‘That’s Why We’re Champions’

20/09/2009 by Russell.

United at the death beat old City rivals, thanks to a scouser, you just can’t write a script like it, life better than fiction, first Manchester derby I have missed in 4 years, and this is the one which seems to be the one to end all derbies.  Ah well, plenty of others to come.  Well let’s see if it does the trick for United’s less than convincing start to the season in terms of performances.

As for the boys - U15s - we got off to our first win in the cup today, thanks to a patched up team and a superb hat-trick by my centre forward Ben.  he scored a very late winner with a last kick of the match from the edge of the area after a mix up between keeper and defender.  However, we conceded defeat because we were playing two unregistered players.  I didn’t want to incur a club fine, money which can be better spent elsewhere.  Our Greg was ill, Keeper Toby felt sick and dizzy (another sterling display) and so we had players under the weather.

Greg has settled well into central midfield, and has the technique to look for the pass, and had two wonderful dribbles today leaving their No 7 on his backside.  Big Keiran needs his fitness levels to be improved, there were some flagging players at the end, but on the whole we deserved our victory against Cookham Dean.
