I am posting this to see what peoples views are on this remarkable comeback staged yesterday in the Cambs invitation cup yesterday morning between Real Whittlesey (Sun Pm side playing in a am cup) and Murrow hill from the spalding league.

Murrow Hill sit at the top of there div unbeaten this season and at half-time were 2-0 up then about 5 mins into the 2nd half they went 3-0 up.
Then from no were Real Whittlesey kicked into gear and scored 4 goals in 30mins and hung on for the last 10 mins to record a remarkable comback against a team that was clearly shell shocked with what they had just witnessed. From my personal point of view it is 1 of the best games and best feelings i have ever been invoved in and had, to be so down and out and to comeback so strong when lets be honest most teams would have folded was amazing.

The semis are going to be very interesting as Coates are in the other semi-final meaning it could be a local derby in the cup final!!!!

I know the Gaffa Dave and he's really chuffed at the result. Fair play boys, that's a hell of a comeback.

On the comeback theme, we (Farcet Reserves) came from 3-1 down with 20 minutes to go to win the game against Diesel Power 4-3. That's a hell of a result for especially when in previous years we probably would have gone on to lose 7-1!!!!

They're not that great at all, we gave them two of their 3 goals before we sorted ourselves out. Their back line is slow and pretty disorganised but they do like to play a high line so if you have forwards that are quick and keep a good eye on the line you will cause them a lot of problems.

They had a big lad up front who was very good at holding the ball up to allow their midfield to come through and a pretty tricky No. 9 who lost interest after taking a couple of hard challenges.

You should get a win from this game from what I've heard about you guys.
