IRON 2-1 Alfreton

[ozbrit]

Looks like a tough one again for us again, we don't generally do so well after having a rest from games. With all the other comps now out of the way we can concentrate on grabbing ourselves a top half of the table position.

I see there's been a huge hold up on the M1 today, but there again I guess they would cut across to the A1 and avoid the mess.

Well we negotiated this game okay. Just as the match appeared it might peter out to a goalless draw. Sean Marks puts IRON in front with what the BBC Essex commentary described as a super headed goal. Soon after it was two when Chez struck or was it an own goal. Alfreton got theirs after I'd dropped off to sleep. Any news on Coxie's injury?

Mitch Brundle was absolute MOTM by a country mile love how vocal he is and made some great runs had a decent effort too. Sean Marks was a close second had a really good game took a lot of hits again but got a good goal and flicked the ball on well but I thought the whole team had a solid game not a classic match, Simeon had a very quiet match which is strange cos he could of had a couple of goals against a poor team who I would say will find it hard to stay up. On to the next big 3 away games I think if we get 4 or 6 points it would be amazing anything more in dreamland, come on the iron

First half was abysmal and utterly forgettable; hopefully Jordan's injury isn't too bad. Devs must've had a word at half time as there was definite improvement in the second half. Agree Mitch was good, but also thought Sam was too. Good to see Marks actually stick a header away although he missed another later on. Sparkes is the best crosser; we have; setting up Marks goal from the corner he then showed good quick thinking on the free kick to send Simeon away to set up the second goal. Chez and Dan both had good chances to score but both blazed over. Not sure about Chez's goal, possible o.g? Pity we didn't keep a clean sheet; they were very poor.
Where did they get the jolly lime green giant from in goal? Didn't need the floodlights on.
