Full-time - Horsham 4 Maidenhead 1 - Horsham go through to the next round after a thrilling display against Maidenhead.

Sub Lee Farrell hits 4th goal for Horsham.

83 mins - Carney hits his second goal after a one-two with Lewis Taylor.

64 mins - Dwane Lee reduces the arrears with a penalty after a foul by Kevin Hemsley.

62 mins - Lee Carney doubles the Hornets' advatange with an overhead kick.

Half-time - Brake was in the thick of the action with a series of crunching tackles and pacey left wing runs.

And he topped off his first half performance by putting his side ahead seconds before the interval.

He picked up the ball in a central position 20 yards from goal following a right wing move before hitting a thunderbolt which went flying beyond Louis Wells and into the top corner.

It came as Horsham began to exert some consistent pressure. Charman had a shot charged down on the edge of the penalty area on 42 minutes with Magpies' defender David Clarke appearing to handle the ball.

45 mins - Nigel Brake puts Horsham ahead with a 20-yard pile driver seconds before the interval.

There was a minute's silence before kick off in memory of Dennis Daubney, a 1947 player who recently passed away, and Ricky Butler, the Horsham youngster who died following an incident at a Halloween party last Saturday.

But the crowd soon found their voice although it was more to express nerves than cheering Hornets' glory.

Former Albion defender Stuart Myall who played in the first round for the Seagulls, appealed for his side to keep it cool.

But his outfit looked decidedly edgy and it was panic stations after 11 minutes. Alan Mansfield got in a tangle with Yashwa Romeo and the Maidenhead striker's shot rebounded off the keeper's chest and went just wide.

There was tension in the Hornets display as they gave away two sloppy free kicks with unnecessary fouls, with striker Simon Austin getting booked for one of them.

Horsham found flashes of their passing game but there was no end product, although they had a penalty appeal for handball turned down after a goalmouth scramble on 15 minutes.

Cup fever gripped the Atspeed Stadium as the sun beamed down on cue for Horsham's biggest match in 41 years.

Players from the two previous Hornets' teams to play in the first round proper were among the crowd.

Owen Parker and Roy Spriggs, who were in the side which lost to Tommy Lawton's Notts County in 1947, were introduced to the fans.

Captain Wilf Hugill and Mick Streeter, who were in the team defeated by Don Rogers' Swindon in 1966, were also among more than 2,000 spectators.

Hornets manager John Maggs included Gary Charman in his starting line up.

The long serving winger had been sidelined with a groin problem. John Westcott dropped to the bench.
