Manager Tris Whitman was pleased with the performance of that match and the previous win at Belper United, as he gave his full account of the cup win.

"The game started brightly and we quickly found our rhythm following on from last Tuesday's impressive away win at Belper United. We dominated the ball and territory for large spells of the first half resulting in us creating a number of chances which saw us go in at the break 2 goals up.

"We were especially happy with the fact we were able to turn our dominance of possession into the creation of shots which we struggled with in the first game. We were forced to change things either side of the break with Simmo and Sugars both sustaining injuries and felt once we went 3 goals up, that more changes were needed due to some players carrying knocks from Tuesday's game. We do feel that these changes created a swing in momentum as Yaxley grew in confidence scoring two goals making the final moments a little nervous.

"Overall we were delighted with the majority of the performance and ultimately a result which sees us progress into the next round against Basford United. We will now need to monitor the fitness of several players as we train on Wednesday in preparation for Saturday's league game against Newark where we will be looking to make it back to back league wins against a tough opposition".

The match kicks off at Lord Hawke Way, off Bowbridge Road, Newark, NG24 4FH at 3pm.
