It was great to kick off the season with a well earned win against a Sutton team who never give up.
We held a narrow 1-0 lead courtesy of Scott , when floodlight failure brought the game to a temporary halt.
When the Palace staff finally managed to turn the lights back on the game resumed and the goals started to flow. Fabio squeezed home a shot through a crowded penalty area and Perre scored the first of two to make the scoreline seem comfortable. Sutton fought back with two goals, and also hit the bar as they battled to bring the scores level. Perre notched his second to take the game away from Sutton.
The best 'goal' of the game came as Reece ghosted in at the far post to connect with a great cross from Perre. Inexplicably though, the ref chalked the goal off.
We were rusty last night after the summer break, but there was lots of effort and we played well in patches.
Dome starts again next Tuesday.
Goals: Scott1, Fabio 1, Perre 2.

Saturday Fixture
We've been challenged to an 11 a side match on Saturday 10th September - on Clapham Common. It's against Brixton FC - they're a good team who play football the right way so it should be an interesting challenge for us.
