Off with a win with first home game of season....

I know its a massive cliche but this was the definition of 'game of two halves'. First half we was very poor and I'd be hard pressed to recall a time when we have played worse. We came in at half time 2 down and looking like things would only get worse 2nd half. Some choice words were said at half time and fortunately for me it provoked the reaction I was looking for. We got ourselves back into the game by way of a Terry Rymer pen after he was brought down by the Swaffham keeper from that point on we dominated the game shortly after making it 2-2 man of the match Matt Hill went past his full back and delivered a cracking ball to the back post were Philbo Kelly was to volley into the roof of the net. We continued to push Swaffham looking for a winner and it came with 5mins left a Dean Sillett freekick into the visitors box the keeper came to claim it but dropped the ball right at the feet of Jake Holman who had no hesitation blasting in the winner.

The bad new was Liam Morley had to withdrawn early in first half and is a doubt for Tuesday nights game against Cornard also missing will be Luke Hughes due to work but on the plus I have got 3 or 4 to come back in from V fest.
