On a perfect day for football,Mikes Prems were transferred from the Gardens to theCaledonian to play Northern.With several players unavailable and the bench full of pimply faced youngsters thiswas going to make for an interesting game.Northern played a very defensive game, and did well tostem many of our attacks, ourfinishing wasnt near as goodas what it should be.Burgee was kept quiet unitilearly in the second half.Northern doug deep kept to there very basic game plan, on another day wecould of ran away with it.Towards the end of the game Northern got the equaliser after a defensiveerror.Tristan was given a Red for apparent incorrect use of the Queens English,much to the shock of all around who heard nothing.. Interesting to note that theNorthern goal keeper was only cautioned in the first half for his same pottymouth issue. Player of the day was awarded to one of the most under ratedplayers in the league Sam Enright, pic above.Looking forward to next week when all team will be up and running.
This should come as no surprise. If you beat/draw with Tech it is because they were off their game not because you played well. To me the attitude of the club is deeply arrogant. It may not be the players who hold this attitude as Judda pointed out Northern deserved the point but you certainly get that feeling from those in higher positions.
