Our fantastic team were winners of their pool and although having drawn 0 – 0 to East Grinstead, they then beat both Wimbledon & Wallingford 2 – 0 to reach a place in the cup quarter finals. Here they met the City of Portsmouth and still worked relentlessly with some fantastic defence by both Spencer, Gillen & Bussell, feeding into the Rollett/Gillen midfield & down the flanks to ever spirited and dangerous combination of Atkins, Atkinson, Watts, Peacock & Dees. Goal keeper King lived up to his name in saving a barrage of shots and keeping a clean sheet of the tournament. 2 – 0 to Marlow again.
A few niggles of fatigue, illness & injury were creeping in by the semi- finals which became a big challenge for them both mentally & physically against a very strong – and eventual winners - Canterbury. Good character building stuff to cope with goals against them and still not give up.
You made us all proud boys & great end to the season.
