The second half was the best we have played this season against a very good footballing side, the scoreline flattered us slightly, saying that their keeper made several good saves on the day. There were some very good performances out their today, Havo, Josh D, the two wingers, manager Sean Hackett was very pleased with the team performance, he thought Joey had a very good game but his man of the match on the day was Wis.
