Perry Street suffered a dispiriting loss at the hands of Brentwood Sports. Looking at the positives, a tactical switch at half-time paid dividends when Jack and Alex decided that the prolific striker (ex Arsenal academy), should be man-marked. This had a significant impact on the second half and but for an audacious chip – without doubt the best goal we have seen this season – the score in the second half would have been 0-1. The Perry Street goal was well executed with Matthew supplying a great cross which James finished with aplomb. Manager Howard Wright awarded the Man of the Match to Safe Hands Sans, who pulled of a string of excellent saves, including a dramatic backpedalling tip over his cross-bar. Next week’s trip to Harold Park sees the start of the ‘double header’ against promotion chasing Cougars. A dramatic improvement is required.
