Stourport

Apols to HH who dutifully kept updating me, even as I was vomiting in the ditch in the middle of a cheeky Boxing Day 20.

You really shouldn't drink 20 pints with a marathon coming up soon..............disappointing............

All in all a good performance. Some of the earlier and late sloppiness may have cost us against better teams, but that was never likely against a very poor Stourport. Jones and Chiltern were my pick outs for the day, but everybody put in a good shift. It could have been many more, but hopefully we will have saved some of them for when better opposition arrive on saturday.

Latest Halesowen Town 4 Stourport Swifts 1 Bridges penalty 80th, absolutely appalling decision by the ref.

Really? I thought blocking a shot with both arms was illegal unless you are the goalkeeper, I could be wrong though and luckily it didn't matter as the game was won by that stage. Haven't seen much of Yeltz this season, but first 20 mins or so of 2nd half were excellent, albeit against a pretty average Stourport.

I'm guessing the issue is that it seemed the ball was blasted at the Yeltz player from about 6inches away giving him no chance to avoid it. It least, that's the way it appeared to me from the Shed! The reaction from those around me seemed to be one of bemusement. Still, as you say, it didn't affect things. Having said that, if it had been 1-1....

nice to see the players in the yeltz bar after match, all in it together..bringing the spirit of htfc back again.
