We were 3 men down as Dickie was ill, Ben was tidying his house and Neil had to go to a primary school play. The dedication of our team is 2nd to none but we were confident (kind of) with a healthy 2 goal lead from the 1st leg.
Newspaper reports of unrest with the team all day as we playing outside and it was cold was completely false! Dam journalists trying to unsettle us.
Once we again we went 1-0 up (forgotten who scored) and also once again the minute by minute analysis of the game is a blur.
Fergus was like a man possessed! That boy has got fitness (in every way ladies), he never came off the pitch once, didn't break a sweat and never stopped running! He stuck 4 in the onion bag to boot as well!
Gareth was once again a hero for the team! Including taking one right in the goolies from a shot that travelling at least 100mph. Apart from an error to end all errors, all i can say it will be on a Football Nightmares DVD next Christmas.
Steve was doing a sterling job in defence all night! Marshaling us all night and rifling one in from long range.
Barry hasn't lost his touch after all these years! he may have run out of fitness but the silky skills were still there! Including a delightful little flick into the net - his own net!
Captain David once again knocked in a hat trick and did some running around. His highlight was a lovely little back heel to set up Bern but after jarring his knee and being out on the jars the thursday, friday, saturday and sunday before it soon took it's toll!
Bernard was on top form and actually quite impressed a few heads watching. He knocked in 2 (it was 1 really but he's claiming an own goal) but last night he actually had a foot shaped like a 50p!
Final score was 17-15 to ENCAMS so we only lost by the 2 goals which was a decent effort by us.
We'll be back after Christmas for more of the same and this time football is coming home to Campaign House!!
