“Everyone is bitterly disappointed at coming second, but it’s like being the runner-up in the FA Cup final,” he said. “But for a small club like ours to have made it through to the final, given all the other clubs that entered, is a great achievement.
“We’ve never got beyond the third round before, and I’m not aware of any other club from Cambridgeshire who have ever got that far.”
