... some pics from the last 48 hours ...
... will add a few words later today - it's way past my bed time ...
SUNDAY MORNING UPDATE - two pretty good games in two days ...
It may have been a youthful Man City side but Celtic came back very well from 2-0 down at half-time - it probably helped when they actually put a couple of strikers on at half-time !! I guess the City squad train full-time as well - both sides stuck at it for the full 90. The first Celtic goal was a rather harsh penalty (in my humble ...) and the winner was a bit of a "pinball jobbie" - but they all count. Talking to some of the Celtic fans during and after the game, they thought it was a much improved team performance from the 0-3 reverse against Hyde six days earlier.
On Saturday Hyde FC put out a strong XI in the first half - but Mossley fought well after losing a bad goal ... again the equaliser was a touch fortuitous (a misjudged bounce - thank you very much !), but in the second 45 Mossley created a number of good chances and the Hyde penalty was a touch chaotic at times - but a promising performance from the home side nevertheless. As the friendlies continue, no doubt the football will improve with players getting to know each other (and the fans getting to know the players !) - and others returning from holidays etc. And hopefully the weather might improve as well ...
Right - off to the shop for a "Non League Paper" - and some spuds - tonight ... a roast beef dinner !!
