We started this morning with 14 fit players and ryan at 50/50 making our 15 man squad up for the away trip to sorby way. We had quite a few players missing today which forced me into making quite a few changes to last weeks side.
So i went with a 4 5 1 formation breaking into 4 3 3 with the ball lineing up franny in goal the returning squires at rb rob in at lb with scott n kyle making up the bk 4, a first start for rougvie was on the right with the inform jake on the left, karl was holding, brunyee and tommo made up the midfield 3 parkey ad the job of loan striker,
From the kick off we got the ball down and played some good football, Using the wingers well on this huge pitch was key and the wingers didn't dissapoint everything was coming through them and it was no surprise that it was 1 of them who opened the scoring a great strike by jake from 18 yards out bottom right corner giving us a much deserved lead. A goal mouth scramble and header by scott gave us a 2 goal cushion continueing our good play we created quite a few chances but failed to make it count bramley wasnt troubling our bk 4 who was solid all way through the game limiting them to 25 yard strikes. our 3rd came from some great team play and sum great individual skill from brunyee who got into the box and delivered a pass on a plate for spanky to tap in his 2nd of the game.
bramley huffed and puffed but they couldnt blow our house down even when they was open to goal franny was equal to it pulling off a quality save ht come at the right time for us to just get our breath back and regroup
2nd half started same as the first with us passing the ball round well and creating a few chances but again missing a few easy chances that we should be scoring bramley came into a bit and ad a good 10 min spell were we was giving them far too much time on the ball and conceding silly free kicks fortunately we stood strong and defended as a team to sniff out any danger. Our 4th came from another set peice resulting in a goal mouth scramble which bounced out to brunyee who smashed a shot in that was blocked but landed to the leathel centre half who made no mistake from 10 yards out to make it 2 in 2 games for kyle. Time for 1st change of game it wasnt 1 i was planning but unfortunately squires picked up a injury and was unable to continue so on came malik for is thrybergh debut who slotted into cm and karl moved bk to rb. Game got a bit scrappy next 5 mins although we was looking good on the break we couldnt find another goal, so another change see's the hard working parkey removed from the field who will be dissapointed he didnt get himself on the score sheet today been replaced by 1st showing off the season conlon. It was bramley who scored next with a neat strike by there winger giving franny no chance at 4-1 we was still in control and should have made it 5/6 -1 if we had been a bit more precise with our final pass in the last 3rd. last change another debut appearance was abass on for the very hard working rougvie, the game seem to slow down and last 10 mins was a bit of a stalemate both teams just waiting for final whistle.
ft 4-1 another well deserved win that could have been more but as long as we keep putting points on board thats all that matters, some great performances today by every 1.
There will be changes to team thursday its a different type of opposition than the last 2 we have faced but im sure we can raise our game even more and take another valuable 3 points.
well done today boys great team spirit and will to win lets keep it up.
