Thoughts

Following on from our great opening win against Oldland on
Wednesday, today we are pleased to welcome the players and
officials from Cheddar to Stockwood.

Last season’s game was a closely contested game that we eventually
won 2-1 and a repeat of that score would certainly do for me today.

Back to Wednesday, it was good to see the ground full of spectators
and I hope that those people who were impartial will have been
impressed by the quality of the football and come and watch again.
Without fans the game is not the same, and I know the players
benefit when there is a good atmosphere.

At a risk of stating the obvious, please use the various hand gels
provided and try and keep a distance from others around you so that
you don’t get ‘pinged’ by the NHS App. We all know that Covid is far
from finished and the more sensible we are the better chance we
have of competing the whole season this time!

Lets hope for a well contested contest today and whatever the score,
let’s all enjoy the game and remember to accept the Referee’s
judgement whether we agree or not, as with-out officials we could
not play the game...

As we all say #Up the Phones

As always I look forward to having a drink (or two) with you all in the
bar after (Socially distanced, of course), and you can find me in the
kitchen providing tea’s, coffee’s, pasties and pies during the game.
Come and look me up!
