Top notch result yesterday lads. Especially playing with just 10 men and Matt on the left.

I had a strange feeling as the second half wore on that we were going to get a goal. Thought it'd be Dave, but there was Rob with a cool head when we needed it. Mikey the MOTM results were, as far as I remember, Tony 3rd, Hilly 2nd and Beeny way out on top, and deservedly so, he didn't put a foot wrong all game. Paul Curtis too on the other side, other than a few nervy moments towards the end (fair enough, I was bricking it) had an immense game and didn't let much come down his side for the full 90 minutes. Crabbeman and Johnny Lamb for breaking up nearly everything they tried to do in midfield and Dave and Neil (and then Rob) for giving us all some decent breathing space whenever they got the ball. Not the best footy we'll ever play, but a brillian organised and disciplined performance by everyone.

Did have a slight panic attack last night when it struck me that something bad had actually happened to Dave Lewis, don't think the world has seen that before, but hopefully it will be okay.

They didn't like it up em did they? I expect we'll face a bit of an onslaught when we play them again, but it shows what we can do when we're all switched on, okay when 10 of us are switched on and on top of our game.

Hampstead Norreys at home next week, they're a good side, fairly established Div 1 team, so we'll need to work hard again, but no reason why we shouldn't be aiming for our 5th straight league win...
