Correct it wasnt but it was still an enjoyable game.

As the norm across the whole of the sporting world is to state the hosts first then 2-1 means we won, unless you mean the score was 1-2

The game was placed numerous times on our Facebook account and also on our Twitter feed. The Evening Mail advertised the game in the paper, website and on their Twitter feed too. We must remember that many of the fans that supported us last year may have had work or other commitments during half-term. Thanks for your attendance today Holkerbird.

I enjoyed it, feisty encounter with a few flare ups and a couple of sendings off. We had much the better of the second half especially after their number 10, who was controlling it all, got himself sent off.

They were technically a wee bit better I thought but we dug in.I thought our number 2 was our best player.

Sun shone, nice to see folk, what's not to like?

Only if it's laid out as a fixture: Us 1 - 2 Them or Us 1 - Them 2, not how it is spoken unless you are the only person in the world who would say "we lost 1 2."
Or if it was American sport where all fixtures are stated as Them @ Us.

[SwearFilter] sake

Can't help thinking it would have been better if we'd drawn 1-1.

Lovely to visit the ground and get to see these lads for the 1st time, pity I could'nt stay till the end.

The U18's are at home to Morecambe on the 9th Nov
