Knaphill started like they played on Monday but were far and away the better side second half and we were without doubt hanging on at the end. We were lacklustre and will have to improve considerably next Saturday with Guernsey travelling to our place.

Just for Redders!....

Spelthorne 3 v 4 Eversley & California

A truly thrilling game for the neutral…. albeit heart stopping for those involved with both sides!

After just two minutes and twenty blinks it was 1 all. Baker after 18 seconds and a home reply moments later-both goals one on ones.

After some soul searching before the game though this was a bounce back performance from the Boars after such a poor bank holiday Monday showing. Taking on previously unbeaten Spelthorne proved to be the perfect hangover cure with the knowledge that nothing other than A games from each and every player would suffice.

 

(…..As a side line I just have to say that the Woking area seems to be a very jealous one and some seriously unpleasant tweets and texts had come our players and management’s way since losing to Sheerwater the previous Monday. I`m sure our members will keep their own counsel but as an Eversley stalwart for a few years I find that mentality very strange. They say he who laughs lasts and all that!….. )

 

…Anyway back to the game.

What started as an end to end game continued in the same vain, chances to both sides, averted by a mixture of last ditch defending, saves by both keepers, and perhaps less than top quality finishing meant the score could have been 5 all at half time. Eversley just about edged it but a Hamilton sliding finish and a home side tap in from a spilled cross kept the scores even at 2-2 at the break.

The second half started completely the reverse to the first with Spelthorne moving the ball better and with more width. 55 minutes and a worldy from their new boy (on loan from H & R) from 25 yards saw the home side take the lead for the first time.

Eversley ‘s lack of width was rectified with Fox moved wider and immediately Spelthorne found less space and started to get caught in possession. Nathan Stamp at full back found more attacking space and his stand up cross on 60 minutes was met perfectly by Neil Williams at the far post, 3-3.

Just as it looked as though as though the visitors would march to a narrow victory the referee Brian Fish (funnily enough the referee for last year’s away Guernsey game) took umbrage at the normally genial Peter Millington –Lee’s protestations; somehow magicing a doubtful yellow card, for a rather innocuous free kick close to the half way touchline, into a straight red that would have even left 'Dynamo' fans in disbelief. Eversley down to 10 men and an eager Spelthorne went for the jugular. For the next 15 minutes it was all the home side and only a couple of outstanding Shelley saves, coupled with two goal line clearances kept the scores level. At the other end the visitors were always a threat with Baker somehow getting ruled against after the home keeper had bundled him over for what appeared a blatant penalty... but these forages were becoming rarer as the game progressed.

Had they remained patient Spelthorne then they surely would have one the game but too their credit Eversley responded to the challenge and the spirit that had been previously been called in to question. Spelthorne started to look longer, trying to force a winner and this allowed Eversley to stay in the game and hold out for what they hoped would be an unlikely point.

With moments left Matt Baker had other ideas collecting the ball on the halfway line and driving diagonally 30 yards taking 4 Spelthorne players with him before setting Williams to cross and find Hamilton whose sublime chest and finish won the game.

So far for Eversleythis season it has been Hyde one week and Jeckyll the next… let’s hope I can report on Mr Hyde again next week!

I wonder what Young Veteran has to say about that?

Maybe it's just one message/post somewhere that got out of hand.

 

About Hartley Wintney, I have heard that their GK Lee Allen is being looked at by a few sides including Gloucester City.

Very impressive performance by Windsor in beating Croydon 6-0. Or was it? Not completely sure as Croydon were content to give the ball back to Windsor at every opportunity. Poorest team I've seen for a while to be honest.

 

Ben Harris might lack a little in front of goal (experience I guess) but with the ball at his feet running at the defence he is as good as any front man I've seen at Stag Meadow in the last 4 years. Better than O'Toole and Chennells in that regard. A real handful and Croydon couldn't deal with him so resorted to hacking him down at every opportunity (not maliciously imo, they just couldn't deal with him).

 

The improvement in him in the last year is amazing.

spot on that match report! what a great game for the neatrul, eversley stronger in the first half and spelthorne in the second. referee was poor, not only was that never a red card on eversley player, but a blatant pen for spelly was not given when flatman shot and was wiped out and the referee decided to give a corner when there was clear no contact on the ball.

 

both these sides will be up there. you could only see one winner last 20, but with probally the best gk in the league eversley dug in and knicked a win. great game

Well if the player said what he told me last night he said then yes it was. Would other refs have red card him if he said that maybe not but what he said is justifiable for a red card.

Plus a brilliant penalty save by Bully, 5 different goalscorers and 2 youngsters came on for their debuts. A good day all round.
