Red Star 35s: Another tough morning for Red Star. Having gone toe-to-toe with a well-organised Thornbury side for much of the first half we were undone by a ball over the top which was well-converted by a pacey forward. It could have been more had it not been from some fine keeping by stand-in goal Al Dennis. The second half was a more one-sided affair. Red Star failed to capitalise on their chances and Thornbury made sure of the tie with three more goals without reply. Their backline held up very well. It was a game played in a very good spirit, but one slightly overshadowed by the losses of one Red Star player very-early in the first half to a dislocated collar bone, and another in the second half to concussion, both from entirely innocuous situations. The BRI should have a Red Star on the door.
