Men draw 4-4 with Cirencester

The day had come, first game back since the tournament season and the north wilts win in the shield was a distant memory.

Cirencester were the opponents, their skill & wisdom of higher leagues were apparent from the start. 10 minutes gone and north wilts were clearing the cobwebs with a slow start to the game, getting to know the Cirencester foreigners and their play style.

What followed next could only be thought of as some sort of weird dream world or drug hallucination in which KIRAN out-paced his man over a distance of at least 10 meters to win the ball and nicely dribble it past his defender to place the ball on Jake's stick; looked like Jake would of preferred it on his strong side but the team won't argue with Kiran running for once. Never the less a whizzing reverse shot went top backboard to make it 1-0 the wilts.
Dominating play by wilts over the next 20 mins results in a, well lets just call it a goal from damo. "Some say a slug has been proved to move faster than that shot" - they all count! - editor.

1 minute left in the 1st and Cirencester shoot from the top D to bounce into the net. ( cheers vickers, apparently it was my fault for not closing him down ) but I'll take it for the team?. Half time 2-1 to wilts.

A great start to the second half from wilts results in an equaliser from Cirencester 2-2.

Never say never said bieber and we took that attitude , short corner from wilts and Jake parted the ciren defenders like Moses parted the sea, followed by a rifled shot to the top left corner of the net 3-2 wilts.

5 minutes later Cirencester walked into the d and scored from the top! Followed by a short corner 5 mins later, Cirencester scored their 4th goal! (Booo)

Kiran on the ball again looking to take on his man and; what's this?! he's pulled up looking like some sort of pregnant lady having contractions. Bad back it was, shame we were all looking forward to another one of his darting speedster runs! Ahh well, ben picks the ball up, left to right back to left and then left some more, Darren's had enough & takes the ball off of Ben and scores.4-4.
Cirencester try to rally, north wilts give their all, Jake heroically tries to stop a pass only to slip and resemble Steven Gerrard against Chelsea, feel bad for the guy now, I mean it wasn't entirely his fault they lost the league that season, Liverpool really aren't that good. Final whistle 4-4 great result!

Man of the match - tom. Great debut.
Donkey - Jake, I feel you Steven.
