After our recent run of form during the last four away games I was not expecting it to come crashing down in such an unremarkable way yesterday.
We started brightly, scoring within four minutes and for the next fifteen appeared to be well in control, another goal and the game would have been won. Gradually Westfield got themselves back into the game and for the remaining minutes of the game were unlucky not to have been level.
At the end of the half with the teams in their respective dressing rooms it was possibly ten minutes before our management team left the pitch, so losing valuable time to explain an adjustment of our playing tactics because the first half`s display was to say the least poor.
At the start of the second half Westfield were the team showing they wanted it more and we just did not compete, our passing was atrocious, I have seen better in the park, the quality of play the team had been showing recently away from home just was not there. Naturally and deservedly so, Westfield drew level and it was no surprise that they eventually scored a winner in the third minute of extra time.
At the end of the game as supporter`s we could only hold our hands up and say the best team won.
One disappointment for me was the loud criticism by several of our supporters who were close by to me in the stand, making their feelings known in a manner that in no way could have inspired the players to up their game, how they thought that would encourage the players is beyond me, sure we were all bitterly disappointed but that reaction from (so called fans) does not help the team.
