View from the Boundary Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Shocking 2nd 45 from the Jets after going in deservedly 2-1 up at half time with a Giordamana brace. Never in it after the break though and the wheels came off in predictable fashion, 2 stonewall penalties, a panenka and a red card, as soon as Salamis equalised soon after the restart Jets watchers just knew what was coming. Without Ferrell Charles the defence are always on the back foot, Saturday was pretty woeful and so was this. The manager tore into them for 20 minutes after the one sided 5-4 loss to AVD, this feels worse because we were well on top first half. Not exactly snatching defeat from the jaws of victory but a definite Jekyll & Hyde performance. The second of 5 home games in a row, in which we've conceded 9. Doesn't auger well. Get well soon Ferrell, we need you back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agamemnon3 Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Oxhey Jets v New Salamis 2-4 I was also at this one, and was surprised at the outcome, as this was a game that Jets could, and should, have won. They were the better team in the first half, and when they went in 2-1 up at the interval, I fully expected them to go on and win. As VB points out above however, the wheels came off, and what disappointed me most was that as soon as the equaliser came, almost the whole of the Jets' side seemed to give up, as if defeat was inevitable. From then on, clumsy tackles and schoolboy defending handed the game to Salamina. Sean Giordmana's father was there, at his first game this season, and just before kick-off he shouted to his son that there was £20 in it for him if he scored a hat-trick. When Sean scored on 25, and again on 32, I thought that surely the money was his, but even he was afflicted by the collective malaise that overcame the Jets, and in the second half he barely got a touch. I also thought that there was some tactical naivety. I would question the wisdom of always leaving three men up in the centre circle when defending corners. This may be ok when you're in front and want to keep the opposition guessing, but when you are on the back foot, and being outplayed, and have already conceded from a corner, I would suggest that your defence needs all the help it can get. Ah well, a winnable game today against Baldock, surely ? (I was sitting next to the New Salamis committee members, who seem to be an eccentric bunch. They think that Ardley United play in Watford, and that Leighton Town play in East London...} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even first half possession-wise but on good chances, Oxhey Jets should have led by more. Second half it was mostly New Salamis and after grabbing an early equalizer went on to win the game via 2 penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
