Hi again,
Sorry for delay this week, but here is the report in the end.


Report Gary Stevens
Redhill Albion 3 – Chipstead B 1 - Under 9’s

Winning ways were maintained during this weekend, beating a determined Chipstead side. This was a hurdle very well negotiated indeed.

With goals reigning in from all parts last week (with particular reference to Robins Lewer’s first goal for The Albion) the spectators and coaching staff are becoming ever more expectant of success. This particular home fixture (trailing one – nil in the first half) was tougher than anticipated.

The previous week’s hustle and bustle was unfortunately missing this week; one thing ever present however is the lad’s relentless inability to accept defeat. Coming back from one – nil to a convincing win is inconceivable from a troupe of players of this age-group.

This game didn’t flow as usual, and it would be fair to say it was one of those battles that provided little flair. I think the media usually call this type of game “winning ugly”.

Strong and driven performances rather like James Smarts of this week are going to be vital in the run up to the end of the season. A top two position is certainly within the grasp of Redhill Albion.

And I thought that football was a non contact sports

The feminine touch
