DATE 21st Dec 2003
OPPOSITION The Troopers
GROUND Home
Gilbet Pullin & Jelf Ins. Cups
 
Aaron Clifford GoalWhat a game. This was just the thing we needed to end the year with and hopefully build from this convincing win over a higher division team. The first 10 minutes we had attack after attack, but just couldn’t get the ball in the net.
Aaron Clifford got us underway scoring his first goal of the season, he had such a good game the manager gave Aaron his mKevin Downes 1st Goalan of the match vote.
 
Kevin Downes who was playing his 50th game for the club for the 2nd time (! (Had to have a game taken off his stat’s as a team had pulled out of the league)) scored two goal’s to double his tally for this season, his other 2 goal’s came in the first cup game 3 months ago. (sorry to mention that Kev!)
 
Free Kick, which Andy scored from, but off side.Andy Cooke was unluckily not to get his 72nd league and cup goal for the club, we took a nice (planed) free kick, which Andy scored from, but the Ref said we had about 3 players off side. Andy was a bit upset, as they we’re not interfering with play.
 
It wasn’t as easy as I might have mentioned, Troopers did actually hit our cross bar twice
 
Man of the match was a tough choice, with every player playing well. The votes were spread out among lots of different players. Dave Willett won it, well he did assist all of our three goals.
