No, really.

I can taste the excitement john ill tell you that for nowt, i didnt really think much of it till the 2nd half but 1-0 with 30mins to go and remembering last years S-F 2nd leg 88th minute as the torquay player headed beyond his keeper and seeing the ball trickle towards the open goal then...it would have meant an awful lot if it went in, sod the comp, i wanna go and see York at Wembley....thanks heaven for Crocodile McBreen

:s

off topic on this specific thread...but the Weymouth game is gonna be a weird kinda atmosphere if they stick out the same team as the weekend. I dont wanna see us drub a load of 17 year old, but the thort of us winning 10-0 has increased the attendees with me about 4 times over just to see the crack :/

Just got back from the City game. 2-1 today and 4-1 overall so we are off to Wembley. Anyone know the score in the other semi?

Ebbsfleet 0 Stevenage 1 (2 - 4).

Enjoy the Final.
