Demolished

Zephyr Rovers today paid the price for not following the Manager Steve Hall's pre-game instructions. "Firstly it's a bit difficult when two team members don't turn up before the match has started" said Hall "and the others disregard what we talked about before the game". However things got off to a farcical start when Hayden's scored after the ball hit the post. "The referee decided that hitting the post was sufficient to get a goal which is a bizarre decision" said Hall "but it was a taste of things to come as the whole game went to custard". Hall said unfortunately with what was already an attack heavy team, Rovers decided to almost abandon defence. "I don't think the team got it that you can't have four guys playing attack and no one coming back" said Hall "but you notice when you're playing in goal and the opposition keeps getting free potshots at you". Hall said Rovers had learnt the hard way before that you build your game on defence. "Unfortunately our main defender for the day was Nigel and I'm struggling to think when he actually came into our half" said Hall "we'll need to do much better next week as screaming for people to get back as the opposition pick their spot is not my idea of a fun lunch time".

Final: Rovers 4 Hayden's 12
