Not SSML however a groundhopper from another Forum was in attendance at this First Round (Quarter Final) tie:

Huntingdonshire Senior Cup First Quarter Final
Yaxley 3-3 St Neots Town (4-5 on penalties)
A frustrating one for the Cuckoos. It was a vastly improved performance compared to when these two sides met in the league at the end of August, but due to an inability to manage the game we've not been rewarded with the result we probably deserved. We made it 3-1 in the 88th minute, but completely choked in stoppage time and conceded two in as many minutes to go to penalties (St Neots' third coming with basically the last kick of the contest).
With a stand-in keeper for the Cuckoos, I had little optimism for the shoot-out (especially after his error was responsible for St Neots taking an early lead in the contest) and such concerns proved justified as he didn't make a single save in the shoot-out.
Ah well, I think we're more focused on continuing our League form and pushing on in the FA Vase, so while the manner of this cup elimination is disappointing it's not the end of the world after an overall good performance.
Well, so long as that new keeper isn't used again, whoever he is, he proved himself to not be up for this level of football tonight.
