| Match Report |
4ths final game of the season was away to the comfortable winners of our division, Kingswinford 3rds. Our opponents started the game intent on emphasising their superiority and it was only a outstanding performance from Steve Rowlands in goal that kept the score down to 0 - 4 at half time. Knowing we were outclassed, the half time team talk emphasised the need for determination and effort as opposed to capitulation. The response of the team was tremendous. Steve continued his heroics in goal and we all worked a bit harder and as well as some robust defending succeeded in creating a number of scoring opportunities and disrupted our opponents fluency. Two goals came for us, firstly from Barry Townsend and then from his son Fin - a good family day out! Kingswinford managed another 2 goals of their own, but a scoreline of 2-2 for second half was well a deserved reward for the effort and commitment of the whole team. So a 2 - 6 loss overall. Unanimous man of the match was Steve Rowlands. And so on to next season.........
