White Lightening

Ben White (pictured) was on fire today as he scored four goals to lead the way for a Zephyr Rovers victory over Solnet. This was a potentially tricky fixture with only four regular squad members available for the local derby against Solnet. "We had a few out and Andy Auer withdrew on the morning, meaning we had five players" said Hall "so I got a guy from work to stand in at short notice along with Pete Roberts who had agreed to play, and we had one sub". Pete Roberts was injured early on and an extra sub was gained by grabbing a guy who was watching the game on the sideline. "This was getting to be something of a makeshift team but Ben had one of those games where he carved through the opposition and slotted them in the corner"said Hall "and our defence held pretty well even though the team structure was a bit hairy at times". Hall said the sign of a good team was winning when conditions weren't at there optimum. Only two team have two wins" said Hall "so I don't think we have anything to fear in this league if we keep playing like this".
