Bideford 0-1 Central United

What an amazing way to end the season, beating our nemesis to stay up.........I never doubted you for one minute!!  We were deserved winners playing some fantastic football with fantastic team spirit.

Early in the second half George delivered a dangerous whipping free kick into the box that only needed the faintest of touches to guide it in which Marcus gladly obliged.  With about 25 minutes to see out on a slender lead it was always going to be nervy but I felt we were pretty much in control of things and could have even grabbed another when Marcus, with his back to goal, turned and volleyed a great shot forcing a great save by the Bideford keeper but it wasn't required, as due to some brilliant defending, 1 goal was all we needed in the end to see them off and finish the season on a great high.  

There were a number of brilliant performances but I am going to give Man if the Match to Joseph for having one of his best games of the season, despite not feeling 100%.  Also, his goal line clearance in the first half was so important in preventing us going behind before half time. 

I thought it would be good to get together tomorrow at KGV for one final kick about before we break for the summer.  As my treat, there will be hot dogs, chips and some soft drinks afterwards. I thought we could meet at 6.15pm and play a game amongst ourselves until about 7pm and then grab some food which will take us to about 7.45pm.  If there are any vegetarians amongst you, pop me a text.

Well done all and look forward to seeing you tomorrow.
