POOL SCORE BUT BOREHAM FLOOR THEM
Hero Billy hits the spot to save loaded Town from cashing out IT’S BRAVE, BUT IT’S STILL BYE-BYE BABY
SUPER SUBS Blair Turgott and Dan Holman were the Boreham Wood heroes as Blackpool became big-name FA Cup casualties.
The League One visitors – Cup winners in 1953 – broke the deadlock just after the hour through Danny Philliskirk.
But Luke Garrard, boss of the National League outfit, responded by sending on the strike duo – and was rewarded with Turgott’s leveller and Holman’s late winner (above).
Garrard said: “They were the catalyst. I pulled Dan Holman prior to the game and told him I wasn’t going to start him and that’s the best response ever.
“To get a winner in the first round of the FA Cup against a team two leagues above us, it rammed it down our throats.”
It was Boreham Wood’s first league scalp in 70 years of trying in the Cup.

Matt Paterson was the scorer as City ended a 48-year wait to reach round two – just hours after neighbours Oxford United were dumped out at Port Vale on Friday night.

Fifth-tier Maidstone thumped League Two Cheltenham 4-2 with Delano Sam-yorke scoring before being sent off.
Cheltenham’s Kevin Dawson also netted before an early bath, for a studs-up challenge on Stones keeper Lee Worgan.
Robins boss Gary Johnson was sent to the stands late on and Worgan said: “Man for man, we were the better side.”
Hereford beat Telford 1-0 as seventh-tier rivals Slough were romping to a 6-0 win at Gainsborough Trinity.

But a Ben Reeves double either side of Mark Marshall’s deflected effort meant it was the 1947 Cup winners who BUILDER Billy Bricknell rescued big-money Billericay from a cup exit.
The Essex outfit have been the talk of non-league football ever since owner-manager Glenn Tamplin started pouring money into the club.
Billericay started with former England man Paul Konchesky – a loser with West Ham in the 2006 FA Cup final – in defence.
And Jermaine Pennant, who picked up a runners-up medal of his own with Stoke in 2010, came off the bench at half-time.
But Town needed Bricknell to score from the spot in the 67th minute to earn a replay.
Jack Midson headed Leatherhead in front in the 21st minute in the battle of the Isthmian Premier League rivals.
It was his ninth goal in the competition so far, with his near-post header maintaining his run of scoring in every round.
But Billericay were in the secondround draw for the first time when Bricknell held his nerve from the spot, after Ricky Modeste had been brought down.
Tamplin said: “It was a progressed. Tyler Harvey made it 2-1 just before the hour.
White Tigers boss Lee Hodges said: “To be clapped off by the Charlton fans shows how well we played.”
Charlton manager Karl Robinson added: “Truro have done a phenomenal job. They gave it a right go.” great game. I’m proud of my boys, they dug in and I’m pleased to be in the hat for the next round.
“We were a bit bolder in the second half and went to 3-4-3, and there was relief when the penalty went in, for sure.”
SUTTON UNITED’S hopes of another cup run were dashed by CAMBRIDGE UNITED, who won 1-0, despite being a man down for 50 minutes.
The Yellows famously beat Leeds United and Wimbledon last term, before losing 2-0 at home to Arsenal.
But Jabo Ibehre’s 45th-minute goal provided decisive, even though team-mate George Maris had been sent off five minutes before the break, with his second yellow awarded for simulation.
MAIDENHEAD UNITED’S hopes of dumping out 1987 winners COVENTRY were ended by a Jordan Ponticelli double for the League Two hosts.
National League South side DARTFORD were thumped 5-1 at home to SWINDON of League Two, who saw Timi Elsnik net twice.
But National League side WOKING – who famously won 4-2 at West Brom in 1991 – are still in the hat for tonight’s draw, after Jamie Philpot’s goal earned them a replay from a 1-1 draw at home to two-time cup winners BURY.
