A usual close encounter v Bank who had suffered a heavy defeat in the first week of the season. They had a full-strength team and for a lot of the match were on top, despite Berries having several good shots on goal (Cairalee – you were on fire, bad toe or no bad toe) but the stand-in goalie for Bank denied us any ...

So near and yet so far ….. once again, London Eds defeated us by one solitary goal which came half-way through the first half. They had bought a full squad of 16 players.

There was ...
