The 2004’s 1st Home Match of 2015 was the proverbial game of 2 Halves. With their shiny new strips the 04’s took the game to today’s opponents from Longniddry. A flurry of goals from the home team and a couple from the visitors saw the teams share 8 goals in the 1st 25 mins. Arran and JJ this week played in defence, Izzy and Jamie played wide with Archie in the middle and Harvey up front. This formation saw a lot of play on the right but as the ball was switched it meant Jamie was played in on a couple of occasions to good effect with him firing off a couple of excellent shots with his left foot. Later Robbie saw his wonder strike cancelled out by the referee for an earlier infringement. Not to worry, a short free kick to Archie and he caressed the ball into the top right hand corner with his left foot. The introduction of Cole & Finn added some more up tempo play with Cole getting his usual goal (perhaps he should be a goal incentive plan from his Dad!). With changes later in the 2nd half and the team tiring the opponents took advantage and scored a few goals without reply. It could have been more if it wasn’t for good goalkeeping by Ali.
The good news from today was the return of Angus and that Ella is back on Wednesday at training.
