Still Undefeated But I Don’t Know How Posted by Steve on Tuesday, 29th January, 2008 at 1:50 am
Well Calverton’s amazing undefeated streak continues to 14 after their 4-1 home victory over Vernon Colts last weekend.
Just to put a bit of meat around the headline, Calverton got a very flattering scoreline in the end but should owe some due respect to Vernon who really did not deserve the final result. Those of us that were there saw an unimaginative first half, and then a get out of jail free second half to give us the points. Yes I know it’s kids football and you’re probably shouting leave it Steve, but this is Div 1 football, highly competitive and definately up for critic. Calverton were made to look easy by a well formed, strong, battling side that honestly could have taken the result if their early chances had been put away. Perhaps we are sitting on our laurels but Vernon could and should have given the lads the wake up they need, simple basic football has been forgotten yet somehow we came away with three points.
Every week I keep writing positive but sorry boys this week is your kick up the bum! This Saturday we play Drezden and we know just how good they are. Some old familiar faces there too..Ross, Jordan (former players for those who don’t know them) it will be good to see you back at ours again.
Anyway blag over…why not feedback..use the contact page and let me know your thoughts. It’s so lonely on here. Go on have your say!

Our second encounter with Vernon currently with 8 losses and 2 wins are looking to get something out of this game after also bowing out of the shield last week to WB Lions.
Elliot gets the game under way with a nice ball to Luke who lets fly but the shot is deflected for a corner, Vernon deal with it and push the ball back up field. 4 minutes played and Luke earns us a corner which Dane takes the ball headed out finds Raynor who’s overhead kick is over the bar for goal kick.
