Goals from LEE WHITE (2) and an own goal from GEORGE ALDER saw Waltham Abbey beat Romford 3-1 in the Extra Preliminary Round of this season's FA Cup. 172 teams entered the qualifying round for the qualifying round and 112 Essex boys and girls gathered in Rush Green to see our chosen team Romford go out even before the season has started.
Romford's PAUL TAYLOR did get a late consolation, their first goal in the competition since 2002 (now they tell us). The highlight of the game was when the Romford groundsman was summoned during the first half to remove something a fox had left behind. A wag in the crowd was heard shouting: "He could have shoveled anyone one of those pieces of crap off!"
Romford Team: Finn, Lovett, Alder, Rogan, Taylor, Wakem, Bruce, Dean, Harvey, Clark, J Tolan.
Subs: Penny for Dean (55 mins), Howe for Harvey (84), Foord for Alder (88). R Tolan & Hayward not used.
Attendance: 112
MoM: Jordan Tolan.
In N&R tradition Waltham Abbey now become our team on the Road to Wembley.
