Waveney Hearts v Pot Black

Dip Farm
18-10-09
Lost 4-2

Pot Black lost this top of the table clash 4-2 but gave a good account of themselves considering the many team changes again this week due to people working or unavailable.

Waveney were soon on top at the start of the match and missed good chances before taken the lead 1 -0. Pot Black were battling well in midfield without creating many chances of there own.
Just before half-time with the best chance of the half and clean through after a good ball from Max, he put the wide of the goal.

The second half started with the wind at PB backs and looking stronger until a long ball from defence caught the defence wanting resulting in a scrambled second goal for Waveney,
To their credit PB kept trying to play football and got back into the game with a goal from Ollie. This spurred PB on and the equaliser was soon coming with a good shot from Will. PB were now on top and looking the only side to win until another poor decision by the ref gave Waveney a free-kick on the edge of the box, resulting in another scrambled goal. PB went to 3 at the back to chase the equaliser but Waveney added a fourth just before the end with another long punt from defence.

All in all, PB can consider themselves unlucky after giving a good account of themselves against one of the stronger sides in the league.

Finally a good game of football was spoilt by a display of ‘schoolmaster’ referring when the rules of respect seem to work only one way with his performance.

A.Ingles –solid performance at full-back.

Oxford Arms v Pot Black

League
18/10/09
won 10-0

This was a game where PB had a chance to redeem after the very poor display last week.
PB looked a different side from last week, with the commitment and attitude showing through.
PB were playing good football and took an early lead after good inter passing enabled Max Wall to hit a thunderous left foot shot into the bottom corner from the edge of the box.
Straight from the kick-off, Oxford Arms got into a tangle and with a weak back pass enabled Ethan to shoot past the keeper and give PB a 2-0 lead. The next 20 mins was fairly even with both sides creating chances and PB should have increased their lead before half-time.

The second half started as the first with PB on top and another tremendous shot from Max Wall with a right foot shoot gave PB a 3-0 lead. This killed the game of as far as Oxford Arms were concerned and then proceeding to play the rest of the game with very little interest and content to just play the ball around their 18 yrd box. Ethan scored to give PB a 4-0 lead. Max Wall then got a penalty after a strong run into the box and was fouled. Richard Reeder then run up to take the penalty after bragging he has not missed one in 28 years playing football. After a confident run up, he majestically hit the ball high and mighty over the bar with a shot more suited to Twickenham and getting 3 points.

It took almost 10 mins to recover the ball after going so far behind the goal.
The rest of the game was a non-event with Oxford Arms not trying and PB scoring at will.
The game ended a 10-0 win for PB.
Scorers:
Coops – good hat-trick
Max - 2
Ethan - 2
Will - 1
Jordon –1
Cannot remember who scored 10th –that interested
Could have been Ros – no 3 near misses- 2 off line
Reedo - No missed penalty

Tell me next week to put records straight.

Next Week old enemy Waveney Hearts Dip Farm.

Juggs v Pot Black

Suffolk Cup
11/10/09
Lost 5-1

PB bowed out of the Suffolk Senior Cup at Kessingland with a very poor display.
The game was always going to be a hard game after the close league game earlier in the season.

The game started with Juggs looking the hungrier and winning every 50-50 ball. After being on top at the beginning they luckily took the lead with a deflected goal. This appeared to put some spark in PB and it was not long before Will Denton went through and put the ball past the keeper to equalise.
Juggs again took control and after poor defending they hit PB with 2 quick goals to take a 3-1 lead at half-time.

The second half was no different with Juggs showing much more desire to win then PB. 2 more goals gave Juggs a comfortable win but has to be said against a very poor performance from PB.

Players need to take a good look at themselves after such a poor display with the attitude of many players in question.
