FOF Match Report

Well done to the lads, too tired to write up a proper report lol but I will do my best. Basically we were never behind in the game. We scored then they scored with it 3-3 at half time. They equalised dead on half time thanks to possibly the worst freekick ever taken by....yes you guessed it me! 

But the lads kept their heads up and we run away with the second half. Both their goals were mere consolations and didnt have much significance when they went in as we were cruising. 

It helped that no one had a bad game and we were well organised and committed. There was one chance they had where they went to shoot centrally a few yards outside the box and all 4 of us slid in and collided with eachother putting our bodies on the line. In typical fulhamish fashion the ball rebounded to one of their players in acres of space and he tapped it in with all 4 of us still trying to get off the floor. 

Admin made some excellent saves throughout and really kept us in the game. Like I said no one had a bad game but the standout player was Rweller86 who was man of the match scoring 4 screamers a couple of which came at vital times in the game. 

Syd cupp played for us to make it 7 players each and bagged a tap in. The addition of FulhamBen helped playing that Parker role and Jonaldinho and ffc2004 were quality as always. 

We even received a little trophy for our triumph courtesy of Welling which was a nice touch. Funny that we waited 2months for ours and Fulham are ......well......still waiting.

Just like to say a massive thankyou to Welling United Fans Forum who made the day fantastic. Everyone was very friendly and fair, in fact both teams were so easy going that it probably didnt even need a ref. Big thankyou to our very own Syd Cupp who helped arrange it superbly with me. Another big thankyou to my team mates who make such a big effort travelling across London. 

I know some people find it hard to find time to meet fellow fofers but I strongly recommend giving it a go. I have met so many great people through Fof who have now become my mates. These days are great fun even if we lose just because they are top people. 

Here's to our first victory!
