FORMARTINE 3 HUNTLY 1
On a bonny night(Mon 24th May) for fitba we played our last 21`s game using our 19`s plus Gav Robertson in goal.
The pitch was in excellent condition and with the recent rain it took a stud nay problem, the groundsman must of worked a magic wand to have it looking so good. They play all 17`s, 19`s games there as well.
We played some very good fitba after a frantic opening 10 mins. We kept the ba and created chances at will, we forgot our shooting boots or the game would`ve been over by half time. I`d like to say the keeper made some great saves but he didna and we`d five one v ones that rolled the wrang side o the post.
We took a goal lead when Gav saved a point blank effort fae a corner we were slow to react to and he quickly thumped a clearance to gee Seamus a chance, he did the needful.
The second half was nay so good for us although we started strongly we again ran out of steam and we lost two goals in the closing 10 mins.
They got the leveler when we were on top and we`d three or four really good chances to put the game to bed again we rolled em wrang side o the post.
F-T 3-1
We`ll play worse than this and win that`s for sure.
Chay and myself canna understand how the lads can be so unfit at this time of the season after our mid-season enforced winter break. It`s obvious why we`re losing games late on, that`s aboot 5/6 we`ve played some really good stuff to either nay put the game to bed or ran oot o steam. Aye we`d another young side oot again the night but the fitness levels o some is WAY short of the required mark. It`s a pity cause we`ve played some very good fitba these past three months but abody looks at the results.
Thanks for the efforts o`er the season lads.
Bryan and Chay
