luck slough i've been told all leyton second half

[A Rebel and a Saint]

ah well a win is a win, well done rebels, especially without hodges and wilko.

[GarySTFC]

Gritty performance, which we did have to hang on a bit, but they had to clear two off the line as well and a great goal from Josias to close the game and the three points. Given the other results, a very important win...

[Staines-upon-Thames Rebel]

Cant belive we won as it felt that they would score a second any time in the second half - however Josias got behind the defence and got the 3 points.

 

I felt that the ref had a poor and inconsistant game as the handing out of Yellow cards to Slough showed.

 

Good to see that their number 5 was the best player on the pitch - at least that is what he told us! He can go and tell costas how good he was and that he contributed to their fantastic result - what a ar$e!

 

Well done to our boys for a hard fought game and 3 great way points.

That made up for the point or points we should have got against Hampton ! well done Slough for you great effort...Glenn Harris was knackered !

Started very well and Andy Ballard scores after good work from Chopper. But they applied some pressure with a goalmouth scramble that was cleared off the line, then they miss a one-on-one with Masters.

 

Just before h-t chopper has a header cleared of the line. Second-half we sat back a lot and seemed to be getting deeper and deeper as the game went on.

 

Every shot they took though was superbly blocked by one of our four who were excellent second half. In injury-time Chopper cross and Josias the sub(?!) volley's home.

 

Important win with many other strange results this week as others have said.

I always felt we could get something during the second half as we were attacking quickly and with real purpose. To be fair we always looked like we could concede too but several last ditch sliding tackles and blocks kept it safe.

 

I'm not his biggest fan but credit where credit is due, I thought Matty Seedal had a great game today. He still can't win a header but really worked hard and hassled their defence. McCleary always looked dangerous and at the back Daly and Avery were superb, particularly the latter. I was also one of the few who agreed with putting Masters in and his handling and taking of crosses was excellent today.

 

A very, very good win and a quite brilliant finish from Josias. I love football on days like this! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

[Ted]

Credit to the team for a very gutsy performance today. Also credit to Eddie for the tactics which I think were deliberate--and they worked.

[Don Juan DeMarcus]

Superb result that we deserved, they may have had more of the attack but we created the best chances and well done Josias for scoring (God knows why he was on the bench!!)

[Don Juan DeMarcus]

BTW Gary did you film the 1st half cos the video evidence may get Ballard and Alexis off two shocking yellow card decisions, ref was appaling at times, and there keeper deserves an oscar.
