Christmas came early for Maggies youth as the Northampton Utd reserves back line played santa to gift goals galore at Dally Park. The day had started badly for the Wombles with talismanic striker Scott Eason not turning up for the game due to being involved in a lock in at Auntie Ruths, and a lock in at his house while he explained to his misses where he had been til 6am! The game was then delayed while a shovel was found so Nasal could get some dog sh;t off the pitch!
Utd didn’t start too badly but shipped some terrible goals with first Fraser losing his man from a free kick for a free header and then Jase deciding he was the wizard of dribble only to be dispossessed on the touchline providing Maggies with the opening to put them 2 goals ahead. Another goal followed with man of the moment Robinho replying for the Wombles after pressurising the keeper. He should also have had a penalty if he had gone down when fouled but the referee who wanted to be the star of the show decided contact wasn’t justification enough for one!
Second half came and 5 minutes of madness saw the Wombles concede another 3 as Jase gave away his customary Dally Park penalty after the ref decided that now contact wasn’t needed for a decision – just intent! Jase then decided that Kris was a quick and agile keeper and after a number of under hit back passes put us in trouble, Maggies finally scored from one as the orange keeper jogged out of his goal and was beaten by the striker to make it 5 – 1.
The more experienced players in the side sensed it was time to put a foot on the ball and keep possession to regain some composure. From kick off the ball was played back to Nasal whose attempted pass to Flaser bounced off his shin directly to the Maggies striker who made no mistake. A joke goal to end a joke day.
Most of the lads still had enough energy to make it to the Xmas meal with more energy going into getting into the que for the carvery than had been displayed by most players on the pitch. The Gaffa lewy did well to keep himself seperate from the players as he decided to go for a walk in the woods instead of attending the lads get together.
