Croydon & Old Whitgiftian 3s 4 – 1 Camberley and Farnborough 4s
After an hour long drive with delays on the M25 and a winless streak sitting at two lingering in our minds, we were looking to get back into the win column and continue the quest of moving up the table. With a bright start, Jim Swift was lead down the right wing with a well-placed pass from Alan Johnston. Swifty picked out the far corner of the goal from just inside the D to make it 1-0 for us. From there, the scoring continued from just inside the D when Jon Gadion made it 2-0 with a bone-crushing strike. Then, Bob Stevenson collected a rebound off the keeper about waist height and smacked it into the goal, but to his dismay it was disallowed. He redeemed himself by scoring moments later. 3-0 Croydon Old Whits at half time.
Shortly into the second half, one of the opposing forwards got around our defence and then dodged goalkeeper Qaz Khoker putting the ball away to make it 3-1. We continued to pressure our opponents and we were rewarded when Akira got the ball past the keeper with some hard goalmouth work. Nick Radford went onto hit the post twice in consecutive moments and others failed to capitalise on the many other chances we had to increase the score margin. Final score: 4-1. POM this week goes to AJ (Alan Johnston)!
