I can't believe...

Post by BartonRaz »

How bad Hayes & Yeading are for a team that aren't really in any danger of relegation.

From start to finish it was like men against boys. I honestly think Wellingborough or Raunds would have put up a better fight. It could easily have been much more, as we had plenty of one-on-ones.

Tomlin's goal was something special. Took the ball from one side of the pitch to the other, before lobbing the keeper when it looked like he had no-where to go. He also set 2 up. Both Farrell's goals were good too, the second one inparticular was a great solo goal.

The attendance was pathetic, and so was the ground in all honesty, but obviously i enjoyed my day!

Did they give a match attendance? I would have thought we made up a third of the ground.

Came over (randomly) to the Diamonds fans and threw his gloves to the crowd (Godber caught them). It wasn't behind the goal it was on the side of the pitch when the players were gathering in the centre for a briefing.
