Town tame Frome again

Ten-men battle back from behind to reach last eight in the League Cup

TEN-man Thatcham Town completed a 'double-whammy' over Frome Town as they beat the Evo Stik Premier Division sided 2-1 at Waterside Park on Wednesday night to reach the quarter-finals of the Red Insure League Cup.

Thatcham played the entire second period a man shorot following the first half dismissal, and looked to be in trouble when they fell behind five minutes after the re-start to a goal from Luke Ballinger.

But James Clark got them back on terms with 20 minutes to go, and 10 minutes from time, defender Sam Flegg popped up with the winner.

It was the second time this season that Thatcham have ousted Frome from a competition, having won 1-0 in Somerset in the FA Trophy in October.
