Olney 2 Wootton 1
We don't do things the easy way that's for sure, lady luck once again appeared to be against us, another week where we should have walked off at half time two or three goals to the good, we hit the woodwork three times in the first half. As it was we came off all square, Toff netting his 3rd of the season. (great assist from Calvin)With no outfield subs it was a big concern that tiredness could prove to be a huge factor in this game, thankfully not the case. We played great football in spells and you all demonstrated the willingness to roll your sleeves up and get stuck in when the need arose. Some tremendous tackling today (Jake) and some fantastic last ditch tackles. (Calvin & Fred). Wootton were a decent side, we weathered their onslaughts and broke with confidence, Toff probably a bit guilty of lacking composure in the 18 yard box at times. Our pace yet again caused the opposition all kinds of trouble and our deliveries from dead balls were superb, Harry also putting in some great early crosses. With three minutes to go you really got the impression that we would not get the rewards our endeavours merited, thankfully this was not the case ! Jake knocked a great ball over the top and for once Toff hit his shot early, rattling the crossbar on the way in. No better way to silence his nemesis or his critics. We have a great squad, a great spirit and a tremendous attitude towards the game, keep it up. Man of the match went to Fred but there was once again three or four players out there today playing at the top of their game. (Jake, Calvin, Harry, Ben A) 'Special mention for Jon Holt, great performance running the line in difficult circumstances' Others teams will be taking note of our recent form, lets keep this up, everything we have achieved we have genuinely worked for, lets keep the momentum going.
