First game for nearly a year and hardly recognised the Team - less so the personnel, more the way we played. First half was men against boys and we got hammered by a very good side, playing some great football.
Second half? I watched a determined performance from a dedicated bunch of lads who played to the final whistle; even knowing they were up against it, they took the game to Halesowen and gave it a real go. (Not something
I have seen a lot of in the past 3 months from a certain East London outfit).
The quality of the football was great to watch - excellent movement and some very thoughtful passing. (Was Ben Seaton drug tested at the end of the game? First half he was non-existent and I contributed more from behind the goal, 2nd half he was motm. Brilliant passing, fantastic vision and a joy to watch).
I was impressed with the way Ken lead the line - very Lukaku-esque. Needs someone better to play off him imo and I am not surprised other teams are after him.
Lovely to see everyone again and thought the small band of Merry souls gave great support in the face of overwhelming odds. We were ridiculously outnumbered and up against a very witty and vocal home support. As Leon said, it was like us 20 years ago.
Regarding the move back home, Graham R and Ken have my full support. They really are working tirelessly to get us home and we still have options, some possibly better than Buckingham Road. I understand the frustration - now is the time to stand united. As BT used to say, “It’s good to talk”.
One final thing - what the f—- is a “Yeltz”?
