The Glovers were forced to play out a penalty shootout with old rivals Weymouth in the final qualifying round of the FA Cup, with the winners booking their spot in the first round of the competition. With Weymouth missing three of their first four penalties, it was up to Knowles to book Yeovil’s spot in the first round proper, with a successfully-converted penalty enough to send the National League side through 3-1. But as Knowles stepped up to take the spot-kick (left), the pitch-side steward took his place to the right of Ross Fitzsimons’ net, casting a keen eye over the fans behind the net. With his attention off the action, the unnamed steward had little time to react when Knowles horribly shanked his effort wide of the upright and hit him in the face (right).
