tomas1 Posted January 28, 2017 Author Share Posted January 28, 2017 October 2024 Another demanding month with our remarkable FA Cup run taking the centrestage. We're top on gd with a game in hand and we play Heston next, looks like this season will be like last season with us and Heston going for the title, only difference is one team goes up.

tomas1 Posted January 28, 2017 Author Share Posted January 28, 2017 Fantastic result for us in from of a record crowd. Not going to lie we were really lucky, they had about 4 or 5 clear cut chances and should have won comfortably. We had one real chance and took it and spent the rest of the game defending for our lives. Surely in the replay Ilkeston's quality will see them through... I honestly have no words. We spent the full game defending and got a breakaway and scored with it. Then Ilkeston went all out attack and after that everything we hit went in. This is up there in my favourite ever games on FM and surely one of the biggest FA Cup upsets I think one of the reasons we got past Ilkeston was that they were in terrible form, can't really say the same about Gillingham as they're riding high in League 1. Whatever the result this FA Cup run has exceeded every expectation I had of the team and we are close to hitting £100k in the bank because of it.

tomas1 Posted January 29, 2017 Author Share Posted January 29, 2017 Well all good things must come to an end. We had a superb run and earn a boat load of money from it. Gillingham were simply the better team no complaints about it. A recap of our amazing run in the FA Cup The difference between now and the start of the season is incredible.
