Another brilliant morning for the S&A U8 Blues away at Crosby Stuart — good team,
good people and good football. The pitches were excellent too, and as we pulled into their club the crisp February sunshine was shining and it honestly felt like everyone had missed mornings like that.
The game itself was full of energy and chances. We created loads of opportunities and had several proper goalmouth scrambles where on another day the ball just drops kindly and we’re celebrating a flurry of goals!
Massive shout out to Joey and Patrick on their rotation in goal — especially with Joey nursing an injury. Both showed great bravery and did the team proud, and it was great to see Patrick on his debut.
Reggie and Arthur were absolute powerhouses again, strong and committed. Joseph, Emiel and Mark worked the channels really well, stretching the game and getting balls into the box.
Goals today came from Emiel and Arthur and 'Player of the Match' — never an easy choice — went to Joseph for his work rate, tracking back and moving the ball around to create chances for others. Proper team performance.
Progress is being made every single week and the attitude is spot on.
