A quick match report as Ali was supposed to write it but he has been too smacked up on goof balls this week!
The Wombles returned to the scene of their only league victory with Eason returning to the starting lineup in place of Ben and JJ coming straight back in for Lee. The ressies took the lead against the run of play with a neat finish at the near post from Super Scott Eason on around 15 minutes. Nasal went off injured shortly after but Jim Harris drunkenly stepped into his shoes and did a sound job meaning there was little disruption.
The team continued to defend well whilst also creating chances at the other end without capitalising. Half time came with the score 1 – 0 and the concern was that the blues hadn’t taken their chances when they came. The second half saw Eason add two long range strikes to his tally proving that you don’t have to run to score goals.
Ali (who had been struggling since the first minute) came off to be replaced by Lee and Rob came on for the tiring Maloney who had played his best game for the club (trying to impress his father in law!). Shortly after the Royals pulled a goal back and Slinky went apoplectic calling everyone c@nts!
The Wombles road out the game with Jase again lucky to stay on the pitch with a number of “experienced” tackles finding the mark.
MOM : Scott Eason – Yards run 6, goals 3. Economical stuff from the big man!
