2005 has begun as 2004 had ended, we were late to wake up from too much Christmas fayre and after an even first ten minutes gifted Gorleston 2 quick goals to put ourselves on the backfoot straight away. We then managed to pull a goal back through a good break with Oliver M finishing his opportunity well, we then conceded another sucker punch goal to end the half 3 - 1 down, although the score did not reflect the closeness of the 2 teams. The second half continued with another disappointment although we ended up losing the game by 4 - 3, we once again dominated the half and failed to convert the many chances we created. Our 2 goals came from Kirby G and Curtis B and Gorleston's goal came from a deflected free kick, Gorleston also deserve credit for there defending, and a combination of the woodwork and good goalkeeping resulted in another defeat. This weeks MOM was just won by Oliver M, and there were good performances from Curtis B, Kirby G & Bailey O, Danny E and Ashley H did well from the bench when they came on. Finally it was a good performance from Ben C in goal when he had to come on early to replace Brandon F who was injured early on and could not continue.
