Neither of the other 1/4 finals have been played yet. So it's Kempston or Woodford or Whitworths or Cogenhoe, I think :?

Great result, although, it was a tough game, and the pitch wasn't the best, you could have planted a few rows of spuds in it.
By the end our lads were still running, and the RC players were out of their feet.
I'm sure that there will be a few sore bodies tomorrow as RC were very Physical, to say the least 8-)

Just so damn proud of the lads !! A Final in our first season, well done, a fantastic achievement !!
I'm buzzing right now, it wasn't a pretty game by no stretch of the imagination and my feet are blooming freezing still, but we won, thats all that matters

There was nothing on the road (officer) !! Naaaaa, I decided my old man guts couldn't cope with the excitement of winning the semi final AND a chicken doner kebab, so I passed on the kebab

Good turn out must have been the biggest crowd at that ground for years. :(
Im guessing no away support can be counted for? but as a estimate.. how many Diamonds fans there?

I would have said about 200 at least, and some old faces turned up for the first time, bodes well for the future 8-)

Just sooo proud of the lads tonight, they dealt with a team with less
Interest in playing football, we let the football do the talking, kept going and Louis smith leaping like a salmon for the winner made it all worthwhile.
Ash made some very important saves none moreso than the one right at the end.
Thought the back 3 were awesome too.

Ben Roche was my man of the match, but there was a fag-paper between him and Ashley Foulger who made 3 tremendous stops, the one from the deflected shot was an amazing stop, I thought it was in. He was definately the busier of the two keepers. Ben was solid all night and I hope he's not too badly hurt? That tackle on him was criminal !!
