Billericay 4 - Stotfold 0.

[Onthesidelines]

3 nil after half an hour and game over. Swaine side footed the first after 2 minutes and headed the second. Knight headed the third . Boot headed the forth in a largely uneventful second half not helped by torrential rain. Now four clean sheets!

Even with key players out injured, the gulf in class was clearly apparent. It was a gentle work out - no injuries, no bookings and through to the next round.

 

Swaine was head and shoulders above the rest and Boot should have filled his boots ( excuse the puns)

 

Crowd just over 300 = what happened to the magic of the Cup?

Wem-ber-lee-Wem-ber-lee-Wem-ber-leeeeeee!

 

The magic of the cup.

 

Be good to get a BIG club that we don't usually come up against in the next round. Someone like Kings Lynn (again) or Sudbury.

 

A few shockers today elsewhere; Wealdstone beaten at home by Beaconsfield, Lewses thrashed 4-1 at Chertsy,,,

Some pictures from the game below. Apologies there were none from Concord. I did go but my lens is not fast enough under the lights a bit like we were on the night. An enjoyable game today in spite of the rain. I thought Knight was excellent again as was Swaine.

A comfortable win helped by an early goal to settle any nerves.

 

Swaine was imperious at the back and showed his worth from set pieces. We worked hard again in midfield with Junior looking dangerous out wide. Craig Edwards didn't quite control the game like I was hoping he would though.

 

Delighted to see Dave Knight get the goal his work-rate deserved although together with the subs maybe guilty of taking one touch too many or looking for the "killer" ball when an easier (and better) one was there.

 

Very pleasing result for us and we have now gone over 360 minutes without conceding.

 

Well done to all those who contributed today! Come on you Blues!!

[New Lodger]

A good solid performance. Another clean sheet for Morgan. Swaine and the rest of the back four looked very strong. We bossed the middle of the park and scored four goals. If I was nitpicking it would be that we didn't take advantage of the numerous 2nd half opportunities.

 

Probably the most comfortable victory of all the Ryman Premier sides with a few upsets.

 

Well done lads keep it up.

Great to kick off the cup with a convincing start . Well done lads . Next round will be tougher , but if we can keep finding the net regularly then we are heading in the right direction .

 

Great to see another clean sheet !

[Bill of Shenfield]

Enjoyable game, never really troubled by them. Agree whole heartedly with New Lodger.
