[Darin Morse]

Foxhole 6 St Teath 1 - a great game of a much higher standard than 10, 20 or even 30 years ago

[MCB]

Roche 0 Torpoint 4

A game of two penalties.  A stone wall penalty not given to Roche just before halftime when the score was one nil

Then a penalty to torpoint just after halftime that never should have been

Torpoint a very good side . Roche worked hard and can't fault there effort and commitment.

Sounds like a game with 3 other goals too, all conceded by your defence and no one else.

Do the other 3 goals scored by Torpoint not play a part in the tale? Or were they the refs fault too?

Torpoint are a good side and were the better team, certainly don't need the help they received today at key points in the game.

I understand football, but Torpoint scored 3 other goals. Yes at 1-1 things may have been different but they may also have not.

 

If, buts and maybes.

What was the stone wall? The handball? If so yeah it did come off a leg and onto his arm and away amongst a melee. Got a little lucky with it maybe. 
The pen for us was a pen. Not sure how you can say it wasn’t? Cross from the left with our right back with a free header gets a shove in the back. Easy. 
We were poor today. Think the ref did ok to be fair. Usually consistent and far from the worst around. 

[Roche Raider]

Wheels well and truly coming off at Nanpean eh? 👀

Yes, the right back was shoved in the back...by his own team mate at the far post with the ball 5 yards above heads on it's way for a goal kick! No appeals from Torpoint players but a few wry smiles afterwards. Fair play, you was the better team, would probably have won anyway and will more likely win the league again with the quality you have, but as said above all ifs, buts and maybe's in that moment. 

[Foul Throw 3]

Unless his team mate had red and black on I’d have to disagree. But only one man had the whistle so we can respectfully agree to disagree. My angle was different to yours on the opposite side so if I’m wrong I’m wrong. Just the angle I had was a shove from the left back. All the best for the rest of your season until the reversal at ours.

St Dennis v st minver 

Another game out the way,we need to stop conceding silly goals,think st minver had a 4 minute spell just before half time where they got 4 goals n that killed us,another different line up of players as well so back to the drawing board again lol.

Well reffed by Alan Howells and his linos,no sin bins this week either so at least summin went right 🤣

Roche 0 - 4 Torpoint Ath

Torpoint goalscorers - Chris Westall, Jay Hussey, Josh Payn, Ryan Easterbrook 

Lineup: WestallM, Bark, WhiteJ, Pearce, Hussey, Brown, Robbins, Rowe, Easterbrook, Blair, WestallC.

Subs: Larson, Payn, WhiteS, Burns, Bays.

An impotent performance from us yesterday with a real lack of cutting edge. A frustrating day did end up with 3pts and a clean sheet though which is a positive and the minimum we asked for on arrival to Roche.

We moved the ball with patience from the back throughout the first half, but couldn't progress beyond the midfield with lacking runners ahead or lacking ideas on it. With only WestallC having a positive game up top it's no surprise the only goal of the first half came from him. A good through ball by left back Hussey found the skipper through on goal inside the left hand channel and a sublime finish chipped over the goalkeeper for 1-0 around 10mins. At this point I/we expected the floodgates to open, and maybe that was our downfall. With the one goal cushion Pearce and White in particular were patient in possession to wait for openings into midfield or further up, but with little effect. The slick surface allowed the ball to move easily but we couldn't get it into the feet of the usually dangerous Easterbrook or Blair, nor did we create when we did with poor decision making or a lack of confidence. The only other significant chance for us in the first half was Easterbrook through on goal with a defender closing and time to get a shot away from 18yds, but hesitance and a failed chop allowed the defender to recover and the threat was cleared. WestallC also hit the post from a glancing header after a cross from out wide but it bounced away to safety. 

With us not adding to our tally, Roche grew in confidence and went into the half time break buoyant at only being a goal down and were unfortunate to not win a penalty after a set piece melee resulted in a pinball ricochet onto Rowe's arm before being cleared, but it wasn't given. Sometimes you make your own luck and I felt rather fortunate at the time. But hugely disappointed in the score line at the break and some things were addressed and two changes made. 

The 2nd half wasn't loads better with a reduced quality in service out wide and we didn't get the introduced Larson into the game or Payn on the ball out wide on either side. A break down the left did allow us to get our 2nd though. The ball broke to Hussey who put in a decent cross to 16yr old debutant Aidan Bark at the back post who got a shove in the back from the opposition full back. Imo an easy decision but not once you often see given. The Roche dugout on the opposite side strongly disagreed but a mirror image view of my angle so who knows. Hussey's spot kick was well saved by an early dive, but Hussey reacted quickly to stuck away the rebound and got a whack in the process. 

The 3rd didn't come along quickly either. An inswinging Hussey corner wasn't gathered by the home keeper and I'm unsure if it was an OG or Payn tap in. By his own standards not Hussey's greatest game but a fantasy football manager's dream yesterday. The 4th and final goal came very late on with only a minute remaining. Again a lack of ideas probably left to frustration, so from 30-35yds centre half Pearce hit a fierce low drive which was well saved in the slippery conditions, but the ball was spilled loose for WestallC to do something inexplicable and the ball made it's way for **** of the Day Easterbrook to fire in the easiest goal he'll get all season. 

On reflection, though the performance lacked much attacking threat, we were without a few key faces and entering September we've won 5 in a row and avoided any banana skins. Huge shining lights yesterday were the 4x 16yr olds involved with 2 starting debuts. Aidan Bark in particular impressed me with composure and confidence at right back.

Two week break now before the trip to St Teath vs Will Kitto's men. Another fine inbound for me and Robbins as we're away in Ireland for a wedding. At least the Guinness will be CL quality rather than yesterday's fizzy excuse.
