CENTRAL MIDLANDS FOOTBALL LEAGUE SOUTH--28 JAN 2015 7.45PM--@ THE RAYGAR STADIUM
THE RAYGAR HOME OF MICKLEOVER SPORTS AND MICKLEOVER ROYALS |
The night had a frustrating delayed start due to public transport falling to show and I did fear what this could signal for a late night especially with the snow forecast around the county.
Well upon arrival at the Raygar stadium, home of landlords Mickleover Sports, it was entrance via the club house [see picture].
TONIGHTS 'ENTERANCE' |
Also in attendance was Malc the regular referees assessor on the CMFL circuit and with him former football league referee Rob Shoebridge.
REFS ASSESSOR MALC |
After a warming half time break in the clubhouse along with a chip cob, featuring what seemed like real chip shop chips kept warm in the oven, it was time to re emerge into what was now becoming a colder evening. The Royals were more convincing in the second period but they failed to score any more goals and over the 90 minutes the score line was probably the correct one although Holbrook St Michaels has put up a league position denying performance against table toppers Mickleover Royals.
THOUGHTS OF WARMER DAYS |
A great shame in a football loving city that even the locals didn't come out to support their team who are doing so well this season.
This victory starts to open the gap up at the top of the CMFL South for Michleover and with games in hand they should comfortably pull away at the top over the coming weeks.
As for Holbrook St Michaels they put up a stirling effort that made you question their league postiton and maybe they will start to rise up the table on the back of performances like this.
