Stonesfield report by Holdy

Another win, even though it was a less than impressive performance.

Absent were Dave Watson (attending the opening of a new McDonalds in Milton Keynes), Julio Baressi (Boy Scout trip to Wales), Colin Fleet (second part of his Anger Management course), Chris Fontaine (AWOL) Andy Thomas (Pants exhibition) & myself (still injured).

A debut in goal for youngster Randall Bates (They are calling him the new Colin Fleet at City). A back four of Theo Carroll, Mark lewis, Jules Dark & Mark Jennings. Midfield of Tim "Nice but Dim" Bowley, Shaun Bradders, Robbie "Bobby" Baressi & Smyler "Martin" Smy. Front two of Phil McRodney & Mark "Olly" Orlando. Dropped to the bench, Mark "SAT Nav" O'Hara, Creedy & Clarkey.

After going behind to an early goal, We went in at half time 3-1 up, thanks to goals from Tim Bowley, Bradders & Lewie.

Half time team talk was brought to a silence for 5 seconds, until somebody changed the subject, when Creedy announced that he would be stepping down as manager at the end of the season. Rumours are going around that he has been having secret talks with Roman Abromavic???

Rodders got so much stick at half-time for all the chances he missed, I stuck a tenner on him to score in the 2nd half with Marco.

Second half underway, and Randall Bates lived up to his billing as being the next Colin Fleet, by getting lobbed from the half way line.

Bobby Baressi put us 4-2 up with a cross come shot that sailed over the Stonesfield's keeper.
The game ended with McRodders having another dozen chances to win me a Tenner. Cheers Phil.
FINAL SCORE - City 4 Stonesfield 2.

Not the best performance, but it's another win to keep up our 100% record this season. Although it would need us to lose both our last games by a margin of 19 goals, a point next week away to Bicester (NOT BRISTOL, Marco), will secure the league title.
