Frampton Athletic Vets
A great game of football played with great corinthian spirit! Very even throughout the first half, with Lyde Green taking a 1-0 lead mid-way through the half. The Lyde Green goalkeeper pulled off a worldie to keep the score 1-0 just before half time. Frampton made it 1-1 within five minutes of the restart, before Frampton’s legs disappeared on the hour mark and the fitness levels of Lyde Green led them to dominate the remainder of the game and make the scoreline very comfortable for them.
Lyde Green Vets
Another good close encounter with Frampton played in excellent spirit throughout. It took Lyde a solid half hour before some of the hangovers started to subside and Ben gave us the lead. A few good saves from both keepers kept the score at 1-0 at the break. Frampton level after Carts failed to cut out a cross (earning him yet another Donkey award from his teammates) leaving an easy finish at the back post. It turns out this was the kick Lyde needed and after hitting the crossbar 3 times, Doughtz gave us the lead when the ball fell at his feet 6 yards out from a corner. The game started to fizzle out as Frampton tired and Doughtz grabbed his second to secure the win.
