Representing the Dandara Jersey Football Combination in the 48-team knock-out competition, the league representative squad have reached the quarter-finals for the second time in consecutive biennial tournaments.
The Combination beat their Essex & Suffolk Border League opponents 1-0 at Springfield and Culkin said he was delighted with the win.
The manager and coach said: ‘Essex & Suffolk had better individual players then I expected, especially following our 8-0 victory in the previous round.
‘It was good to have a challenging team to play against and they had done their homework because they watched a video of our last game and they saw that we liked to get our full backs pushing forward.’
