Southside 0, MRC Ewell 4
We're not out of the cup yet. We could still sneak through on goal difference if a couple of other results go our way.
It was freezing cold and blowing a gale last night. We kicked off , playing into the howling wind and driving rain. In truth we never really got our game together. Despite lots of effort, we didn't keep our shape and didn't keep possession. On the rare occasions that we got the ball out to the wings it looked like we could score at will but these moments were all too rare. I was happy to go in to half time just 0-1 down. In the second half, the Ewell goal was under siege for 15 minutes as Southside looked set to draw level. Unfortunately we got hit on the break, and slipped to a 4-0 defeat as we tried in vain to take the game to the opposition
We didn't deserve to take anything from the game but the 4-0 the scoreline is a bit hard on us.
For me though, there were lots of positives. We had a really big squad - 17 people arrived in plenty of time for kick off, despite the weather and the lure of Chelsea v Man City. Charlie and Big James made really positive debuts. In a rare start, Montel impressed on the left wing. It was a really difficult night but i went home feeling happy with the attitute and application of the whole squad. Not everyone could play as many minutes as they wanted but no one made a fuss. Special thanks to David , Owen and Alex who came along to support the squad.
If we do get into the quarter finals we'll have to improve our football - we've got more than enough ability to raise our performace level - but our team spirit and hard work give us a solid foundation to build on.
See you all next Tues in the Dome.
