Match Reports

We took the bragging rights in the BS16 derby as we edged past Vasco in a tight encounter. Facing the stiff breeze and the hill in the first half we managed the game well and took the lead when George nodded home from a Conrad corner. Second half they were facing the elements but came out far better than us and after a 1966 dubious goal line decision the luck turned in their favour when a cross floated into the stanchion to make it 1-1. The game became stretched and end to end and we regained the lead when Youngy put a pearler of a cross in for Steve to force home. Within 60 seconds they were level when a cross from the right found an unmarked Durston who nodded home. We then had a good 10 minutes and took advantage by scoring twice through George and Steve before they got one back with a minute to go.
