MOM : Winners
With half the squad deciding they couldn’t play because it was Christmas, the Wombles faced an uphill struggle with no players, no keeper and no ref!
A mini mutiny before the match was also very unhelpful, the game needed to be played as we had enough players to put the match on and it wasn’t going to be fun in freezing conditions but eventually the match was on after a 30 min delay waiting for someone to ref.
The Wombles started badly and things didn’t get much better. The opposition were looking for revenge after we took points off them earlier in the season and they got it, scoring 7 with no reply forthcoming.
Fair play to Jase for going in goal, he made some great saves and really took one for the team. Winners also did well and Flaser’s “Huigita” style goal line clearances are going to become stuff of legend. Not once but three times he cleared it off the line with his spaghetti legs up and over his head. Excellent stuff.
A terrible day for football was followed by a 0 – 0 draw for the Cobblers in freezing conditions. Merry bloody Christmas!
Should never have been played.
