Woodley Sports v Hyde United

Twas a 1-0 for the "underdogs" if you like ...


A bit disappointed with Hyde today - they looked a lot better at Clitheroe than they did today (yet to hear anyone blame the "fieldturf" though).

Woodley - hard to say really - talking to Tony Whiteside early on, the situation at Woodley is not dissimilar to that at Mossley i.e. new Manager coming in and literally starting with a squad of ZERO (Ok at Woodley it's 3 - Mossley it's 0). I'll be brutal - Mario (Daniel) still flatters to deceive - if he concentrated on his game rather than getting involved in petty squabbles all the time ....

However if you recall my Clitheroe v Hyde post (back to "feisty", "robust" etc !!) - there was similar at Lambeth Grove today - including a "pitch invasion" from the Hyde bench after what looked like a sending-off (for dissent ??)

I think common sense was restored and the player was in effect "substituted" cause Hyde were soon back up to 11 players. I guess the referees have their "pre-season training" too - although if today's - and last night's at Mossley - are the state of things to come this year - officious, fussy - gobby even. I'd certainly be interested to read the 2007/08 "directive" that's been issued to referees (something like "Number 1 - P*ss everyone off; Number 2 - See Number 1" - maybe a little harsh but - use some bloody discretion for Frith's sake .....)

I think it's "Luke" on the Hyde board who said something like "It's only a PSF" - the Hyde fans were chanting "1-0 - in your Cup Final" - season starts for some next Saturday does it not ??? Woodley, Mossley and the rest of the Unibond still have another week....

Cracking goal to win the game mind - another Mario I believe (Brayant)
