West Midlands (Regional) League
Premier Division
Willenhall Town v Black Country Rangers
At last,on a warm,sunny August Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock we're up and running for the new season.The pre-season friendlies are ok to whet the appetite but this is what really counts.This is the first League game for hosts Willenhall Town at Queen Street,their new 'home'.
What a brilliant game to start the season off where neither of these two sides were content with anything other than a win,so us spectators were treated to an end-to-end game.You couldn't fault the commitment,nobody was giving anything away if they could help it and the new tenants of Queen Street gave their fans the dream start they wanted when Clark scored after 30 minutes.You could say this was rough justice on the visitors who, up to this point had been the more threatening side,but as stated many times previously on this blog,it's the ball in the net what counts ! It didn't take long for Rangers to level,10 minutes in fact.You sensed this wasn't the end of the scoring and the visitors pressure paid off with a second.Back came Town with a second equalizer and so it went back and forth with both sides not content with a draw.
This
is the sort of stuff that drew me away from paying good money to watch
crap Football League games and long may it continue.Credit to both sides
for going at it hammer and tongs with some great passing,cracking goals
and some really committed tackling.
