07.05 Cumnor Minors v Deddington TC Cheatahs (Win 8-3)

I hope everybody enjoyed this game, ignoring the game itself and the result!

What I particularly enjoyed was Jerry a good manager who did football for the right reasons for the boys. His respectful parents and the excellent boys. It was Cheeters last game (sorry) and I was genuinely sorry today to see one of the good teams with good guys fold. We have had some enjoyable games - The dodgy pitch away which was in retrospect fun. The dodgy pitch at home due to torential rain during the night which meant we played on the extended postage stamp. Particularly after I slagged their pitch so much!

We started well going 2-0 up after 15 minutes with goals from Harry and Grant. Then they seemed to explore the frailties in our defensive formation with Harry scoring at 22 minutes to finish HT 3-3. We looked all at sea after the heavy rain last night and finished the half accordingly. A deserved result at the end of HT a close fought half.

After a revamped formation to start the 2nd half and some strong words on closing down, we were renewed. We scored 5 we hit the post twice and the bar!

Flynn - 37mins
Cam - Delightful flick 47mins
Harry- Long shot I think 51mins - Hat Trick
Harry - 52mins
George Murphy was taken down in the box and should have taken the penalty but due to Harry chasing the club golden boot he took it and scored 56mins. (Half a goal allocated to George). - Penta Trick!

We saw the game out and deserved the win, but I have this nagging feeling of a good team lost to the league!

Thanks Jerry and his pacemakers a great bunch of boys.

Man of the match for his 5 goals was Harry BUT it was not all one man terrific performances by all, the game of football won today - Thank You.
