v Debenham LC (away) 10/8/19

We journeyed down to Debenham

To play at Friends’ Meadow,

The wind was gushing manically

And in strength seemed to grow!

The Shannocks had the better start

With chances carved out well,

But come the second half, the hosts

Absconded from their shell!

Although it was not right until

The dying moments when

A twist and cross from George Abbott

Helped Ash add to his pen.

He lost his marker easily,

From close range volleyed home,

Leaving the Debenham defence

To, from their mouths, all foam!

It’s two in two for Jarvis now,

A top signing he’s been,

But sadly, with the final touch

The football gods were mean!

The Hornet’s Seccombe headed home

A cruel blow, but we’ll take

The positives, a point away

Our heads we shall not shake!

In tough conditions, over all

A point apiece was fair,

And through this brand new learning curve

Write us off if you dare!

Next week we travel down to March

Again we’re on the road,

Chris Wigger and his great tactics

The teams’ brains will decode!

The Reds have settled in so well

Each week they give their all,

It’s such a pleasure to witness

This passionate football!
