Kingston Classic

Two matches: one win, one defeat but all in all a highly enjoyable encounter with our local rivals.

Henry M
Was alert when he needed to be and it was good to have him back barking orders between the sticks.

Ollie
Didn't touch the ball in goal but played with poise and precision in central midfield.

Rory
Next time we'll get the RFU to delay their kick off so we can get Rory away in time. Strong, controlled and unbeatable.

Toby
Quicksilver clearances and rock hard tackles. The bionic blocker at the back.

Ben
Captain Fantastic. Played the game of his life against his former classmates and bossed the central areas.

Adam
The right man in the right place with two brilliant finishes to cement the win.

Will
Tricky out wide and played an integral part in setting up Cumnor's classic second goal.

Fyn
Took his goal beautifully and fed Adam cleverly to score our second. Always on the prowl up front.

James S
Showed nerves of steel to score a John Barnes-esque solo goal.

Henry S
Looked at home in the central areas and cracked in a left foot beauty from a tight angle.


Matt

Ran his heart out and made it almost impossible for the Kingston playmakers to find space. A midfield dynamo.

Binky
Determined, committed and dangerous with the ball at his feet. Played the wide role very well.

Joe
Kept fighting, kept battling and was the heartbeat of a very spirited side.

Ed
Unlucky in goal but still made some great saves. Worked very hard in defence and made it tough for Kingston.

James E
Linked well with the midfield and did his share of tracking back. Unlucky not get any clear chances.

We were very proud of all the boys. In the first match we linked well and played as a unit. The passing and precision was spot on. In the second match, the boys were unlucky to go behind. They never stopped fighting and gave all they had against a very good side.

Player of the Week: Easy choice this week, performance of the season so far... Ben.
