was that as they were actually throwing it in though?

 

[two sheds]

bloody hell that Tamworth bloke has got a long throw on him.

Wait until Man Utd are in the cup...

Cant fucking wait

 

[hash tag]

Perfect timing for the goal

 

[two sheds]

Go Tamworth - just along the road from where I was brought up

 

[Wilf]

Just turned it on, looks like a proper cup tie. Erm, whatever that means.

 

[Wilf]

Did I just hear 'go on give us a song, ya fucking bummer'.

Result

 

[JimW]

Giving it a decent go at Edgeley Park and made it to half time level. We actually had the better chances early despite Stockport bossing possession, but a knock to one of their change players meant they brought club captain on early and that's improved them markedly. Still had the odd breakaway but momentum with them late in the half. Very happy with our showing so far though, and we're a changed side ourselves. Quigley making the most of a rare start.

Big derby happening down in Bristol. Weston have just levelled it.

 

[hash tag]

Well that's gone to extra time. Will bristols fitness get them through

 

[JimW]

We've taken it to extra time too; equaliser a bit fortuitous, Doidge not long on punced on one of Stockport's few slack passes at the back.

 

[JimW]

Gone behind, bit of a tap in after all the solid defending previous.

 

[hash tag]

WSM just gone behind again as well.

Northampton v Kettering starting on BBC2 soon

 

[JimW]

Can't complain about that but we gave a decent account of ourselves. Hope extra time hasn't taken too much out the legs. Could make an extra sub in the additional time but we'd only brought five, tight squad has its downsides.

Kettering have equalized

Extra time Kettering scored again two really good headers.

 

[planetgeli]

This is better than last night, Huddersfield were absolutely dreadful (I only saw the last 30 mins).

Kettering need to keep the ball somehow but they're too knackered.

 

[planetgeli]

Brilliant. Well done Kettering.

Kettering won it

Tried to find the "Kettering" track - I thought it was by Hatfield and the North or another Cambridge Scene band but can't find it.

I've just noticed Sutton are playing Brum. Come on Sutton.

 

[hash tag]

Very pleased the wombles beat the franchise. Sorry about Sutton.

 

[Wilf]

Very pleased the wombles beat the franchise. Sorry about Sutton.

Aye to both.

Just watching the highlights on BBC2. The Hednesford game is amazing, I love the commentator he was frothing

Eta: some similar commentary from local radio stations, too

 

[Lotte]

Gainsborough v Hednesford was wild. I don't think anyone expected that. Russ Wilcox certainly didn't, if his post-match is anything to go by.

The commentator sounded like he was about to either explode or start speaking in tongues.

 

[pbsmooth]

Hadn’t seen people doing the phone lights behind the goal for penalties before. Bit harsh!

 

[bromley]

Walsall away, fuck yeah!
