We knew we'd have to make the wind advantage pay in the first half and we had about 90% of the territory. It took a while but Fyn opened the scoring with a neat finish. Rory got the second with a powerful drive before a clever pass by Adam saw Will in for the third and a half-time lead of 3-0.
We tinkered, we re-shaped, we brought Ben into the centre, pushed Will wide, brought Joe on and placed Josh in the heart of defence with Rory. We knew we'd be under the cosh due to the trying conditions but didn't expect to go two down quite so quickly. All the insecurities, all the bad luck that's dogged us this season came flooding back and suddenly, Chippy were level. We tweaked again, pulling Will central and pushing James E and Lucas wide. Then the penny dropped and Cumnor started playing football. Will found Fyn who nodded it to Adam to slam in the fourth. All the fear and insecurity slipped away and Cumnor played like the Cumnor of old and it was fitting that Fyn scored two awesome goals to complete his hat-trick... and show the crowd his 'Sleepover Celebration'. 3-0 up, 3-3 and then a 6-3 win... there's never been a game like it.
Player of the Week: James S, Josh and Rory... Matt in the first-half, Will and Ben in midfield but it came down to Adam and Fyn. Adam set up 4 of the 6 goals and scored a beauty but in the end, Fyn for taking his chances so brilliantly
