FA Trophy Fourth Round sees huge upsets, shock scorelines and Torquay fans venting anger

The FA Trophy Fourth Round sees huge upsets, shock scorelines and Torquay fans venting anger after their defeat at Hereford.

We begin with the scenes at Edgar Street, with Gulls fans who made the trip furious at half time, and even more so at full time having seen no improvement from their side in the second half.

Just 8 minutes in, the Bulls had the ball in the back of the net from Obadeyi but the assistant raised his flag up.

Tom Pugh then got the first goal, sending the ball into the top bin on 20 minutes. Hereford won a free kick on the edge of the area, with Pugh stepping up and bent it over the wall and into the top corner to give the Bulls the lead.

On 34 minutes, the National League North side almost converted another free kick, but Ceesay watched his effort smack back off the post.

Shortly after that, Hereford were given a penalty, which Ceesay made no mistake from. 2-0 Hereford.

A solid team performance saw Hereford held on for the win and seal a place into the next stage of the FA Trophy.

Torquay fans meanwhile called for manager Gary Johnson to go.

HEREFORD FC: 1. Curtis Pond, 2. Aaron Skinner, 4. Aurio Teizeira, 7. Yuifu Ceesay (31. Arwyn Walby, 90+1′), 15. Tom Pugh, 17. Tope Obedeyi (16. Jack Tolley, 76′), 20. Lassana Mendes, 21. Ollie Southern, 22. Adam Rooney, 27. Nathan Cameron, 28. Kyle Howkins (3. Adam Livingstone, 45′).

SUBS NOT USED: 22. Rhys Lovett, 35. Thomas Chastey.

Yellow Card: Foyo 26′

Meanwhile, Hendon of the Southern League Premier South stunned when snatching a late win away to National League side Oldham Athletic.

Joe White put Hendon in front on 67 minutes, sidefooting home, but then on the 93rd minute, Oldham were awarded a spot kick, James Norwood levelling despite the Hendon keeping getting a hand to it.

Then on the 96th minute, Boundary Park were stunned with Niko Muir’s punt at goal going past Norman, sending them through to the next stage.

Oldham: Norman, Hogan (Kitching 72’), Willoughby (Norwood, 72’), Lundstram (Conlon, 72’), Ward, Raglan, McGahey, Gardner, Hope, Sutton, Walker.

Subs not used: Hudson, Hobson, Fondop, Sheron.

Hendon: House (Kerbey, 56’), Adenola, Perry, Riley-Snow, Matsuzaka, Light, Semakula, Leonard, White, Muri, Brosnan (McNab, 90’).

But that wasn’t the only upset, as Bishop’s Stortford thrashed league above Aldershot 6-1, National League South impressed with a 2-0 victory over National League leaders Chesterfield, Hartlepool were dumped out by league below Hampton & Richmond on penalties after a goalless draw, it was the same outcome for Colville against Bath, Macclesfield put five past Dorking and Aveley won 1-0 against AFC Fylde.

PHOTOS AND VIDEOS FROM THE FOURTH ROUND:

This is how fans reacted after the FA Trophy Fourth Round sees huge upsets, shock scorelines and Torquay fans venting anger…

ON TORQUAY:

@GlapwellGladia1: Massive respect to downesy. Always had the bollocks to face the fans and does the interviews when GJ bolts for the exit. Wouldn’t be surprised if AD did the post match interview tonight

@MattQuinn75: An impartial view. Torquay were as poor a team as I can recall at Edgar Street. Some glimmers of good football. But if this is the Southern Standard I hope we can swap leagues.

@barnabynickels: At least he fronts up, unlike the ‘gaffer’, who scurries off immediately after defeat.

@Stevewalsh9465: This needs to be done at plainmoor, I still can’t believe 20% of fans think Johnson is still the answer.

@ytfcaj00: Agent Johnson doing us proud #ytfc

@TottnumCake: Totally deserved….been booed off more than once this season. Johnson turned and silenced Bristow’s bench when we went 2-1 up against Eastbourne…. funny he didn’t turn around when we gave away a goal in the dying moments. He NEEDS to walk away.

@Jakeeeeprice98: Let me guess Johnson ran down the tunnel cause we didn’t win! 🤦🏽‍♂️

@Tommyktufc: This isn’t because we’ve lost today. This is stemmed from 18 months of decline & lack of accountability from anyone inside TUFC, especially from our “gaffer”. Congrats to Hereford in the next round. Hope they make the EFL again. More ambition than we have. #tufc

@George26011: Fair fucking play. Fuck the cunts running our club. Fuck the guy no one wants in charge. Gary do us all a favour leave. Surely this isn’t fun no more?

@IFaustus: Once again GJ makes Aaron be the grown up and take responsibility for his failures. #tufc

@CallumHallett6: Football is for the fans, the fact Gary Johnson doesn’t even mention them in his post match interview speaks a thousand words. If I was #TUFC fan I’d be fed up at the moment, no shits given about the amount of time and money people spend following their team across the country.

@TheBoroWalk: Torquay folks not happy with all the bull shit at Hereford.

@CleaveO: Deary me Torquay the club that keeps on giving. 🍿 #YTFC

@donttakethepeas:
My club.
Is
Rotten.

@moyes4ever: Love a good players fan argument

@gullssinceaboy: My club is dying.
