All the team looked really strong and we defended right the way from front to back! All that played with the exception of Chris, (Joke, no shame in missing that many shots, I saw your logic in the end... it took the keeper ages to retrieve the ball every time.. good thinking!) played with strength and conviction. After purely one way traffic through the first half, one of us got a really lucky goal although I spoke to the team after and none of us could remember who it was? Anyway, a goal is a goal??
Second half started and followed the same pattern and we really dominated. Shaggy slotted home at the near post from a tight angle and I would have been really upset if they managed to score either of their 2 efforts. All round good team performance, although dampened slightly when shags pointed out they were one player down. Thats always eggs teams on to try harder I reckon so we must have been as good as I said... maybe....Hmmm?
Well after last week this really was a breath of fresh air!
We started strongly for a change with the immortal words from Gary "I said to not concede early last week and we did so this week lets let them have a 2-0 nil head start". It only bloody weel worked!!

Thanks Cat
Surreal but prompt.
Wasn't the 1st goal a misplaced long ball?
You forgot to mention when I got skinned and ended on my arse...probably my highlight of the game. I think....it was....Gary!! yes Gary who scored our first. He gave the keeper a warning shot 2 mins before with a gazelle like run through the centre of the park, but the finish was inspired by Heskey.
A strong performance. Well played all.
