F.A. Vase 1st round proper
Looked like being a close game on paper, with Gedling lying 3rd in the CML Supreme Div and Dunkirk 7th.
Close it was... close to being the most boring game of the season so far !! Blimey, it was hard work watching this....
F-T 0-0
THEN !!!!!!!
THEN !!!!!!!
37 seconds into the first period of extra time, up popped Ben Moore at the far post to head home and give the home team the lead. 10 minutes later Chris Maddison pulled the away team level with a neat header.
Extra-time half time 1-1
Extra-time half time 1-1
Just when the teams were settling for a replay on Tuesday, Brett Peel was adjudged to have tripped the Dunkirk no. 12 some 20 yards from goal --- a poor decison from an otherwise excellent Referee --- Peel did nothing wrong - the no. 12 got his legs caught up with the big defender and went over in a heap. Neil Thompson's free kick flew past the despairing dive of James Mason in the Gedling goal to give Dunkirk the win and the £700 prize money.
Poor game, and the extra-time meant we left the ground just in time to catch the City Ground traffic !!! GREAT !!! I do so love sitting in traffic! NOT !!!!!!
Tuesday -- Gedling Town v Barton Town Old Boys -- NCEL Wilkinson Sword Trophy 1/4 final
