Bilston Town v Black Country Rangers
Things
are looking up; flowers on the primroses,buds on the roses,it's
definitely a little warmer, but most relevant of all.............it's
stopped bloody raining! At last we can actually watch a WMRL game and
the clubs are able to generate some much-needed income.
I've
long believed if you want atmosphere at this level,there aint many
better places than Queen Street Stadium,home of Bilston Town FC but
strangely,on this occasion the cheer-leaders were nowhere to be
seen.....or heard.
Nick
Turton was returning to his former club and was given a good welcome
and showed his appreciation by assisting as Rangers took the lead
inside 4 minutes. The Steelmen replied as they always do,by going on
the attack and were unlucky on a couple of occasions.Although the
pitch looked in fair nick after the crap weather,there were patches
of boggy ground which caught out more than a few players. Rangers had
the bulk of possession but were unable to increase their lead.
Half-time
; Bilston Town 0 BCR 1
From
the off the visitors tore into their hosts and it was no surprise
when they scored a second.Bilston were struggling to get out of their
own half as Rangers turned the screw and the inevitable third was
soon in the net.I think most spectators were expecting a hammering
but the hosts scored a late consolation goal to bring respectability
to the scoreline.
Town
didn't seem to be firing on all cylinders but to be fair they were up
against a very good Rangers side who are hoping for promotion this
year.
