Thorpe (Home), 18 March 2007
Wymondham -v- Thorpe
Result: 1-7 Loss
0-7 Halftime
Goalscorer: Nick Parker
Wymondham Player of the Match: Joshua Mellor
Our first home match to be played at Kett’s Park after a long absence thanks to the recent weather issues; the day started off dry and sunny but a tad breezy … OK, it was blowing a gale!
A definite game of two halves: the first half we battled into the wind and at times hail and snow but didn’t make sufficient tackles or any real use of the ball and we left a gaping chasm in midfield that was capitalised on by Thorpe.
7-0 to Thorpe at half time.
The second half was completely different and was won by Wymondham 1-0. Lots of good moves, good tackles and with the advantage of the wind, we were unlucky not to have scored more with shots from Zack Harvey and Henry Leather coming close and Nick Parker heading over the bar from another fine corner from Dan Brindle. Indeed, that was the pairing that got together to score our goal: a corner from Dan that Nick managed to hustle over the line to gain our consoltation goal.
All we need to do is develop and maintain some consistency in our play.
Thanks again to Michael Elvin for running the line for us.
