It’s the second game in a row against Blackpool and District, with Fartwood arriving with League two aspirations. Lots of gossip regarding who’s going to be here next season, let’s get this game won first! Lenny starts for the first time in two months. Wozza continues as sort of right back ish. Prawn Connery reckons 1-1, Nick Prawnby a 2-1 win, and Fish Walsh has a bad dream where Fartwood win 3-1. So you have a bad dream every week then Fishy?
First Half and it starts niggly, Bents has to save smartly and Fart goalie Mad Max saves from Thommo. Chance for Blues leads to Grunt hitting Blues post. Blues McLaugh-in trying hard to get booked. Keepers exchange simple saves. Shrimpers set-pieces are appalling as ever. Thommo booked on 42.
Halftime 0-0 and all to play for
Second Half starts with poor quality from both teams. Until Grunt hits a screamer from 30 yards and it’s 0-1 Fartwood! 53 mins – have they scored too soon? Weston on for Big Willy Atko, has a chance straight away, wide! Corner to Blues and Barrett heads in! Blues score from a corner! 1-1. Blues push on, McQ on for McLaugh-in. Digger feeds Payney GOAL 2-1 Blues! 82 mins. Wozza off for Whitey. Fartwood have to chuck everything forward, McLaugh-in scores on 90, 2-2 dammit.
Fulltime 2-2, forget those pesky playoffs!
