Re: Cup Round 1

I was with the Sutton youth squad when we beat Coventry in the Cup and never once was the forfeit discussed - it was an honour to play in the cup and draw a big team for the revenue that would be brought in and the publicity.

I remember a cracker from Arteta, one from Hoult and Cisse's first (still think the second was a fluke).
