Good evening to all from Soham, and welcome to

the Forest Town Arena for our FA Trophy replay.

Our visitors have made a huge journey for a midweek
game and I wish them a safe journey back after the

game.

Looking back to Saturday we were disappointed with the
performance, probably one of the poorest this season.
We prepared well had a good journey down and arrived
with plenty of time. But we did not deliver in front of
goal and considering the quality we have it was

frustrating.

Clear cut chances were rare and our final pass needed
to be better.

Jason White made 2 good saves in the 1st half and
underlined his importance to us.

We did have the ball in the back of the net but it was “Looking back to

Enjoy the game, thank you for your continued support and
have a safe journey home.
