North Village tasted sweet revenge at Bernard Park yesterday as they advanced deservedly to the last 16 of the FA Cup at Wolves' expense.

Wolves' remarkable 1-0 extra-time triumph over Village with nine men in last month's Martonmere Cup semi-final seemed a distant memory as Village set out like men possessed looking to set the record straight.

Village missed enough chances in the first half alone to have won every game until Christmas, but did manage to find the net twice before the break, through Michael Hansey and Tafari Outerbridge.

Dogged Wolves kept in the game by scoring with their one serious attack of the first half, leaving Village unable to relax until Neil (Diamond) Robinson scored the clincher 11 minutes from time.

Wolves keeper Cymande Davis was straight into the action, when he did well to hang onto Outerbridge's close-range header. Three minutes later Elliot Jennings raced onto Robinson's pass and slipped the ball through the legs of Davis, only for Brewster to clear off the line.

Outerbridge and Robinson both went close before Hansey broke the Wolves' resistance in the 17th minute. Wolves lost possession 25 yards from their goal and Robinson swept the ball through to Hansey who fired high into the net from 12 yards.

Village continued the goal hunt with a delightfully curled free-kick from Kevin Jennings which shaved the far post.

A scramble inside the Wolves area in the 26th minute ended with a Robinson right-foot volley, which hit the shins of Brewster on the goal-line and rolled into the hands of the grateful, prostrate keeper Davis.

Wolves put themselves under more pressure when Davis carried the ball just outside his area as he ran forward to clear it upfield. Robinson hammered the resulting free-kick goalwards, but it cannoned away off the defensive wall.

After a series of close shaves, Wolves bounced back with an equaliser in the 37th minute.

Anthony Thomas's free-kick was deflected wide and from the resulting corner, Nakia Smith headed back across goal for the unmarked Webb to rifle home from close range.

It only took five minutes for Village to reclaim the lead, Outerbridge, a summer signing from Vasco, crowning his fine performance by heading home a long right-wing cross.

Wolves got their act together after the break and made their intentions clear in the 51st minute, when industrious right back Carlos Lopes found Dane Simmons, whose shot curled inches too high.

Village seemed content to sit on their lead and Wolves made little headway in getting behind a defence expertly marshalled by Kentoine Jennings.

Good work by substitute Lamont Simmons set up Robinson to smash home a low shot inside the far post to seal Village's triumph in the 79th minute.

St. George's 0 Dandy Town 2 St. George's hadn't kept a clean sheet against any of their three First Division opponents this season, but they almost managed it against top Premier Division team Dandy Town at Wellington Oval.

Teenage goalkeeper Tori Foster saved two penalties and defender Uroy Fox cleared the ball off the line three times before Town, one of the favourites for the FA Cup, finally broke Turn to Page 35 Hood go on rampage the deadlock five minutes from the end.

A cross from the left opened the St. George's defence for Jomar Wilkinson, a first half substitute, to hit a low shot that curled away from the diving Foster before finding the far corner. Town should have taken the lead well before then when they were awarded a penalty following a foul inside the box on Heys Wolffe. Earl Richardson shot straight at Foster who, fortunately for him, hadn't moved. Three minutes later St. George's striker Mackie Crane headed against the post. Then Delbert Minors forced a save from Jason Smith.

Town were always the better side, but wasted chances, with top striker Darron Simons one of the culprits, kept the home team in the game. The visitors got another penalty in the 87th minute when substitute Ernest Signor pushed Devarr Boyles. This time Foster saved easily from Simons. Town finally added a second goal in injury time through Reggie Tucker.

Fire Service 2 BAA 0 A controversial free kick decision by referee Lyndon Raynor handed Fire Service this victory in a cup-tie full of incident, not all of which was pretty to watch.

Fire Service manager Michael Roberts was confident of a win before the kick off, claiming that the degree of victory was the only thing in question.

But if Roberts was expecting a cricket score his optimism seemed misplaced in a goalless first half. The deadlock was broken just a few minutes into the second half when Randy Boyles, breaking through the centre, had the ball hooked away from him by BAA defender Darren Hope.

But when keeper John Doran stretched to pick up the loose ball, referee Raynor judged the tackle to be a backpass, giving Fire Service a free kick just yards from the goal.

Although BAA stuck a mass of bodies on the line, the wall failed to block Kenneth Bartram's low shot, which flew into the corner.

"It was a sliding tackle, there was just no intention to get it back to the keeper,'' said Hope.

BAA never gave up the fight and kept Service's keeper Scott Quinn under constant pressure with a barrage of high balls into the box. But they always looked vulnerable on the break and in the 75th minute Robert Thomas grabbed the clincher.

Picking up the ball unmarked just inside BAA half and with just the keeper to beat Thomas kept his head and lobbed Doran beautifully from outside the penalty area.

Bo Sagger could have added a third a few minutes later but was brought down by Andy Chiappa, a tackle which earned the defender a red card.

Ham.Parish 3 Valley 2 Commercial Division team Valley were certainly not disgraced by their First Division opponents at St. David's, taking Hamilton Parish into extra time before finally conceding the winner five minutes from the end. Parish were on their way to a seemingly comfortable victory when Sean Dill scored in the 37th minute. However, Valley pulled themselves level with a goal in the 56th minute from Devon Betty. Parish reclaimed the lead in the 74th minute when Shannon Bell found the net and it looked like being the winner until Kevin Isaac delayed their celebrations with a 90th minute equaliser to make it 2-2. That sent the game into extra time and it wasn't until five minutes from the end of the second period, with a replay looming, that Bell finally settled the issue with his second goal of the game. Parish missed two penalties.

Robin Hood 8 Prison Officers 0 Robin Hood cruised into the second round of the FA Cup after sweeping aside Prison Officers.

Derek Thomas scored four for the Commercial League outfit at White Hill field.

Prison Officers had only one shot in the first half, a long range effort from Erskine Swan which didn't trouble keeper Adrian Arnold.

It took until the 25th minute for the breakthough to come and then the floodgates opened, with Hood 6-0 up at half-time.

Robin Hood's Simon Turner, at the hub of much of the action, created the first -- weaving through the midfield, before laying off to Alan Mooney to finish.

Turner was again the provider for Thomas, who controlled before shooting into the far corner. And he crossed minutes later for Mooney to head in the third.

Paul Towlson had a fine game. He brought down a long ball, passing for Adam Rusin to score. In between, Thomas added the fourth and then crossed for Towlson to rifle in the sixth.

Mooney and Thomas added the final two strikes.
