BHFC 0- 4 *********

First game of the season against a solid Cheshunt fc outfit with a much depleted squad due to four players being on holiday started with a 4-0 loss, two early goals conceded and I think that rattled us a bit. We started with Nathan W & Hayden P in defence who will be partnered together this year a midfield of Bailey A Nathan B and Tobi B with Archie up top we played a nice passing game at times in  the middle of the pitch but failed to test there keeper. We looked a bit stronger when Ricky F entered the fray but we went in at half time three nil down and I could not really see a way back into the game. 


The second half was a bit better.  I know that the kids do not like it but we really need a crash course on defending.  Lots of times we were caught ball watching but then again I have seen  players earning £30k a week doing the same !!


The two defensive partnerships were not helped greatly by the midfield not tracking back.  Lots for me to work on.  We could take the easy route and play the best two defenders at the back all year but I still maintain we need to rotate positions. 


Player of the match today without question was Coby M.  I think the score would have been greater but for the big man, bless him, was only worried about blood on his new yellow goalie shirt from a cut lip caused by a thundering strike from their number 10.


Another new challenge Parsloes Athletic v BHFC Black next Saturday 11am kick off.  I will email more details later in the week.
