Pre-match chat was pretty upbeat, Chunderfield are no great shakes after all! Visiting the Hall was Hannah Herring, a fan of the Chunders and was made very welcome by the Prawn team. Predictions are Crabstick 2-1 Blues, Prawn 2-0, Wendy 3-1, Nick 2-2 and a ridiculous negative prediction from Fish Walsh, 0-1 with Novacuum scoring late. Cheer up Fish, we’re heading for the playoffs!
First half and Captain Whitey is back in and soon putting in some decent crosses. Blues playing with more determination, Wozza doing well but gets injured and replaced by Hunty on 29mins. Payney looks lively, pass to Woody who has shot well saved, but not too much being created.
Halftime 0-0 and Fish and Prawn wonder about our fitness as Chunder are good at keeping possession.
Second half and Payney needs to be the creator, good move and Payney shoots just over. Chunder hit back with a close shot, Payney cross almost goes in. Payney get fouled, booking for Chunder, cross to Barney SAVED shoulda scored. Chunder chance well defended, Big Willy Atko off, Mcqueen on. Could go either way, Chunder dangerous freekick, wasted, Moons on for Barney, going for the three points. Moons clattered in box, PENALTY? NO the ref bottles it. Long ball over the top, Novak scores no way! 0-1. Injury time and Bents is going up for free kicks but Blues blow it.
Down to tenth, would have settled for that in August but so disappointing. COYB!
