Olney 1 - Bromham Youth Pumas 1

A good result, a good game and a fitting end to a very good season. Bromham were a strong side who grew in confidence as the game progressed. Our seventh draw of the season leaves us having W9 - D7 - L4, a pretty good return and probably a fair reflection on our performances over the season. It would have been easy to wind down before we got around to playing this match, thankfully that was not the case. We started well and played the better football in the first half, whilst chances were few and far between we took the lead through an absolute belter from Jamie.......................................................35 yards out. (trust me this has got further out as the night has gone on, now he is in bed I can write the match report it peace). Bromham raised their game in the second half and to be honest put us under a huge amount of pressure, the back four and Mr Brown stood fast and defended bravely. It was unfortunate that they equalised in the way that they did, a very dubious penalty, all said and done we probably had all our luck with penalties last week. I have said from the start that this is probably a foundation season for the team, if we can build on this next season we are capable of winning promotion. You have all played some fantastic football, I think that you have matured as a team and the positive communication between you all is great. For me personally it has been fantastic, you have been a joy to train , a pleasure to manage and great to watch at times. Take a bow one and all, 2008/2009 was fantastic, lets see what 2009/2010 has in store.
