Fleece 'A' vs Pinderfields 9 and a half men . . .





(Got to this game late after Tuesday night kickabout with 'Engineers blue' (and assortment of catering crew).
Fleece went 7-0 up just as l arrived, Ben Inman (no 10) nodding over a defender (bottom pic - for some reason they still load up in reverse order) and 10 minutes to go before half-time. Pinderfields were on the backfoot with only 9 men at this stage, ironically sponsored by Unison (given the turn-out).
Fleece played in their red and black away kit, sponsored by safeguard fencing (?).

As could be expected traffic was largely one-way, Fleece having enough chances to double this score - plenty of near misses plus the odd misskick, skied and wide effort.
Pinderfields to their credit battled on in good spirit, managing to keep up the camaraderie, some good individual skills on display and even managing some good breaks, though abley coped with.
After the break Pinderfields were up to 10 men and managed to hold out somewhat better than the first half, 'only' conceding 3 more goals - the last 2 being deflected own goals.

16 year old Ryan came on for the last 20 minutes, having a decent run and some 3 attempts on goal. None taken though not a bad start.
