FA TROPHY 1st ROUND
ATTENDANCE : 303
SUTTON UNITED - 1 [Alimi 7]
FOREST GREEN ROVERS - 4 [Fleetwood 27. 90. Stonehouse 75. Giles 87]
Having taken two attempts to dispose of Dover in the last round, we were naturally hoping for another slightly 'easier' tie next time out to try & see if we could claim another confidence building win. Then it dawned on me. The only way we could get an easy tie in the first round was if the FA drew us against ourselves.

Dover & Out
FA TROPHY 3rd QUALIFYING ROUND REPLAY
ATTENDANCE : 314
SUTTON UNITED - 1 [Henry 57]
DOVER ATHLETIC - 0
So, has anyone checked yet? Does two consecutive draws away from home amount to a run of 'form'?? In fact, who gives a toss. When you've lost 9 straight previously, it bloody well does in our eyes.

You Don't Sound Canadian!
FA TROPHY 3rd QUALIFYING ROUND
ATTENDANCE : 721
DOVER ATHLETIC - 1 [Cloke 60]
SUTTON UNITED - 1 [McBean 30]
Thanks for the nice easy draw guys. Appreciate it. Oh wait, you actually gave us a team pissing their division and on a run of 8 or 9 straight wins didn't you? Tossers. Still, things aren't quite as bleak as they were a couple of weeks back. Since the draw was made, we've improved immensely. Firstly, we managed to keep a clean sheet for a whole 45 minutes in the second half against Hayes & Yeading (although we did admittedly concede 3 in the first half) and we actually drew that game. Yes, we got a point. A whole point. All to ourselves. For the first time in 2 months.

How Low Can You Go?
FA TROPHY 3rd QUALIFYING ROUND REPLAY
Att : 252
SUTTON UNITED - 0
UXBRIDGE - 1 [Swift 28]
Now, I realise that these reports do convey pretty much how I saw the game. But, in a case such as this where we were so utterly bad, I also realise that even my colourful use of the English language may not quite convey the full horror.

Round 3, Our Stop...
FA TROPHY 3RD ROUND
Att: 544
SUTTON UNITED - 0
GRAYS ATHLETIC - 2 [Oli 56. Griffiths 72.]
Our further participation was always in the balance once this draw was made. Oppo looking destined to walk the league in the wake of Hornchurch’s problems and on a very good run of form coming into the game. Couple that with our 5-1 tonking at the Rec earlier this season and things don’t look good.

FA TROPHY 2nd ROUND
Att: 501
WELLING UNITED - 0
SUTTON UNITED - 1 [Akuamouah 12]
A couple of weeks ago, we turned in what could technically be called a ‘performance’ at Park View Road as we slipped to another frustrating and completely giftwrapped league defeat.

HAMPTON & RICHMOND BORO - 1 [Inns 67.]
Having got away with it a bit at Hampton on saturday thanks to Craig Watkins intervention, we had the luxury of a second chance at GGL tonight.

Hampton Caught
FA TROPHY 1st ROUND
Att: 330
HAMPTON & RICHMOND BORO - 1 [Ashe 9.]
SUTTON UNITED - 1 [Watkins 69.]
Having got booted out of the other FA competition this season by lower league oppo, you can probably understand that we were a little nervy about the trip over the Thames to the Beveree.

FA TROPHY 3rd ROUND
Att: 701
FOREST GREEN ROVERS - 4 [Rogers 6. Grayson 35. Foster 79. Ingram 82p]
SUTTON UNITED - 0
On our first visit to this part of Gloucestershire, we were heading for our first win of what proved to be a disastrous season in the Nationwide Conference, when the lights went out. Floodlight failure robbing us of those important first 3 points in what was a long, painful campaign.

BEDFORD TOWN - 0
Having met Stortford in the FA Cup when completely out of form and subsequently missing out on all the lovely wonga when we got our arses dumped out, it was quite a relief to have won a couple of matches recently and go into this Trophy tie unbeaten in 7.

HAVANT & WATERLOOVILLE - 3 [Howe 25. Haughton 55. Hambley 59]
Having wondered all week if the game would actually be on after the snowfall during the week, it all turned out to be something of an anti-climax.

With Dan away “entertaining” a couple of young Austrian ladies this weekend, Chalmers, as I’ve become affectionately known (There's nothing affectionate about it, it's your surname you twat - Taz), has been mugged into passing on the benefit of my wisdom, if I have such a thing!

SUTTON UNITED - 1 [Honey 90]
Sutton carried on a great recent tradition on Saturday, crashing out of an FA competition without so much as a whimper at fellow Ryman Premier side Hendon.

FA TROPHY 5th ROUND
Att: 1200
Sutton United – 2 [Winston 13, Newhouse 86]
Dover Athletic – 1 [Le Bihan 40]
This is getting a little out of hand. Whilst we languish at the bottom of the Conference, barely able to muster a goal let alone beat another bloody side, the FA Trophy appears to be a completely different proposition. Open, entertaining games with goals! (Ok, Canvey excepted).
