Rose Tree FC

Playing Old Man Tommy we needed a win just to keep pace. We have not lost all summer and our streak needs to continue. We started the game a bit sloppy and there was not much action by both teams. I know Tommy really wanted this one as he brought 18 guys with him. They have not beaten us in the last 6 outings. We once again had to play without Kevin and adding to our woes, Cropper and Ian were out. However with 5 left in the first half Richie spots Chris on a run down the left flank and Mr.Lynch left foots a volley and BANG 1-0. Half The second half saw us take over. 15 minutes in Tor who was incredible from 30 yards out rifles us to a 2-0 lead. We gained momentum and Super Greek Harry went on a break twice only to be stopped by the keeper. Of-course you know it, Jol comes down and bang 2-1. Here we go. Then the Foot of God. They win a corner. Ely who is a specialist takes it and it was perfect, drops in on the 6 they strike it past Calamity and Bradley stops it on the goal line and holds for us our 2-1 lead. Again we gain momentum back and again it's Tor who this time finds Richie and 3-1. They pressed which means they were exposed and Harry this time finds Rooney on a breakaway and 4-1. We hold , game match. !!! :)))))) Great stuff boys, we will await the other results. Enjoy but not for too long. We play the Reds next week, w/o Tor, Tommy Mc, Ben, and I think Bradley. Old Man Tommy swears it the yellow shirts that are throwing them off. LOL
