9/2/08 V East Hoathly February 10, 2008
Posted by editor in : Uncategorized , trackbackWe entertained our good friends from East Hoathly on a bright warm morning at West Park.
Missing three regular players due to party committments, Happy Birthday Calum!!, we gave a debut to Cameron and Ben from the U9s was in goal.
Both Flames and Arrows continued their improved form and all four matches were quite close.
Flames narrowly lost the first match 4-3 having been 4-1 down and looked close to equalising before time ran out. The prolific King brothers banged in the goal again with Jack getting 2 and Harry the other. The second game was a 3-0 loss, but again the team worked hard with Ben excelling in goal with a string of great saves. Lots of good football and plenty to give encouragement. Kyle Emberton Westlake was named Player of the Match.
Arrows had similar results. After a slow start losing the first match 2-0, they recovered to put in a far better performance in the second match. it was an entertaing match with East Hoathly taking a 2 goal lead before Arrows hit back with a fine strike from the returning Jordi Southgate and then another goal from the captain Tom Chown. Unfortunately East Hoathly scored in the dying seconds to snatch the win when a draw would have been the fairest result. Lilly Smith tackled like a demon to continue her excellent progress and was voted Player of the Match.
We finished the morning with an 11 a side game that finished 0-0.
Many thanks to EastHoathly for a great morning of football.
Wadhurst are the next visitors and our squad will be strengthened by the returning players.
