It's testament to the recent cup history of Stourbridge that a defeat to a team two divisions higher left their support feeling disappointed. The Glassboys weathered a first half playing into a very strong wind and went in at half-time level at 0-0. If Karl Hawley had finished off the best opportunity of the half it could even have been better for Gary Hackett's boys. As it was, to second half goals from James Constable and Josh Payne saw the Spitfires through to the third round for the first time in their history. There was not even the consolation of a late goal for the home side as Ross Flitney guessed correctly to save Hawley's 87th minute penalty.
