Bit of frustrating one last night. The Gulls started with 10 and early on we had a big stoppage for an injury. Couldn't really see what happened from my end but one of their guys went down when trying to clear a corner then our manager shouted "call an ambulance!" Words you never want to hear on the pitch. Think he tried a bicycle clearance and dislocated his elbow on the landing. A lady who was just passing came down and said she was a nurse so helped calm him down and get him off the pitch.
One our subs (who has been injured since pre-season and hasn't even played for us yet) then played for them. Shortly after the restart their striker went down with an injured back and had to go off, but came back on after a few minutes, and someone else arrived to give them 11.
1-0 up at half time through a header from a corner and got a second the same way by the same player in the second half. Had so many chances and it really should have been more but our finishing was off. 2 minutes to go we gave away a penalty for 2-1.
I've usually been in teams who get thrashed most weeks so that's one of the easiest games I can ever remember having in goal, don't think I had more than 10 touches and half of them were exchanging passes with the defence. Was a bit gutted at the end as I hadn't had a clean sheet for 3 seasons before last week and was 2 minutes from a 2nd in a row. But a win is a win and since losing 9-2 we've won 3 in a row scoring 10 and conceding 3 so wiped out that goal difference.
Other results not up yet. How did the Barons go? Saw a big celebration from the JJs in the 2nd half so assume they won a close game.
