Just watched the Cup Highlights Programme on TV. Highlights include:
As is the fashion nowadays, the home side scores a goal followed by a rousing theme tune played over the tannoy. Fleetwood Town did this - two goals followed by the uplifting theme to Captain Pugwash!
The TV cameras followed the Carlisle fans on their epic journey to Grays for a first round replay following the abondonment of the original replay due to floodlight failure - One Carlisle fan was seen sporting a Miner's lamp on his head!
The appearance again of the Blyth Spartans Manager, Harry Dunne, with his pet moustache! His name and his look suggest he should have starred in several Laurel & Hardy films!
As for our game: The keeper should have gone, although there were two defenders running back, he was the last man and I think Howe would've scored. I thought at the game that Yates was weak when Hayles shrugged him off the ball to score, but seeing it again, the Cheltenham striker seemed to have his arm quite high and in Yates' face - possible foul?
