22nd March 2010 (Terry)

Following the 'cock-up of a match report' last week, in which Terry Sweeney played as the invisible man, Alex Hamilton played with his twin brother(also called alex hamilton) and Scott Wilson never got any recognition for his opening goal, please read the disclaimer below, any problems then feel free to contact the legal department.

 

DISCLAIMER: 'This match report and all subsequent match reports are ONLY a version of actual events and as a direct consequence do not bear any resemblance to real events or the actions of persons either living or dead'. 

 

The line-up: David Williams, Graham Foster, Justin Edwards, Rob Songhurst, Terry Sweeney, Alex Young, Phil Wall, Alex Hamilton, Amar Sharma and Mark Stares.

 

Wow what a team performance-fantastic.

 

The 'others' only had 6 so asked us for yet another match, amar and mark went over.

 

You guys played a superb match, as a team, it was like watching Barcelona the free flowing football, just magnificent. any more free flowing then it might have been Imodium all round for you guys.

 

You scored first second and third 3-0 up. We could not live with your passing and movement.

 

However you relaxed and we pulled 2 back 3-2 and with seconds to go amar was put through would he square it up? NO he brought his banana foot to a strikers party!

 

Just so you know I was trying to score. you ran out 3-2 winners.

 

Man of the Match: Goals by Alex Y, Phil Wall And Alex H but a very good team performance. In fact you all played so well it is very difficult to pick a man of the match so against all the odds Amar...... Alright, Alright. Looking at all your players I have to say that Terry Sweeney had a vey good game and worked very hard for you guys, so well done Terry you are the man of the match and have one hand on that champers bottle.

15th March 2010 (Alex Young)

The Line-up: John Weedon, David Williams, Mark Stares, Justin Edwards, Amar Sharma, Andy Thomas, Rob West, Graham Foster, Alex Hamilton, Scott Wilson, Alex Hamilton.

 

The 'others' only had 7 so they asked for a game, as it was 9 against 9 we played 3/4 of the full size pitch. Graham and Rob went over.

 

The game was fractious I think both teams were put off their stride with the change in pitch size.

 

They scored first second and third, 3-0 But we came back to 3-2 with 2 great goals from Alex h and Alex y.

 

The size on the pitch took it's toll on them because they were slowing and heads were dropping and it the last few seconds Scott was clear through on their goal he hits will it be all square? no their keeper saves.

 

They ran out 3-2 winners.

 

John Weedon played a fantastic games between the sticks and some fantastic saves.

 

Man of the match: Alex Hamilton and Scott Wilson put in a good shift up front and John Weedon did play a blinder in goal BUT one player ran his lungs out for the team up and down he took some pressure off our defence with his play. You would not believe it BUT Alex Young wins the man of the match for the second week running. Well played a good performance and well deserved. Alex Young is in pole position to win the champagne at the end of this 10 week stint!

8th March 2010 (Alex Young)

The line-up:

Harvey Griffiths, Justin Edwards, Amar Sharma, Mark Stares, Alex Young, Alex Hamilton, Terry Sweeney and

New Guy Rob West ( intro by Mark-well done Mark).

 

What a cold cold night, good match and performance.

 

The other 7pm crowd only had 7 so they asked for a match- we said yes with confidence.

 

They scored 1st and then got another but our captain Alex Hamilton kept us going and tried to organise us and we got one back.

 

They had youth, pace, movement we had lack of stamina, tired limbs and signs of ageing!

 

But we all put in a good performance we brought it back to 5-5 but school boys errors cost us in the end and they ran out winners 7-5.

 

I think we did well but, we engineered our own downfall, we need to talk more to each other and organise better- if so we could have won!

 

Man of The Match- Against all the odds and for the third week running Am........ Only JOKING guys.

 

Alex Hamilton had a great match, good work rate, verbals and excellent movement- perhaps if we listen to him a bit more then maybe......

 

However for a superb shift up-front two excellent goals and tireless running up and down well done to Alex Young great performance and all this on his birthday.

1st March 2010 (Amar)

The two teams:

 

Alex Hamilton                                                                   Graham Foster

Amar Sharma                                                                    Phil Wall

Alex Young                                                                       Scott Wilson

Terry Sweeney                                                                  Richard Standring

Rob Songhurst                                                                  Andy Thomas

Harvey Griffiths                                                                  Justin Edwards.

 

What a match!

 

It started tight and it looked like there would not be many goals but then Scott opened the scoring for Graham's team and before we knew it Graham's team were 3-0 up, what a shock.

 

It looked like Alex's team were in for a hammering BUT Alex did not let his teams heads drop he kept them going and then Amar popped up with a fantastic strike to open the way for a new surge from Alex's team.

 

Every goal keeper that Graham put in made some excellent saves.

 

Alex's team scored again and at 3-2 the tide weas turning BUT then a fantastic goal from Phil from a corner and it was 4-2.

 

Alex hamilton then scored a long range cracker and it was 4-3.

 

Phil then had a rush of blood and prevented a clear goal scoring opportunity and everyone called foul(except Phil of course).

 

Alex Young Stepped up and put the pen. away and it was 4-4.

 

Tense.

 

With 5 mins. to go Alex's team scored again and were leading 5-4 BUT this only gave Graham's team renewed energy, no doubt angry with themselves for letting a 3-0 lead slip.

 

Phil was clear on goal and only had Amar the keeper to beat, surely he would score and share the spoils BUT NO what a brilliant save from Amar.

 

Alex's team ran out 5-4 winners. What a fantastic match, great turnout( 6 vs. 6 is what we need every week).

 

The man of the match can only go to one player for his outstanding all round performance. He scored the first goal for Alex's team and opened the flood gates, made many crucial defensive tackles and made the last minute superb save to stop Phil from equalizing, a match winning performance- Yes the first man to win 'man of the match' 2 weeks in a row, well done Amar-at this rate he could be voted M.V.P and get the bottle of champagne at the end of the 10 week stint.

See you all next week.
