Vs Red Stars 3-2

Wow oh Wow, we won a game, unbelievable. Whether it was due to Christian in central midfield (who has yet to lose in our colours), or the fact that Lluis had his girlfriend to show off to, i don't know but either way we had moments of wonderful football again, and moments of absolute cack too!!

The game started against the 10 men of Redstars witha very shaky defence. In fact i have no understanding why. We were fit, up for it, and agressive pre match but when it started, we were crap!! the first goal was due to some dodgy defending by Mike, covered by some dodgy defending by Rich. The game was for the taking but we just weren't doing anything with the ball. We were slow to the ball and poor in control of it. It took a great cross by Lluis to Doms head to get us an equaliser, but really until that point we weren't very deserving of it. The highlight was the complaining of Caj about Kyles freekicks. He then took freekick duty and kicked it straight into the ground to the amusement of the opposition and Kyle, who by all accounts was still drunk at this point.

We went into half time with a 1-1 scoreline that flattered us, even if the last 10 minutes had been better. There were recriminations and arguments, oh and substitutions, which weren't complained about as the sun was shining and it was a nice day to lounge about on the sidelines. Carlos soon got the yellow card which i promised would earn him a substitution but in reality it was nice to have him back and he played very well on the right.

Redstars fought straight back and a poor defensive display by Rich earned them a flukey goal which Magog almost saved with a palm against the post. The almost immediate reply where Lluis moved to the right wing and blasted a 20 yard effort into the corner was a welcome relief for the Collins. Ruben and Anti were marauding up and down the wings from full back and causing all sorts of probems, and Rich's achilles finally gave in allowing Andre a game up front and Dom moved into centre back. Ian latched onto a lovely corner to win the game for us late on and realistically we should ahve scored 4 or 5 more but the finishing was woeful. We had to wait until the end of the match to realise that they had had a man sent off in the last 5 minutes. Most of us didn't notice. Red stars played dogged determined football but in the end the subs won us the game with the new energy they added. Either way its 3 points and rock on the Collins!!!!! Man of the Match because his missus was there ....Lluis!!!
