22nd February 2010 (Amar)


The line-up:
 
Terry Sweeney, Andy Thomas, Graham Foster, Rob Songhurst, Richard Standrig, Phil Wall, Amar Sharma, Alex Young , Alex Hamilton, Scott Wilson, Justin Edwards
 
And
 
The Boss, Ed, watching from the sidelines.
 
The Other 7pm crowd had a turn-out of six so requested a match.
 
They were very confident and only requested two of our players.
 
Nobody was volunteering so Amar & Richard went over.
 
It was a tight match and the first goal was a long time coming and it went to them.
 
Scott then equalized and it looked for a long while that it would be a draw but a quick double blow and they were 3-1 up and that is how the match finished.
 
The man of the match has to go to Amar, what a performance in goal for the others, sealed the victory with many fine saves. Common guys, lets face it, he probably won't get the man of the match playing in any other position, so we'll let him have it this week.

15th February 2010 (Phil Wall)


The Line-up:
 
New Player for us: Andy Thomas( introduced by Justin-well done).
 
Justin Edwards, Graham Foster, Amar Sharma, Terry Sweeney, Alex Young, Phil Wall, Rob Songhurst.
 
Only 8 so we played the other 7pm crowd.
 
To even things up, I asked for their best two players.
 
The match started off very tight, difficult to score but then we were 2 up, they came back to 2-1 but we held firm and ran out winners 4-3.
 
Our man of the match by far was Phil Wall: good possession in tight areas, travelled well with the ball shrugging off challenges and the icing on the cake: 'two fantastic goals'-well played.

8th February 2010 (David)


The line up:
 
David Williams
Amar Sharma
Graham Foster
Alex Hamilton
Rob Songhurst
Terry Sweeney
Justin Edwards
 
The snow was flowing through the night sky like snow flows through the night sky.
 
We played the other 7pm crowd and borrowed 2 of their players to even things up on all levels.
 
We held our own and were leading 3-0 until fatigue set in and they ran out easy winners.
 
David Williams was our man of the match- excellent goal keeping.
 
The snow stopped and we moved to the Rose & Crown for beers and chat.
