16th November 08 - Coaches View

The key to this game is to learn for the future, if we do that we will have a very good season.   Positives   - We kept trying right to the end of the game - We created lots of chances - Some good indiviual performances   Learning Points   - In football you will never succeed if you back away from tackles or blocking shots, too many times today certain players backed away from these challenges which let the team down.  - Keep to your positions, as soon as anyone gives up or stops playing where they have been asked we will concede goals which happened in this game. - Keep to what we discuss before the game, today we nearly gave goals away by playing a short freekick in our 18 yard box and also a short throw when defending. - Attack corners both in defence and attack.   Captains Award - Gareth - for his effort throughout the game and high standard of performance.   Coaches Award - Ben - Well deserved goal, constantly battled for the ball and made intelligent runs to receive the ball when going forward.
