1-2 Casey the tide has turned.

Final score 1-2 Chipp! KerChing!

Okey doke, here goes. On 14 and 22 mins Cleeve forced two good saves from Conor Thompson before going up on 30 mins thro Mike Tambling. Several off side decisions against us in the first 15 mins when the game was even-ish. First good chance for us fell to Griff whose shot in front of goal was tipped over the bar by their keeper who also kept successive point blank range shots out from Barnes and Griff late in the first half. 1-0 Cleeve at half time and we didn't look a league above them. Will Gayton who had the 22 min shot for Cleeve was sent off after 30 mins (couldn't see why). Second half we looked better and made the extra player count but Cleeve still made a game of it. Barnes made it 1-1 on 60-ish minutes and Casey made it 2-1 on 70. Shortly after, Harves was redded for an elbow. A tense last few minutes but we held out. Not one of our better performances but a win is a win and we're in the next round.Their keeper looked good and kept them in it in the first half with some excellent saves.

I'd say youve got that about right Andy, It was their cup final and they made a real fight of it, I think we were set up a little bit negative in the first half, that allowed Cleeve to take the game to us.Their sending off helped us. Shame about Harvey's late sending off, he was absolutely gutted and embarrassed when he came off,he has played at his very best for the last 3 - 4 games,now he will miss 3 games. I would prefer to draw Yate, Sholing or Didcott. Its £7500 for the winners of the next round. Well done Nath, Rich and the boys
