After last week’s less than satisfactory game the Oakers were keen to improve and after a conversation on team tactics a new approach was taken in this first Cup game of the season.
The opposition was the Hornets, a young Division One team and it seemed a good time for the Oakers to practice their new strategy.
From the start the Oakers put up a steady defence, with the new tactics working well. Unfortunately a goal was conceded towards the fourth minute. However, the team weren’t demoralised and stuck to the game plan doggedly.
A fine piece of play by Asda Dave almost saw the team draw equal, but the Hornets keeper managed to keep him out. But the new strategy worked well and the Oakers managed to keep the opponents to that single goal with an end score of 1-0 to the higher league team.
Unfortunately, a few minutes before the end of the game a scuffle ensued between a member of the Hornets and Nick, which resulted in a red card for our player, so ‘Naughty Nick’ is now at the top of our bad boy leaderboard!
Next Game: Thursday 9th October 2008 at 8.20pm against Flair Play.
