Harefield 3 Windsor 2.

[the leatherhead lip]

Cracking game at Preston Park last night, The Hares went 2 up early on with two quality strikes with Windsor pulling one back just before the break. Early second half Harefield extended  their lead with another quality goal from the Pacman, then the heaven's opened and Windsor scored their second with a neat free kick, As an aside the Hares front line was lead by veteran striker Richard Pacquette 39 years young,While Windsors number 9 was the evergreen Barry Hayles a sprightly 50 year old. Great stuff.

Two legends there ?

Wow, still playing at 50. Seen a lot of Pacman, he knows all the tricks the wily old sod, love watching him. Look forward to seeing Mr Hayles again when our paths cross, if the league ever deigns to tell us when that might be...

As we're doing reports, update on Jets first 2 games. Honours even at Spelthorne Sports in the most open ground I've seen in a long time, not a spot of shade anywhere with the mercury topping 36. The hosts may feel aggrieved at our injury time equaliser, not least as it was from a foul on the keeper, but on the balance of play it was about right.

Three days later and the heatwave broke over the Boundary, with heavy rain for much of the game. Not exactly raining goals but there were 6, 4 of them to Basher's boys, and they let us off lightly to be honest. Between the games we secured the signings of prolific striker Billy Healey and no nonsense defender Kyle Watson, both formerly of Hanwell Town. Both debuted, Healey clearly not fit but showed promising signs and managed to get on the scoresheet by heading a nice ball from Watson to the back post. Killer Wat was lucky to last the 90 and on this showing will spend more time suspended than he will playing. Both though will add some much needed experience to this young group of players. 

The early pacesetters await tomorrow with a trip to Rowley Lane and a reunion with Ben Barnett, on loan to us from Cheshunt last year. Lions have scored 9 in 2, and young Ben will want to get one over on a manager who didn't play him much. Can't wait ?

Kyle Watson does play close to the edge that's for sure ?

Bill Healey and Kyle Watson will/should be very good signings for the Jets ?
