e Brit hosted 2nd Division Stourbridge Glassboys this morning and were subjected to their heaviest defeat as an open age team.
Stourbridge were in a different class in every department and were easily the best team we have ever encountered. They are obviously in a false league as a new team to the Kiddy League and would undoubtedly compete well in the top division.
Several of their team play at a high level on a Saturday and their class throughout was more than we could compete with.
Saying that, in the 1st half, we pressed the self destruct button, with several players showing poor discipline, almost giving up and arguing amongst themselves. This is not what I have come to expect from this team. After strong wiords at half time, we did at least play out the 2nd half and regain some pride, but overall, the display was completely unacceptable.
We can only hope that players take the defeat and conversation at the end of the game and turn it into a positive outcome in our forthcoming games.
We are away to Queens Head next week who are currently in 2nd place, a win is an absolute must if we are to have any chance of catching them.
Other results in the league today mean we remain in 5th place.
