Good afternoon and welcome
to our visitors Godolphin
Atlantic.

banter
Last Wednesday we entertained
Exmouth Town, but I felt the 4-0
scoreline did not fully reflect the game.
Yes, Exmouth always looked the side most likely, but for an
hour we gave them a good run for their money. And, but
for a couple of dubious decisions which went against us,
the outcome could have been different.
Tom Kelly, running through onto a long ball, lobbed a
beautiful ‘goal’ However, the young linesman decided he
.
was offside. The same linesman also gave another offside
decision against James Blake, who also ran on to a long
high ball. At the time the ball was played forward both my
players were, in my opinion and in the view of other
spectators in line with the action, onside.
As it was when Exmouth got their second goal we ran out
of steam. It came as no surprise as young Jake Welch was
playing his third game in five days, while Luke Pinkney
was not fully recovered from a midweek fall which resulted
in a bruised hip. Troy Membury too was suffering with
breathing problems throughout the game. He was unable
to continue for the final 10 minutes and immediately went
to hospital for a check-up afterwards.
The game also emphasised what having a healthy budget
can get you with Exmouth challenging for
second spot in the league and
promotion.
I was also very pleased for another
youngster, Matt Clenahan,
making his home debut for us.
He had a cracking debut for us at
Elburton a few weeks back and I
was very impressed with him
again on Wednesday night.
Unfortunately he and Jake Welch
are unavailable for today’s game.
With James Skinner (holiday) and
Darrel Veale also absent, I have to
make changes again...reinforcing
the fact we have had no continuity
in the team throughout the season.
Enjoy
