MATCH REPORT
THE BIG ONE! The furthest Coleshill have ever gone in the FA Trophy, playing a team from the League Above, good crowd, and 3-0 up by half time. Coleshill were dominant, goals by Alex McSkeane, Nathan Kabeya and Bassit Mandey put the team in dream land! Who are we going to get in the next round? What are we going to do with the Prize Money? BUT WAIT! No one told Biggleswade the game was over! They scored three goals in SIX minutes to equalise, then took the lead with 15 minutes to play! Coleshill levelled the score through a second goal for Bassit Mandey but the away side won the tie in the 91st minute! Five goals in 45 minutes! Devastating!
And that brought to an end Coleshill's FA Trophy story for another year!
