No. Then again, a cup upset against Coventry City never really was.

It was a shock to me. I know we have "form" in the Cup and we aren't exactly at our best, but still. Eleven professionals against eleven part-timers. Should have been a totally one sided contest. Unfortunately, it turned out it was....

No because we are a 3rd division club and although teams in the top 2 divisions rarely get beaten by non league sides ,defeats to 3rd and 4th division teams are plentiful.

I think that is how the players approached the game, dismissive of Worcestershire players and position. Then found themselves out battled and couldn't get the game back. Too many of our players just haven't got the stomach for the graft and application you need to be winners.

It's the psychology of our club it's all wrong and has been for years...

Only 3 leagues rupert, 2 promotions for them and 1 relegation for us would see us playing a league game.
Very depressing stats to be honest.

According to Presley they did have a scout at the Leamington game. Before the game I would have been surprised at the result, 10 or 15 minutes in, it was pretty clear how the game was going to proceed.

Most agree one way or another with the OP, sad and worrying isn't it and something those charged with running the football team be it the manager or Steve Waggott, should seriously note.
