This was a really great game today all (and this time I do mean all) players had really solid games.
In the previous 2 meetings Molesey have appeared to have a reasonable attitude being competitive but fair. Today from the kick off they were dirty, taking every opportunity to have a dig, to make things worse their captain would run forward spitting obscenties from between clenched teeth he tried to get into our players face and stir up trouble in a spitful way.
With us at 2-0 at halftime it looked like the game would end in mass bookings and probably another punchup, last week they had a 20 man brawl against Kingstonian. But both teams came out for the second half and played football, they caught us cold a couple of minutes in, a good goal that came from some pressure through the middle.
It was pretty physical, but fair, for most of this half and the game was over with our third goal.
The new goalie made three really important saves and looked useful, talking to the defence and coming out when necessary, good kick too.
We could have had more goals with good work to get the ball forward and anyone prepared to have a go. Just what the fans have wanted.
What more could we want tight at the back, strong and inventive in mid-field, lively and adventurous in attack.
I've not named anyone this week because this was a great team effort.
