| Gadeside Rangers suffered a humiliating defeat to Leavesden Green as they crashed out of the Herts Senior Cup at the first hurdle. It was a dejected performance from Gadeside who played the game with many players out of position and the difference showed as Gadeside caved in and were soundly beaten. |
| It started badly as Gadeside found themselves two goals down early on, one which saw Danny Everritt turn a low cross into his own net. But Gadeside began to get back into the game before half time and pulled when back when Adam Hills tucked away a penalty. Russ Popplewell thought he had brought the scores level when he headed home Jason Brownhill's cross - but (somehow!) the linesman's flag was raised. |
| The second half was a sorry affair as Gadeside fell apart under heavy pressure by the Leavesden forwards. Adam Hills sliced a clearance past Rob Metcalf as Leavesden pressed on and turned the screw leaving Gadeside to lick their wounds on another heavy defeat. |
