Went to the ECB vs Papakura today. The goal from the Kura lad up front was probably one of the best finishes I have seen at that level.
They went 1 nil up. Bays had a few chances just could not get it in the net. Until just before half time. 1-1 into the break.
Shortly after Kura missed probably one of the easiest tap ins and the lad hits it over the top. From then they fell apart as we got a few quick goals.
Finished 5-2 probably a fair result. The pitch was terrible to play on, but lovely club house and good food.
I was at the same game - completely agree with the great strike from Api Singh for 'Kura, then the absolute miss of the century from Andy Cole Chis Clark for the home side after some great work by Singh to feed him. ECB a class above Papakura, but didn't really create many opportunities until the equaliser despite dominating possession and territory.
I don't know what's going on at McLennan Park but the grass on the main field and the top field is just in a shark state. I know sand based takes a lot of water, but would lack of water cause that surface? All the grass had gone brown like it was sprayed with something.....could frost do that? Serves the Council right after cheating the cricket club out of their own clubrooms there......
$5 for a handle of Speights was good, but thought the chips had too much salt on them.
