Cloudy day, 14 players plus a ref. Therfield had 12. I think they anticipated a heavy defeat, it didn't materialise, perhaps they played above themselves, perhaps. Perhaps Knobs were crap, yet there were some decent individual performances, some nice little moves and some misses. All in all it has to be said that the performance was simply poor in terms of man for man against this opposition. We were certainly more youthful and apart from a couple of their midfielders, fitter.
Felt in the first half hour far too much emphasis was on playing with pace and slick passing but the accuracy of the passing was poor and thus moves broke down all over the place. Far more time controlling the ball and holding things up before making more measured passes was required. By the time we slowed down and achieved more control of the football the sticky pitch and tiredness were taking their toll. Some lovely crosses, Phil's corners and Mark Mills centres went virtually uncontested. Noone's scoring goals this season. Tony played well at the back, Chris W and Darren (cut his head) were energetic in midfield.
We took the lead after a reasonable move when John Boyle smashed in from close range. They had a late equaliser from their midfield when a poor clearance was intercepted by their midfield bloke who smashed in from distance.
Hope you all enjoyed it. Good turnout at pub.
Nominations for next year's management team are coming in.

Gavin's back Sunday, for a small and hopefully significant contribution.

Is that it?? Iv'e waited 2 days for one and bit paragraphs. The heart has gone and there's a vacant expression on that "can't be bothered" bonce. Get a grip man!!
Disgusting the Andy Gray stuff. What's wrong with a bit of a banter? People are sooooo sensitive these days.
what a shit blog, whoever wrote that crap obviously has no understanding of the offside rule.
Sensitive!! Don't talk to me about sensitive. My tammy has been giving me jip most of the day. These tight black shorts are not helping.
The feminisation of the sport. It's a disgrace. We'll have it soon that you can't be tackled and people will wear pashminas round their necks in cold weathers. Suddenly we will find that a Women's Football League has formed with teams like Arsenal Ladies and that there is a Women's World Cup. It will be crazy. I've seen the future and it sure aint pretty. Well...apart from the new linesman. Phwoooooor!
Who could possibly like Richard Keys?

Good post. At all times keep posting!
Thought Steve looked 10 years younger and five stones fitter on Sunday, that position suits him.
