Football: Forest Green bow out of GFA Senior Cup

2:00pm Thursday 4th February 2010

FOREST GREEN bowed out of the GFA Senior Cup at Cossham Street – Mitchell Page's header setting up a semi-final clash against Gloucester City for Mangotsfield United.

Former Reading goalkeeper Ross Kitteridge and former Stafford Rangers central defender Manny Udoji started in a much-changed Forest Green side.

The Zamaretto South and West Division side went in front 10 minutes into the second period, as Page beat Kitteridge to a corner from the right and nodded home.

The biggest plus for Rovers was the return of left-back Curtis McDonald coming through 78 minutes after weeks sidelined by a knee injury.

Forest Green s: R. Kitteridge; S. Seavill, M. Udoji, C. Henry, C. McDonald (G. Edwards 79); T. Berry, B. Osman, S. Mensah (I. Shaze 46), J. Else, P.

Lloyd; R. Styche (K. Dingri 68).

Subs not used: M. Etheridge, J. Nortei.

Referee: A. Shilston Star player: Curtis McDonald
