BRNESC LOST AGAIN TO PINEWOODS BY THE SAME SCORE AS THE PREVIOUS WEEK 5 2 BUT THE SCORE LINE DIDNT REFLECT THE GAME AT ALL,
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN WEEKS BRNESC HAD PRCTICALLY THEIR FIRST ELEVEN ON SHOW BUT KEEPER PROBLEMS REQUIRED JAY HULME TO DON THE KEEPERS GLOVES.
JAY WAS CALLED INTO ACTION IN THE 5 MIN PALMING A SHOT ROUND THE POST FOR A CORNER.BRNESCV WENT THE OTHER END AND JOE STEPHENS SENT JOE PAELE DOWN THE FLANK AND HIS CROSS WAS NARROWLY HEADED OVER THE BAR BY RITCHIE ROBBO THEN HAD A FIRCE SHOT DEFLECTED WIDE AND A FINE MOVE BETWEEN RITCHIE AND JOE STEPHENS ENDED WITH A SHOT NARROWLY WIDE OF THE POST,BRNESC WERE TAKING THE GAME TO PINEWOODS AND WERE ON TOP
A GOAL HAD TO COME AND IN THE 20 MIN ACE SHARPSHOOTER RITCHIE CAMPBELL CAME UP WITH THE GOODS TURNING IN JOE STEPHENS CROSS PAST THE HELPLESS KEEPER 1 0 BRNESC
BRNESC WERE WEL WORTH THEIR LEAD AS SHELLSHOCKED PINEWOODS WERE REELINGAND RITCHIE NEARLY MADE IT 2 0 BUT HIS SHOT WAS STRAIGHT AT THE KEEPER ,JAY HULME THEN MADE A POINT BLANK SAVE TO PREVENT PINEWOODS NETTING.WHIT THEN MISSED A GLORIOUS OPPORTINITY ,SENT CLEAR WITH ONLY THE KEEPER TO BEAT HE PUT HIS EFFORT WIDE
WITHIN A MINUTE BRNESC WERE TP PAY FOR THAT MISS WHEN JAY,WHO HASD COPED WELL IN GOAL COMPLETELY MISJUDGED A TAME EFFORT AND MADE NO ATTEMPT TO GATHER THE BALL THINKING IT WAS GOING OVER, IT FLOATED OVER HIS HEAD AND DROPPED INTO THE NET 1 1!!
BRNESC RESPONDE WLL AND RITCHIE WAS INCHES WIDE WITH A SHOT AND THEN ROBBO WAS UNLUCKY WHEN HIS HEAED WAS JUST OVER THE BAR WITH THE KEEPER BEATEN
RIGHT ON THE HALF A DISPUTED FREE KICK WAS AWARDED TO PINEWOODE EDGE OF THE BOX AND JAY IN ATTEMPTING TO PUSH THE BALL WIDE PUSHED IT OUT TO A LURKING PINEWOODS PLAYER TO BANG IT IN TO THE NET 2 1 PINEWOODS,
AT THE HALF THE GAME HAD BEEN TURNED ON ITS HEAD PIEWOODS WHO HAD BEEN SECOND BEST THROUGHOUT THE FIRST HALF WERE SOMEHOW LEADING 2 1 BOTH GOALS SELFINFLICTED ,IT WAS A BITTER BLOW TO BRNESC.
BRNESC STARTED AT A FAST PACE AND IN THE FIRST 5 MINS NEARLY SCORED FIRST RITCHIES SHOT WAS SAVED THEN WHIT SHOT NARROWLY WIDE AND THE KEEPER TIPPED RITCHIES GOALBOUND SHOT OVER THE BAR BEFORE CHRIS BELL NETTED FROM RITCHIES FLICK 2 2
JOE PARLE THEN SENT WHIT CLEAR BUT HE COULD ONLY HIT THE POST WITH THE KEEPER BEATEN PINEWODS WENT THE OTHER END AND MADE IT 3 2 !!
JOE PARLE THEN CROSSED FOR RITCHIE WHOSE SHOT WAS WEAK AND STRAIGHT AT THE KEEPER IT WAS DEJAVEAU AS PINEWOODS BROKE AND MADE IT 4 2!!
THE SAME PATTERN OCCURED AGAIN WHEN THE KEEPER SAVED WELL FROM RITCHIE AND ALMOST IMMEDIATELY THEY WENT AND MADE IT 5 2 !!
IN THE LAST 5 MINS BRNESC HAD 3 MORE CHANCES THROUGH JOE P ,WHITAND MICK O AND TOOK NONE OF THEM AT THE END 5 2 TO PINEWOODS
IT WAS A BITTER PILL FOR BRNESC TO SWALLOW THEY HAD LOST A GAME TO THE LEAGUE LEADERS 5 2 THEY HAD MORE OF THE GAME ,HAD MORE CHANCES AND IN MY OPINION SHOULD HAVE WON THE GAME ,JOE STEPHENS JUST SHADED MOM WITH RITCHIE ,JOE P AND ROBBO IN CONTENTIONWE MOST BUILD ON THIS DISPLAY FOR THE FORTCOMING CAMPAIGN
