Badshot Lea v Folkestone Invicta


In The Know

Recommended Posts

Words cannot describe this game but I will try.

Unbeaten Folkestone got off to a perfect start after 4 mins with leading scorer Stuart King putting them 1-0 up. Badshot Lea enjoyed some good possession for the rest of the half but disaster struck just before the interval. A dubious penalty was awarded and Marsden converted although Watto got a hand to it. 2-0 to Folkestone at the interval.

2nd half belonged to the home side. Changed formation and gave it a go. Ryan Scott pulled a goal back on 54 minutes with a low shot into the corner. Badshot Lea continued to push for the equaliser but it didn't look like it was going to come. All three subs were sent on and on 86 minutes badshot lea were level through a Dan Ker cross come shot... Who cares it went in 2-2... Only one side were going for the winner. Folkestone clearly were happy with a Wednesday replay...Cue Jamie Hoppitt. On 90+ minutes he ran down the right wing and sent in a deep cross for substitute Brad Smith to head powerfully home to send the home side and supporters into ecstasy. After the week that Brad has had I could not think of another Badshot Lea player to score the winner. Roll on Monday for the 2nd Qualifying draw. Good luck to South Park in the replay with Walton.

Thanks Sparky and as I have already said, hope you join us and beat Walton & Hersham. If we can beat the joint leaders you can do it. Will be looking at your result closely on Tuesday evening.

You say that Aupostie. Nicky, Peter and Vice Chairman all away today. The 7 dayer will be on its way. Agree with you about the FA paperwork though... Were Guernsey that good?

Real shame we have to put up with the usual sh1t of "The is when the FAC up really starts" around the time the league clubs and then the Prem clubs come in.

 

You only need to read what it means to Badshot Lea for getting this far to know the FA Cup starts earlier than when we get to the 1st round.

 

Fingers crossed South Park make it through and how good would it be for either or both to reach the 1st round. Not just their own team right behind them but the whole CCL irrespective of league rivalries.

 

Well done Badhsot Lea a credit to the league and good luck South Park.
