League Match 26/09/09
Pot Black F.C- 1
Kirkley 'A'- 0
Match Overview- Obviously there's been a slight delay this week as I've only just returned from a week away in the Lake District where the wife & I enjoyed the freedom of nature (pictured left).
P.B were left in the capable hands of L'Orange Legends Kev Sherwood and Ross Molby-Jones with The Crab doing the donkey work, paper etc.
The opposition were sporting the strongest Kirkley 'A' side that any of the home side had ever witnessed with Chris Mayhew, Steven Greenleaves, Darren Glynn, Shane Ward and Danny Tacon lining up for the Royals to name but a few.
Robbed of so many players, the home side proved once again that their large squad is not a luxury but a necessity, despite contrary comments from opponents in recent weeks.
Captain Darren Boyd returned in the nick of time to sure up the back line, with Paul Taylor, Jordan Wardrope and Adam Bird joining the party also.
Pot Black scored the only goal of a tight match against their arch rivals when Ian Wilson scored a delightful chip over the keeper against his former side just before the break to the plaudits of his team mates.
Despite Kirkley's unusually poor start to the season, we know that 3 points off the Royals is a fine 3 points in deed, highlighted even more so by the low from which we needed to lift ourselves from! Well Done lads I cheered so loud I nearly fell off a mountain!!
Goals- Ian Wilson
G.H.Windows & Doors M.O.M- Vinny Terry, Tireless from start to finish.
