Christchurch v Broadstone

Match Result: 4 - 0

Goal Scorers: Harry C (2), Olly B (2)

We'd picked up a couple of injuries (Bubba and Oliver D) and Brandon was away so even with Connor making his debut we only had ten players. Broadstone have only earned 4 points this season and so with all due respect we expected the win.

We started well enough and within 5 minutes Olly Balmer tucked the first one away after a good run from Harry. It was a hard pitch on Iford Lane and we struggled to get the ball down and pass it around - whenever we did we scored; twice from Harry and another by Olly.

That was 4 nil at half time and we expected to get better. But the second have was more of the same but our finishing deserted us. Despite numerous chances we failed to score and so had to settle for the 4 which was frustrating knowing this game gave us the opportunity to overtake Kingswood's 5 goal goal difference advantage over us.

Still any disappointment was quickly erased as we heard Kingswood had drawn against Branksome and Poole Town had drawn against Ringwood. Kingswood meet Poole Town on Tuesday and if that game results in a draw (and my maths are right) we can afford to lose to Kingswood on Thursday and still win the league.

Special mention to Ethan. This was his last game of the season as he goes on holiday now. Well done for another fantastic season Ethan!!
