In a shock result, a near full strength BC1 team took a real pasting last night from MK Ed, currently
sitting just one place off the bottom of the league, with only one win this season.

 

Despite some woeful passing in the opening minutes, quite rightly BC1 opened the scoring after Sean had
chased down a ball on the left, turned inside the defence and struck low to the ‘keepers right only for
the resulting save to find an unmarked Ritchie Moss who fired the rebound into an empty net.

 

And that was it, in respect of the high points.

 

What followed was significant possession let down by ‘even worse than woeful’ passing, little running,
no tackling and nothing of note between the Bunky posts either ….

 

MK Ed. defended deeply and broke with speed (albeit the snail’s pace associated with the only team
older than BC1 in the league) but struck well when they had opportunities and of their five shots, managed to
score four to romp home emphatically.

 

In fairness, even this performance could have seen BC1 gain something … but we didn’t, so we should all just
move on and let it go. Dumped out of the cup and now crushed in the league will perhaps make this
easier said than done, particularly if you now feel even worse having read the match report.

 

Mind you, at least you don’t have to write it ….     Gareth Davies
