Ricay 2 Hornchurch 0

[jl]

Thought I'd start a new post as the amount of drivel on the other two is rather depressing and doesn't do anyone much credit.

 

I thought the first half was fairly even altho Hornchurch had the better chances choosing to hit the post from 2 yards instead of score.

 

In the second half I thought we were the better side and on the whole deserved the win that our recent performances have merited. I think that we did get the rub of the green today with the refereeing decisions but again thats rather overdue and whilst the pitch isnt exactly the best in the league i look forward to the urchins report after theyve visited ford's ground.

 

we seem to have stumbled upon a decent centre half pairing in dormer and redders (who i thought was excellent today) and russ played a captain's knock in midfield. The right hand side looks a bit shaky though and jones had a bit of a shocker altho to be fair he was up against keeling who is a top player at this level. we looked much more solid when ritchie came on in midfield.

 

hopefully this win will set us on our way and give the troups some confidence altho bedford is not the easiest place to go to get a result. wish george and gary all the best and look fwd to seeing them at the return game..i wonder how many ex ricay players they will have signed by then!!!! (its only a matter of time b4 essandoh pitches up there)

 

cmon the blues!!

And it takes a level head to bring it all down to earth. Good report jl, fair, which is wht we expect from U.

 

My man of the match was Redders. As U say, played very well and 3 of the back four put my thoughts of a insecure defence to rest. Sam Taylor is also looking very good and is growing in his role as left back.

What Game Were You Watching ! You Were Never The Better Side, We Were In Your Half All The Time In Both Half's ! But Somehow Most Of The Time We Were In Your Area, The Ref Blew His Whistle And Gave You Freekicks !

Face it you lost get over it. The ref was pretty poor but if you want go back to where you belong in the ESL and find out what refs are like down their as you probably dont know as you probably hadnt even heard of Hornchurch FC a few years ago when they were playing in the ESL. Luck with the dire refs at this level even themsevles out over the season and we have had some shockers this season.

Yes We Lost, But We'll Win Against You Next Time ! The Ref Was Worse Than Poor !

[Ricay boy]

It was a very good match I thought. We were the better team by far.
