We Two Posted November 2, 2019 Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 Well done Falmouth from us, and the best of luck in the next round, hopefully with a home draw !

Quiet Man Posted November 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 At a guess, between 450 and 500, but quite a few were non-paying guests.

Quiet Man Posted November 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 Hardest day I've had in years, Dave. But what a finale?

rougvie Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 As a complete neutral. the moment Falmouth equalised in the last minute, and the F Troop response, was an exhilarating connection with everything that is brilliant about this game. I've not seen anything like it in my time watching Cornish football. It felt a bit as though I was stood in The Shed again.

Dave Deacon Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 I think that feeling reverberated around the ground, we were all on our feet applauding the goal. The way the ball sailed over everyone into the back of the Longlevens net was just sublime! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheolderIgetthebetterIwas Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 Watched this one down at Eve parc, not a bad game considering a very soft pitch, the ball rolling quite well all afternoon, a bit slippy but players managing well. Feel sorry for the groundsman though, last thing you want on the day is extra time but winning will make up for that...maybe? Longlevans shading the game all afternoon until the final substitutions changed the game. Falmouth became more direct and a fortuitous penalty in the final minute set the change in motion, a strange punch from the keeper dropping to the oncoming Falmouth player who promptly side footed a sublime volley 20 yards over the heads of everybody and sailed into the net ...2 all and game on. Extra time and not quite one way traffic but Falmouth looking the most likely to win it...and they duely obliged with a definite penalty this time...3-2 and probably just deserving the win. Well done from me, enjoyable afternoon meeting a load of silly old buggers from my past now calling themselves the "F" troop. F for ???

Town Fan Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 Terrific result! One we'll all remember for years. All credit to the Town players for digging in right up to the final whistle. Have to say Longlevens played really well, some really talented players there. Matt Friday's highlights video is on The Packet website: https://www.falmouthpacket.co.uk/sport/18011449.fa-vase-highlights-falmouth-town-3-2-longlevens/ Meanwhile Jack Webber's goal video heads towards 50,000 views!

Tom Trust Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 (edited) At last I'm at my PC! For my 20th game this season, what a cracker it turned out to be. 70 or 80 minutes of dissatisfaction at a rather lack-luster game. The the Falmouth 'keeper did really exceptionally well to beat out a snap shop by the visiting No 10 which would have buried Town, and hope sprang. Then the pen. My neighbour and I both thought it was a shoulder-to shoulder challenge and it is interesting, watching the Packet video, that he AR on that side didn't appear to be signalling a pen - or was he indicating a FK for Town? Then the ref consulted VAR - the Valiant Assistant Referee - after which the pen was awarded and duly converted. Then the wonder goal - as Deacs says, sublime - and extra time. The 2nd pen was very obvious, the rest a bit of footy history. Nice it was in front of a decent crowd especially with all those former players who all went to join the F-troop for the 2nd half and extra time. Nice to see so many familiar faces and great to see such a good (for these days) sized crowd. The F-troopers made it sound like a proper football match - thanks, lads! 0 - 1 on 44 by their No 8; 0 - 2 on 51, didn't get his number; 1 - 2 (90) Luke Brabyn pen; 2 - 2 (90+3) Jack Webber; 3 - 2 (110) Luke Brabyn pen. Great credit to the Groundsman. Pitch heavy but perfectly good - congratulations! Great cup-tie!

Gutted Steve, spent from 7am to 2pm yesterday being sick and visiting the toilet! Missed half the rugby, not a bad thing as it turned out and the match at Bickland mate! It’s my ambition to be there for the next round though! Hoping it’s home. Looked amazing scenes when Webbys equaliser went in, great to see the F Troop back in force, had goosebumps watching it bout 25 times!! Brought back some very happy memories! 💛🖤 Only good thing it wasn’t norovirus mate!
