cup of tea Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Terrible conditions, poor pitch especially in the goalmouth and appaling weather. Game was a lottery and I'm glad I'm back in the warm. Good goal from Stefan. Take the three points, hope there's no injuries and move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cup of tea Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 I'm not having a go at east Thurrock over the pitch, no-one can do much with this volume of rain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss.A.F.C.Hornchurch Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 think the pitch would've been better if it wasn't for the poor weather. But then unless your Maidstone, i expect pitches to be poor this time of year. Good result for us and we held in there in those poor conditions this afternoon. East Thurrock must feel sick with the disallowed goal in the final stages of the game. But then, we've all been there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wivenhoe Urchin Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 A good result and very good first half. This time it was the second half where we couldn't maintain control of the game enough. Today it was enough, but we must be careful when we play better sides. Cray should be another tough game after their good win today and Dulwich will be huge for us. Lets hope we keep the results going as they have been recently to push on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr short Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Glad we had the 2 goal cushion at half time! Everyone to a man dug in and played their part. The second half became a bit of a farce with the strong wind and had that storm appeared 20 minutes earlier I feel the game could've been abandoned. Well played the boys.

Eastside Urchin Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Not often I would rather work than watch footy but the weather means I weren't too gutted about missing today. Always good to win there as it's usually a hard game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paokman Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Exquisite control from Stefan for his first goal. Would've liked to have seen clip of their disallowed "goal". And yet more rain today, fingers etc crossed for Tuesday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagger03 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Pakman - A free kick was awarded almost on the half way line five minutes from time, and immediately it was taken, up went the linesman’s flag. The ball ended up in the net, and East Thurrock’s celebrations were quickly cut short – the decision – and correctly so – was that Inigo was impeded (it used to be called obstructed) by the home forwards, and therefore an indirect free kick as the home forwards were in an offside position.
