The National League South side captured the imagination of football lovers across the country, taking the scalps of League Two Barrow, League One Stevenage and Championship runners-up Ipswich Town as they reached the fifth round of the FA Cup before their run was ended by Coventry City.
More than 4,500 fans were in Suffolk as they saw off Premier League-bound Ipswich in the shock of this season’s competition as they held on for a famous 2-1 victory with goals from Lamar Reynolds and Sam Corne before an inspired defensive resistance.
Manager George Elokobi urged everyone to believe throughout their epic run – that started with an away win at Steyning Town Community – and was richly rewarded, with the club winning the hearts and minds of an entire generation both home and away.
