Martin: Playoff Semi-final against Cambridge C. Crowd who gathered to see us made a new record of course, with spectacular number 789. We played twice with them in season and won once and lost once. Game was nerveaus. Quick leading goal on the 14th minute by Horst relaxed me a bit, but Cambridge put very high and strong pressure after that goal on us. Tie goal was close and Finlay Macnab goal on the 74th minute gave Fosters extra breathing space. Goal itself came from contra attack and Macnab was decleared Man of the Match. Wow so increadably proud of us. Cockfosters forever.

Martin: Fosters did unexpected miracle. When we got to the Victoria Ground stadium I told my lads to take it easy and show what they are capable of. In my own mind I thought we have already overachieved and if we lose its ok, next season we will go for the win. So the game starts and we take the control quickly. I commanded to be agressive and go to challenges harder. Jamal "Godlike" Adams
scored fabulous astonishing brace from the edge of the box on the 10th minute and I felt overjoyed. I gaved quickly more instructions to hold back and try to counter attack. It took only 7 minutes, when Jamal "Godlike" Adams
scored hes second in counter attack. With Sam Hasle
stupid red card on the 34th minute things changed and I made several changes. No goals from opponent meant brilliant win

Martin: Fosters were visiting league leaders Tamworth and made huge surprise by winning the game 4:1. I have to praise last player of the month Sam Hasler who scored 2 goals and provided 3 key passes and 1 assist in that game. Brilliant win

Martin: What could be sweeter than winning close rival. Fosters back 4 RB = Muronbedzi; DC = Kieron Murray; DC =Juho Tuomisto; and LB = Jake Green (ok he didnt had good game) are showing better and better each game. Away game and close 1:0 victory its just perfect

Martin: 89th winner from Max Pemberton gave us crucial win what we did not deserve. Im glad we got that win, but players look tired and they do not perform well. Need to make some changes for next game and give rotation to first team players

Rushall

Martin: League last team Rushall did not compose threat to our goal, but winning the game was not easy. on the 90th minute they had counter attack and their striker hit thunderous shot what missed only by few cm

Leiston

Martin: Not the game that usual football fan want to see. 3 red cards and each of them justified 100%. 1 red card was given to our player Max Pemberton who collected it on the 60th minute while asking it with stupid challenge. He got only yellow but he was earlier also booked so shower room was waiting him.
