Real Wood 0 vs 0 Redstar Redland

Real Wood 0 vs 0 Redstar Redland
@ Frys

A terrific battling team performance to earn a well-deserved 0-0 draw against a team that 'dicked' us (apparently) last season. Mark's reverse psychology and organisation of the team brougtht out some tremendous performances. Louis had to make some excellently saves despite being well protected by a good defense and, like Batty took some knocks in the process. Man-of-the-match Tom returned with a vengeance and Jack and he played excellently together in the heart of the defence. Batty was also highly praised for his work on the left. Throughout the team there was lots of effort and we came pretty close to nicking it a couple of times. Mark worked hard on the pitch, organising and refereeing (loving it) and Kyle, Dave and Matt Pat all mucked in with some refereeing as well as contributing on the pitch. Teamwork!
We managed 12 players in the end so just survived but it was hard and hot. (I know).
I'm hoping our usual refs will be available for future matches which will ease the burden on everyone.
Thanks Jimmer for collecting the subs (and running off with it).
I had a brilliant day and we have a point already so we're way ahead of last season!!!
I'll send out a separate email for this Sunday's fixture.
