Precision Nottinghamshire Senior League
Premier Division
UNDERWOOD VILLA FC 1 SANDIACRE TOWN FC 2
Two goals by Sandiacre Town in mid Second Half period won this M1 Derby match for them. I saw this match some weeks ago and was going to attend, but it was vital I did as in Sandiacre;s opening match, their captain broke his leg and this Saturday they are holding a raffle to support him, so me and Hazel clustered up some raffle prizes, as well as Shawn giving u[ his box of Maltesers for the cause.
With car at the garage till 5pm, friend Daz Wragg gave us all the lift to pick up the car and we were soon on the road, or thouht so, when we got to M1 junction 29 it was closed, so we had to do a countryside detour to arrive at the ground at 6.25pm.
I went to see ref Barry Goodley who is now 70 and still runs better than some of the younger refs I see on the scene, but he has said he wont be reffering much long as he goes back out to visit family in Australia soon.
Me and Albert Greaves had a cuppa before going out to pitchside and joining local hopper Peter Chappell and Mr Ashland Rovers John Dawn.
The match kicked off at a steady pace and both sides having good chances but you had the feeling no one was going to score in the First Half and we was correct.
The Second Half we didnt have to wait long at all, as Underwood took the lead after 48 minutes, when JAKE HACKETT hit the target. Villa could have gone two up but for a fine save by the visiting keeper, that turned out to be the turning point of the game, as on 58 minutes, CHARLIE GOODWIN fired home the equalizer. Within 4 minutes Blaise DURUAKU took control of the ball and placed it pasted the home keeper to secure the points for the team from two junctions down the M1
