Game of two halves !

West Midlands Regional League Premier Div

Bilston Town Community 2  Pegasus Juniors 2        Queen Street Stadium,Bilston

We often hear managers quoting 'this was a game of two halves' ; well,this one was exactly that.In the cold light of day the hosts will wonder 'how on earth did we not win this game'? Bilston were far and away the much better team in a one-sided first half where they ought to have improved on their one goal lead and the visitors were restricted to a single shot on goal. As to what happened at half-time,I can only surmise. Did the visiting manager give his players the 'Fergie' treatment ? Whatever ; it was a completely different Pegasus side that turned up for the second half(the same could be said about Bilston !). The hosts got a second goal and must have thought ' job done'. Well it wasn't, as the visitors pressed for something from the game,the home defence were slow to clear their lines and Pegasus pulled one back.Game on ! The visitors gained their due reward from some enterprising play with a second goal. From that point either side could have won it but a draw was the final result.

A great game for the neutral spectator.
