An awful start to our league campaign with three defeats at a very snowy and cold Grimsby Clee Fields. In fact the day started off on a negative note with Les Potton having car problems enroute so the squad was reduced to the minimum 6 players, with no sub.
Put plainly, over the three games we played poorly and despite having periods where we improved, the whole squad were off their game, so much so that five of the six goals we conceded came from us giving the ball to the opposition from loose passes in our own half.
Results:
