G.F.A CUP ROUND 1
OPPOSITION: QUAYSIDE RES
GROUND AWAY
Today we should have played in the other cup (Gilbert Pullin), but we had to play the
G.F.A game from last week.
We played Quayside twice last season and lost both games (1-3 and 6-1).
Like us they have swapped leagues this season, we checked out the current League Table,
and we are ahead of them.

- This gave us added confidence, as we won our last game, and if we win todays it
would be our first ever cup win.
-
- Mike our goalie was missing for todays game, so were Matt & Gary. Dave was
playing his first game since coming off injured a few games ago. We had a real ref.
-
They had centre, and the
pitch was quite heavy from all the recent rain, and this was to show, as during the game
about 5 of the corners from both teams were so bad they didnt come into play.
- We had shots and their keeper saved them, but nothing spectacular. Then about
30mins in to the
- game, Paul-S ran on to a throw-in by the half way line, kept on running, around a few
people and shot. Goal, Paul who was captain for this game also scored last time we played
Quayside.
-
- We got to half time and we were still one nil up, Rob said he wanted to get another goal
before making changes to the side, as he knew this cup game could have gone to extra time
and penalties if it wasnt won by the end of 90 minutes.
-
The second half started
and I dont think we got anywhere in the first 20 minutes, as they had the ball, but
werent really making any progress. Then we picked up again, and we had a few
shots by Dave, Rob and Paul-S. With about 5mins to go their keeper miskicked a
goal-kick, it went short. Andy pounced on it, miss-controlled it and back heeled it to
Dave, Dave went around a defender and shot Goal.
- Rob then brought on Stu and Ian, for Nick and Dave. With just about 4 minutes to go we
just had to hold on. We got the ball and Mark from midfield kicked the ball down the right
wing, Stu ran onto it, and put a cross towards Ian, but it was cut out. Ian got the last
touch of the game.
