Match Report

Match Report - 16 Jan 2010, Aldershot and Farnham Hockey Club Mens 2 lost to Bournemouth 3


Snow was not going to be an issue this week down in Bournemouth, so the league could get going again.

A lovely drive down in thundering rain and a hearty breakfast at Winchester Service Station was a real treat.

A full squad of 13 and a positive attitude were key, however, severely lacking was a healthy fit team. Instead what we had was a royally stuffed team full on christmas cheer.

Chris Randall however fully deserved his MOM for a very solid and reliable game in central defence.

A three way tie for DOD was resolved in the evening when Aaron was the slowest to down his "Dr Pepper".
This showed in the match, a frenetic and stop start game was never how AFHC M2s liked playing and although took an early lead, failed to really click in to gear. The game continued throughout and ended in a 3-2 loss. A fairly close game as Basingstoke also failed to really click in to a fluent way, but probably on the day looked the better side so deserved the result.
