That score fairly made me choke on my cornflakes.
What happened?

Hucknall were punished for inflicting a drum and a trumpet on the poor people of Stourbridge. |

Re: Stourbridge FA Cup ReplayIf I'd been a neutral I'd watch that every week.
Unfortunately I like all other Hucknall fans watched and suffered. I thought for thirty minutes we looked half decent, we'd got our nose in front and created enough chances to be two or three up. But yet again being unable to convert presentable chances cost us. With the ball on the deck we looked good going forward but were guilty of giving the ball away cheaply. Stourbridge created chances of their own though, and we had a few heart in the mouth moments (pinball in the six yard box and shots flashing across goal) they rattled the frame twice but we were holding our own.
Then stuff me, we gift them two goals in as many minutes before the break. Why LW was taken off, I don't know but it certainly compounded our problems. We continued to create chances but, the third was a killer especially as it came straight after a squandered chance from Kelly, when a square ball to TJ would have in all probability gained us an eqalizer. The disappointment was palpable.
I turned to Gary and said (for the first time ever) if they score another, I'm off 'cos I'm on earlies and there'll be no way back. Unfortunately I didn't get to see much more of the game as we conceeded yet another soft goal. There was then another cheer before I'd gotten to the car park entrance (god).
My take on the game was that Stourbridge are a big side (not overly physical) who played route one football and played to their strength (physical presence). They created plenty of chances hitting the woodwork three times in the 75mins I was there, in addition to other presentable chances they wasted. I still can't believe how quickly it all fell apart for us, the collapse was as spectacular as it was costly (cashwise). There could have been 20goals in that game last night, unbelieveable.
Best of luck to Sourbridge in the next round they were well worthy winners over the two games. Leaving a game early is not my way at all but I was truely fed up last night and being on earlies swung the decision. Not a proud night for me really.

I saw that and thought i must have been a misprint and "uckna' had won 1-0!  A few years ago, the BBC vidiprinter put up the score " Bath City 0 Stafford Rangers 6." Sadly, that WAS a misprint and that game had been a goalless draw! |

Bug*er! Frankie, I KNEW that drum would get you into trouble, sunshine! Frankie, it wasn't you that was involved in the so-called "Oldest Hooligan in England" incident a few years ago? Can't recall details of the teams involved,  but apparently some guy in his late 50's was being driven doolally by the opposition's annoying drummer and threatened to ram the drummer's head into his drum if he didn't desist. The drummer decided to ignore the warning......and the threat was duly carried out! ;D |

Once it was the St Johns ambulance man who was on duty, I did point out to him if I were to put it where he'd suggested it would constitute a medical emergency and it would indeed be him charged with the job of removing it from said orifice.  |
