Match Report

The win against Sutton was under the circumstances, five players were injured during the game, a remarkable performace.

Our scorers were Harding 2, Quail and Sleap, but it was one of those days when our ill luck in regard to injuries was being compensated by the run of the ball.

However there is no doubt that in all of the circumstances and in view of Sutton's record this season our boys are to be congratulated on a magnificent fighting effort and John Swannell on his tremendous courage in playing through the second half virtually on one leg.

However, John on one leg is better than the majority of goalkeepers on two.

We should make it clear that none of the injuries sustained at Sutton were the result of rough play, and our visitors were in no way to blame.
