I couldn't believe it when they scored in the 82nd minute - the same time that Kane scored last year but that changed 3 minutes later!

....and I’m still enjoying the way Semenyo held it for an age on the left towards the touchline before drifting inside and wasting one of the few minutes left by drifting a cross/shot across rhe box. I knew we’d win it then

What an absolutely superb day out.....COME ON 'U MIGHTY PORT

As soon as they hit the bar I knew it was our day

Fantastic performance and result. Every player did us proud. Particularly pleased for MF as he clearly worked on what went wrong in recent games, switched to 4 at the back and used Semenyo to really good effect supporting Neufville in the left. Officials did well, fans were superb.

4 at the back, I don't know about that. At one stage towards the end of the first half there were six County players in a line at the back. It was deliberate and it worked.

My take is that MF had his game plan and the boys stuck to it brilliantly. They conceded that man for man and teamwise, Leicester were always going to be better than us, and they were. However, that didn't win them the game. Our drive, commitment, passion and will to win were absolutely magnificent.

That second half was the longest 45 minutes of my life and if I'm honest I didn't think we would see it out. I am so proud of the team, they were superb. Back to L2 reality now.

From TV I thought the officials were outstanding. Maybe the Okazaki booking was a tad harsh.

Very near the end a standoff looked like developing in the corner between Fuchs and Semenyo and the assistant just stepped between them and defused it with with no fuss at all. They were both about a foot taller than her.

What a great performance.
Up with the best ever for us.
Sensational atmosphere.
Backs to the wall second half.
Great TV viewing later also.
County and Flynny back in the headlights again.
My feelings and points, appreciate its Rose tinted glasses but who cares.

Joe 10 Nearly got the second goal scoring shot as well.
Forbes 6 Sorry to say our weaklink yesterday
Franks 9 Immense
Micky 10 Unbelievable
Neufville 6 Will get better thrown in at deep end
Bennet 7 Kept plugging away
Dolan 7 likewise
Robbie 9 What a cross and superb defending second half.
Semenyo 10 Immense they struggled to handle him all afternoon
Matt 9 Never stopped ran himself into the ground.
Padraig 9 Ditto

Few points can we never hear the stupid commrnt on here again

"Willmot is not a league 2 player"

Why can we not play like that against dross teams week in week out?

Superb Ref & Linos

Surprised Corky has not come on to give the boys a little praise as sure he watched the game.

Felt a good few tears as I walked out.

County Legends

Jolly Wembley
O Brien Notts County
Robbie Leicester for the cross

Happy Days still up on the Cloud

Bennett and Dolan were excellent in the middle. You only give them a 7 because you don’t like them yet slate fans like Corky for doing the same with Willmott .

Let's have a day of praise and celebration

my ratings fwiw ..

Day - 9.5
Forbes - 6
Franks - 10
Mickey - 10
Neufville - 8
Bennett - 8.5
Dolan - 9
Willmott - 8.5
Semenyo - 9
Amond - 9
Matt - 9

A ruddy great performance against a strong Leicester side, bring on round 4

Bit harsh marking of Forbes.Thought he did ok.

Possibly mate but I just felt he struggled throughout but I cannot fault his endeavour and work rate.,

Quick view from across the pond. They all played well. Neufville started slow but considering he was dropped in at the deepend grew as the game went on. Frank's was outstanding, along with Willmott and Day. My man of the match all of them. Second half was like defence v attack for a good 30 mins. Boys stuck to the game plan and didn't give up.
