BRNESC SLUMPED TO A SECOND STRAIGHT DEPRESSING DEFEAT 4 1 AT THE HANDS OF ALUMNI,TRAILING  4 1 AFTER 40 MINS WITH A FIRST HALF DISPLAY OF MIND NUMBING MEDIOCRITYTHEY IMPROVED SECOND HALF,THEY IN ALL TRUTH COULDNT BE WORSE!!!,THEY COULDNT DRAG BACK THE DEFICIT,

IT WAS DE JA VEAU AT JERICHO LANE ,12 MTHS AGO WE SLUMPED TO A 3 0 DEFEAT HERE AND WE STARTED EXACTLY THE SAME CARELSS AND SLOPPY.IN THE FIRST 10 MINS WE HARDLY PASSED A BALL TO EACH OTHER ,NO COMMUNICATION AND A SLAPDASH DISPLAY ALL ROUND.

AFTER 10 MINS WE GAVE AWAY A HORRENDOUS GOAL ,A KICK FROM THE KEEPER WAS INEXPLICABLY LEST BY OUR USUALLY RELIABLE CENTRE BACKS,PHIL AND CHRIS,THE ALUMNI ,JAN MOLBY SHAPED FORWARD CHASED IT AND LOBBED THE BALL OVER THE ADVANCING DARREN NAGLE .CHRISTMAS HAD COME EARLY FOR THE BURLY FORWARD. 1 0 ALUMNI.

WORSE WAS TO FOLLOWANOTHER BALL DOWN THE MIDDLE ENDED WITH PHIL THE WRONG SIDE OF A FORWRD WHO SHRUEED BHIN OFF AND ROUNDED DARREN TO SLOT INTO THE EMPTY NET  2 0 ALUMNIA 2 GIFTS 2 AWFUL GOALS TO CONCDEDE LEAVING BRNESC WITH A MOUNTAIN TO CLIMB TO GET BACK INTO THE GAME.

BRNESC TRIED TO RESPOND AND JOE STEPHENS SHOT OVER THE BAR ,BRNESC SHOULD HAVE REDUCED THE DEFICIT WHEN MICK O BROKE DOWN THE LEFT ADVANCED ALONG THE GOAL LINE BUT INSTESD OF PASSING TO BETTER PLACED COLLEGUES HE SHOT INTO THE SIDE NETTING ,A WASTE

BRNESWC WERE STILL PLAYING POORLY AND WERE UNDER PRESSURE FROM A LIVELY ALUMNI OUTFIT.POOR AS BRNESC WERE THEY STILL HAD CHANCES,1  2 BETWEEN RITCHIE AND JOE P ENDED WITH JOE SHOOTING OVER THE  BAR.PHIL ATTEMPTED VOLLEY FRO PADDYS FREE KICK GATHERED BY THE KEEPER

BRNESC THEN MADE IT  2 1 IN THE 20 MIN WHEN JOE STEPHENS RACED INTO THE BOX AND PULLED BACK THR BALL TO RITCHIE WHOSE SHOT WAS SAVED ,JOE PERLES  EFFORT ALSO BLOCKED THE BALL FELL TO MICK O ,AFTER THIS BOUT OF PIN BALL AND HE VOLLEYED IT HOME 2 1,RITCHIE THEN SHOT OVER FROM PADDYS PASS AS BRNESC AT LAST STARTED TO STIR THEMSELVES.PHIL THEN HEADED A GOOD CHANCE WIDE OF THE POST.DARREN THEN CAME TO THE RECUE WITH A SAVE IN THE 25 MIN BLOCKING WITH HIS FEET.

JOE STEPHENS SLIPPED RITCHIE INTO THE BOX HIS SHOT BEING DEFLECTED FOR A CORNER IN THE 36 MIN THE GREEN SHOOTS OF A BRNESC RECOVERY WERE TROD UNDERFOOT WHEN FROM A OFFSIDE POSITION ALUMNI MADE IT  3 1.IT WAS OFFSIDEV BUT OUR INEPT PLAY ENABLED THEM TO GREATE THE OPPORTUNITYN IN THR FIRST PLACE.JOHN ROBBO THEN SHOT PVER THE BAR BEFORE ANOTHER BOUT OF INEPTITUDE ENABLED ALUMNA TO STROLL THROUGH THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF OUR TEAM AND SLOT PAST DARREN

JOE BURKE WAS REPLACED BY JOE ASPINALL AND THE FORMATION SWITCHED TO 3 AT THE BACK AS LIVID MANAGER ROBBIE WHITE GAVE THE TEAM THE FERGIE HAIR DRYER

TREATMENT AT HALF TIME.IT NEARLY WORKED AS JOE PARLE FED RITCHIE IN THE BOS BUT HIS SHOT WAS STRAIGHT AT THE KEEPER,RITCHIE THEN PLAYED A CROSSFIELD BALL TO THE BACK POST WHERE JAY SHOT OVER THE BAR.RITHIE THEN HIT A FRR KICK INCHES OVER THE BAR AS BRNESC STRIVED TO GET BACK INTO THE GAME.

MICK O THEN PLAYED A 1 2 WITH RITCHIE BUT HIS SHOT WAS ALSO STRAIGHT AT THE KEEPER ,

BRNESC WERE NOW DOMINATING BUT IN TRUTH IT WAS HUFF AND PUFF THEY NEVER LOOKED LIKE THEY WERE GOING TO TURN THE POSSESSION INTO GOALS,SNATCHING AT THE CHANCES CREATED AND LACKING COOLNESS IN FRONT OF GOAL AND THEIR DECISION MAKING WAS PARTICULARILY POOR

IT WASNT ALL ONE WAY DARREN HAD TO PALM A FIERCE SHOT AROUND THE POSTAND ALUMNI ALSO HEADED A GOOD CHANCE OVER THE BAR

JOE STEPHENS ,OUR BEST PLAYER ON THE DAY BROUGHT A BRILLIANT SAVE  FROM THE KEEPER ,WHO HAVIND FLAPPED AT THE BALL RECOVERED ANS BLOCKED JOE'S GOALBOUND SHOT PLUNGING AT JOE'S FEET.JOE PARLE THEN ADVANCED INTO THE BOX BUT PUT HIS SHOT WIDE .PHIL THEN PUT ANOTHER HEADER OVER THE BAR ,

AT THE END 4 1 ALUMNI ,A THOROUGHLY WRETCHED DISPLAY AND WE DESERVED WHAT WE GOT  SWEET FA!!! JOE STEPHENS GETS  M O M FOR A TYPICAL PERFORMANCE ALL ACTION NEVER SAY DIE DISPLAY A FEW MORE LIKE HIM WE WOULD NOT HAVE LOST TO AQ AVERAGE TEAM.WE NEED TO WAKE UP BEFORE ITS TO LATE.
