DATE TYPE FIXTURE GOAL SCORERS
29.11.2008 EDYL Stoke Hill Juniors v Twyford Tots

 

Stoke Hill started very strong and an incredible first goal came within the first minute of play. This set the tone for the fixture. Unfortunately, tired legs and cold hands set in early and without the luxury of substitutes Twyford struggled to hold their own as Stoke Hill Juniors continued to dominate most of the play.

A brave effort from Max Rendall proved too much and he had to come off, later in the half Jay Stansfield picked up an injury and also had to have an early exit. Twyford battled on, but Aaron Long and Holly Rendall also picked up knocks and required treatment.

At half time, the game was almost abandoned, but Stoke Hill Juniors kindly offered to provide some of their squad so that the game could continue. The highlight of the second half was a superb penalty saved by Ryan Morgan.

Everyone worked extremely hard, never giving up or getting despondent at conceding goals. The players did themselves, their team and the club extremely proud in very difficult circumstances.
