A poor end to the home fixtures at dull as dishwater Knebworth Rec. Players looked jaded and devoid of interest or passion. Far too many fixtures arranged for the season perhaps. Next season we probably should have a dozen or so football games and more bathchair races and pub crawls. yet the league is planning to expand with two new teams, one playing in Welwyn and the other from north of Sandy.
A goalkeeper is a priority however many games we have.
They didn't create a host of chances but looked and indeed were the better football unit. They deserved their win. A good and fair opposition who were quite energetic in midfield I thought. A good turn out in the Station afterwards was praiseworthy.
Which Knobs played well?
Well Brendan did. Paul was competent at left back and had a good start in goal, being hailed the 'new Dave' before the plaudits went to his head and he let in two snorters. Can't be blamed - he volunteered, an excuse we've hid behind too often this season.
They led half time 2-0 thanks to a neatly placed shot from their CF and a close range stab in from a cross that our defenders and keeper should have competed for more vigorously.
Gavin did some good things but his rare possession was usually from his own foraging. He was ill served. He scored our only goal from a slaloming run from half way which he finished off well.
He was then inexplicably substituted. Was he knackered?
Their keeper saved well and handled well when he went in for the second half. A 30 yard low exocet from Alistair turned round the post being one of his highlights.
Having 14 players for once seemed a distinct disadvantage in that the frequent roll on off subs seemed to bring about wholesale changes to team 'formation' as players tried out a number of positions for size. "How do I look in this?"- fucking rubbish geroff again.
Bill showed his handling skills well in preventing a through ball on goal which would have been a red card in Alistair's reckoning, Two minutes to go, well behind- did it matter.
An opportunity to finish off the season in style against Litlington away but the numbers look unpromising for next week.
Enjoy your rest you lucky people. Wish I could have had the chances you lot had to play the finest game in the world. But alas Father Time's sickle has severed me legs below the knees.
Dreaming on!

Latest club to join league Broxbourne playing out og Cuffley.
fuck off your shit
I love emphasis on the positive.
Dear Ron,
I read your report and am dissapointed to see that the team had you fooled. The real reason we lost was that at least 5 of the players as far as I could gather turned up in no fit state to play. Some of us ran up and down the flanks working hard but when half the team are not fit and the others don't pass to open men we have little chance of competing. Apart from the health issues involved with heavy drinking, letting your team mates down is a crime. Ron, being so easily fooled you should allow someone else to mange next season.
I agree. It is a disgrace seeing this club fall apart due to the devils of drink. Having said that, we missed chances. Darren missed from 5 years, Richard missed from 8 yards, Phil missed from 35 yards. A goal was ruled out for offside although the player was not involved. All of these were missed in the match report.
Be fair to Darren, 5 years is a long way out.
Pissed or not they make themselves available it's their responsibility to avoid looking like prats!
Hard not to look a prat in that black kit. Both chances missed were not easy. Hardly side foot tap ins and if they were both drunk, even harder!
i am never in a fit state to play, physically or mentally but i still get picked!
5 yards or 5 years, he can't hit a barn door. Useless.
Looks like you were well beaten and still poor. No texts sent again so far this week. Glad we only have a couple more weeks to put up with this. I had a quiet word with next years manager candidate and he guarantees to shake things up a bit! He is well organised and has proven he has the club at heart.
I support next years manager candidate.
I have not been in a fit state for 30 years and yet I am still picked
Bring back Bully.
Suck my fucking cock you bunch of Cunts!!
So it's true then, we are getting a new manager for next season.
Nothing is true. It ia written.
If the drums are right, Big Ron is running the team Sunday. Thank fuck for that.
Wot team?
I've not been asked either, I'm not one of Dave's mates!
I'm in. We're going to smash them on Sunday. I can feel it.
i am available sunday
GAME OFF on Sunday Litlington could only raise 7.
Still there's June 10th to look forward to and a visit to St Albans for a summery game!
I was never asked to play anyway so you can all fuck off and ha ha ha wankers
Dave is to blame for the game being called off, get him out now!
Buntingford match report gives Knebworth referee high praise as best away ref of season. Dont tell Ron.
