 vs Southport 1s 02/11/2019

The boys lose 4-2. I blame Chags 

A Saturday away game like no other. Top of the table Southport vs bottom of the table Lancaster, but not by our own fault.. I promise. The day began with an early get up for the bois to watch the much anticipated game of World Cup rugby, it’s alright England lost though. Anyway we set off early for the game in order to get to the ground with enough time for a quality warm up. A proper professional warm up from us was out of the question when Jamie and egg turned up late with a KFC bucket each as that is exactly what athletes consume 5 mins before a game. The very early on contender for dick of the day came around when fletch named himself in the starting 11 but couldn’t make the start of the game because he had lost his stick, pretty village really. The game begins and as we thought they would start pretty well but we matched them for the first 20 in a close game. Unfortunately due to no one in particular (Mel), they were gifted a goal after one of our CB topped a biff straight to there striker who finished it. We were down but certainly not out as we continued to play pretty well. There number 8 was an angry man as he threw in a couple stick tackles and chatted his way into a warning from the ref before nearly slotting in from a short. 0-2. Some beautiful play from the bois from lancs with a dreamy ball from Sam down the line to sweet talking Rory which led to a cross ball and Bob to open the scoring for us, well deserved. Half time blew and even though were 2-1 down, we had heaps of belief and fletchs analysis helped us further. A strong start from the angry men from Southport gave them another 2 goals. The second half was pretty dead with back and forth hockey mixed with some beautiful passes from egg and Mel at the back and some neat single handed moves from Cal. We would have been a lot more than 4 down if it wasn’t for Jellis in goal who produced a man of the match performance in the net. I suppose one the talking points from the game came with about 20 mins left in the game when Gabe produced one of the cleaner tackles you will ever see which led to one of the angry men get even angrier and square up. A bit of a shame but next time I’ll use my stick and finish the job. He got a 5 min yellow but according to one of the Southport ultras on the side “should have been a straight red”. Back with the game, in the closing minutes we won a short and GI Joe slaps the ball in the bottom corner giving us a tiny bit of hope to get another couple goals to get a result. Unfortunately the final whistle blew giving us another loss for the year but we did play well so that bodes well for the season to come.
MOTM: Jellis
