Aveley Academicals A – A Stanford Town (Division 1 cup semi final)

I can’t give many details about this match, mainly because I was busy running 13.1 miles around the streets of Bath, but also because the outcome of the referee’s decision to abandon the match after 75 minutes, with the Accies 3-1 down, is still to be revealed.

Subs: Jake, Scott


I do know that Liam scored our goal – which actually put us in the lead – after following up a saved shot on goal by (? – assist to be claimed).  I also know that Gordon Banks made an appearance, but unfortunately it was far too brief to make up for Foggy’s absence, who had swapped green for white as he helped Belhus CC win the ECB National Indoor Championship.  Huge congratulations to our skipper, although reading the report of the semi and final suggests we needed him more than Belhus did.  Watch the video clip in the following link and you’ll see his main contribution seemed to be over-the-top celebrating and taking over the group photo-shoot.



I also believe Brian received the MoTM award.  Apparently he has asked for a permanent switch to left back - I can't hear any objections...
