League – 13th October 2002
We arrived at Woking's ground for our 10am K/O very tired after the previous nights karaoke, (mental note - don't have a do before an early K/O). We started the game very confidently, fully stretching their defence on numerous occasions. Unfortunately we couldn't find the net, and started getting frustrated. On a rare occasion they visited our half from a free kick. A.Bitmead (our keeper) collected the ball comfortably, then saw him make a rare mistake. Somehow the ball fell out of his hands and ended up in the net!!!. I couldn't believe we were a goal down after having so much possession.The half time whistle came and we were 1 down. A brief talk and all the team knew this was a game we needed to turn around and find the net! This soon came, a swift move down the right handside saw Robert Appleyard play fine ball to Chris Stevens. He rounded the defender and crossed it to Arran Quain, who on his debut smashed the ball into the goal - 1-1. Now we started to knock the ball around with confidence, pulling their defence all around. It was only a matter of time before we scored the winner. A corner was knocked out by their defence and on the edge of the area was Arran again to rifle home the winner - 2-1.
Overall, a good performance and a good win! ( to save Arran's blushes we won't mention the open goal he missed at the end. He said that as it was his debut he didn't want to take all the glory by scoring a hat-trick). But it was very pleasing to see the players perform to such a high level. We are at home to Worcester Park Colts this Sunday 10am K/O in the Surrey Cup and it would be nice to see a few new faces there to support the team.
A.Bitmead, J. Knight. T. Hughes. D. Bruce. L. Kitchiner. T. Franklin. J. Brown. R. Appleyard. L. Cole. C.Stevens. M. Duho. C. Barham. R. Baba-Taher. oh and A, Quain nearly forgot about him !
