Having been in fotoball for more than 60 years I cannot recall any team leading 3-0 after 30mins and then go on and lose the game 6-3, it is just unbelieveable. We quickly took the laed through Jack Bryant following a sweeping move and then ten minutes later Jack was quickest to react in the box to double our lead. When debutant Jack Mills was first on hand when their keeper spilled a Greeno free kick you would have though that the game was over but how wrong you would have been. With five minutes to go to half time we failed to close down a short corner and the cross/come shot found the top corner. Then on the stroke of half tome we allow a loose ball to drop in the box and the Sidmouth striker applied the finishing touch.
It is not being too harsh to say that we simply did not turn up for the second half as we were outplayed by our youthful opponents who were able to score 4 goals without a response, in fact i don’t recall their keeper having to make a save.
We travel to Welton Rovers in the FA Vase on Saturday and if we perform like that we will have major problems but hopefully the players will be desperate to put this performance to bed.
