THE ZEBRAS Match Sponsor Programme Sponsor SHERBORNE TOWN vs CLEVEDON TOWN #ZEBRAS 1 SATURDAY 12TH SEPTEMBER 2020 | KICK OFF 3PM | EMIRATES FA CUP PRELIMINARY ROUND 2 #ZEBRAS FROM THE DUGOUT WAYNE JEROME Good afternoon and a warm welcome to you all and everyone from Clevedon Town for today’s FA Cup Preliminary round tie. After a great start to the season with a 2-1 win against Premier Division side Street in the FA Cup, which not only attracted a gate of 292 it also gave the club some much-needed revenue after this COVID. It also resulted in a nice sum of money for winning the game. Since that victory, we have suffered two league defeats both by 2-0. A home fixture to Portishead and away trip to Radstock definitely not how we visualised the start of the season, but these things happen in football and it’s down to us as a group to put those wrongs right. We are an honest bunch and we know ourselves that we didn’t turn up against Portishead we looked tired and leggy from the midweek heroics against Street. Against Radstock the overall performance was more pleasing than the result but poor finishing and some questionable decisions from the officials cost us dearly. Today is a chance to take our minds off getting them much needed league points to get that monkey off our back and enjoy playing higher league opposition again in the FA Cup. So enjoy your day and always remember everyone wants the underdogs to cause an upset. Who knows today could be that day.
