Putting the kids to bed, have we fed them?

Stallions 4: Lloyd x 2 (Bakky double assist), Bakky, Carrick (assists?)
Eastbourne 1

Pretty awful game on what felt like a children's pitch, in bullshit conditions with constant niggle - but a good result, especially to come back from the early goal - that slow start again.

Stallion: Lloyd - 2 total control finishes. While everyone else was shooting through bodies/over bars/into each other - Lloyd calmly slotted home twice.

Pony: A couple of contenders:

Heath with a classic from Stallion to Pony - breaking through the middle with a beautiful run, beating defenders, Stallions on either side in a 3 on 1, and he hits a backpass to the keeper.

But that was trumped by Bakky's running battle with the ref, everybody who has ever or may ever play for Eastbourne, the spectators, that seagull who flew past. Its been a while since the 'bringing the Stallions into disrepute' pony came out, good to see it back. I just feel so bad for Bakky - it was only 2 weeks ago he spent 3 days writing a perfect match report. But this one -when he was the key figure in the game - not only the niggle but a goal and 2 assists, it might take months! You have until Friday.

Other results still ain't up, so have to wait and see where we sit. Huge match next week at KP - lets take it to the Accies, and then make sure most of us get to the club rooms to celebrate our win.
