Warstones Wanderers 7 AFC Bilbrook 1
So,just before the start we ask 'where can we get a cup of coffee' ? Mick Mullen of WW says to someone in the background 'make these two lads a drink'. Class.
From kick-off it soon becomes obvious who's bossing this game.Wanderers look to have too much in their arsenal for the visitors and within 5 minutes they are ahead through Miller who looks like he could bludgeon his way through a barn door.Try as they might,Bilbrook are unable to break through a resolute,organised home defence.On 35 minutes the hosts increase their lead through Gray.
The second half was a goal-fest with Gray and Miller each bagging another,with Westwood and Males(penalty)also getting on the score sheet.You had to feel for the visitors;they were up against a much stronger outfit but to be fair,they never let their heads drop,kept going to the end and got a consolation goal from a penalty.
A real good game with bags of commitment,full-blooded tackles(but never dirty) and lots of goal-mouth action.
It would be remiss of me on completing this report, to not mention the WW people Mick Mullen and Angela Jones who were brilliant;filling us in on the history of the club and topping it off by inviting us to the post-match feed at the Swan in Tettenhall.Did I say class? Top class.
