St Michaels however still had a couple of chances with Jack Jolly unluckily heading against the post.with a minute to go. The final score was 2 – 2.
Whilst St Michaels were disappointed to drop 2 points they did not play badly on a very poor pitch and but for their finishing they would have won comfortably.
Good performance in goal from Harry Graham but Man of the Match this week goes to Harry Smart with a faultless display coming it at Centre Half.
