The pitch was great, the sun was out
In Leiston we were set,
And once again a goal fest us
Shannocks fans soon would get!
The match began most lively, with
It’s tempo sharp and quick,
And after only twelve minutes
A goal Kerry would nick.
A Cary run was finished, calm
And almost number two
Was added shortly after when
Kerry was put clean through!
His shot flew over bar and stand
But then we ‘heard’ them rumble…
The Reds were hungry for more goals;
Leiston’s defence would crumble!
After the break it happened fast
Tim Cary firing home,
And then, at last, Jarvis would score
When in the box he’d roam.
He smashed in from a fiery cross
But just before the third,
The Blues had their sub sent straight off
With Kerry’s vision blurred!
The Shannocks bossed the game in style
Their passing most sublime,
And Boycey had a ‘turn’ in goal
(An early pantomime)!
Next Abbo, from a corner kick
Nodded home number four,
Before Jarvo’s class powerstrike
Burst Leiston’s net once more!
Defending – the Reds strong and smart
Guarded their box with pride,
Big Carus, with his quality
Again bolstered the side.
That’s three wins on the trot for Shez
As up to fourth we move,
Kings Lynn Reserves are here next Sat
And we are in the groove!
