Mossley v Harrogate RA



... all a bit of a rush today - had promised to do some overtime which saw me not getting home until nearly 1430 hrs. Quick change (leaving RM hat on mind !!) before dashing up to Seel Park. The frosty weather had made me doubt the games "existence", but thanks to some sterling work by the groundstaff the pitch was hard, flat and perfectly playable.

A "cagey" first half saw Mossley take the lead on the stroke of half-time when Matty Kay curled on into the top corner from just outside the box (he'd tried the same trick a couple of times earlier in the game as well !). Further goals from Kris Dennis and Kay again helped to exact some revenge for the last minute heartache at Station View back in November - and in the end Mossley were comfy winners. That's four wins in six for 2011 - 10th in the league and the momentum is certainly there to push on upwards towards those play-off places. An away trip to Wakefield on Tuesday is the next test - sadly I ain't gonna make it to that one (which means they'll probably score four !!). My midweek action will more than likely be down at the Butchers Arms on Monday night to see Droylsden entertain Stalybridge Celtic ...
Later today (Sunday) - a trip to Lancaster (six days early for the Mossley "awayday" - which again I will not be able to attend - boo hoo ...) to see large boy and lady - hence the rush to get pictures up and running from game - oh yes pictures ...
