So, are we ready for the season ahead?
Not on the second half performance!! We enjoyed the fact that we where playing this friendly on Tottenham Ladies Ground. Really good pitch….not for the likes of us….too flat….we are used to some other sort of ‘flats’!!!
However the first half was a really encouraging half for us all. At 0 v 0 we had all put in a good 45 minute shift. Without the manager going off the rails for 2 mins the half could almost be called perfect. Trevor in goal….superb!! (Watch out Steve!) Yet we matched the Champs. They had 2 chances that I guess once the season starts they would have snapped up, however they didn’t.
The second half, well, the boss made a number of changes to make sure everyone got a game and that seemed to upset the balance. As it was a role on role off system it became a little confusing.
Sam B played his heart out in the first half with a cold, Rowen, one of our new signings playing at centre half was feeling dizzy at the start, yet I wish I could play as well as he did in the first half normally, let alone being dizzy.
Well on the whole it was a good run out. Nathanael scoring our goal with a delightful chip over the goalie. Throughout the game we did try to pass the ball on the snooker table like pitch... I guess its back to a bouncy, wobbly pitch down at the Flats we know so well.
Lets go down to Dagenham and take on Cavendish on 30th Aug with the first half in mind. And erase the second half from our minds.
Blackhorse Rd were very kind for NOT rubbing it in at training on the following Tuesday!!
