Today's
opposition
has
had
amixed
season,
reaching
a
final
and
picking
up
some
good
points
along
the
way
but
struggling
to
find
form.
Vics
with
change
of
peronel
today
due
to
a
number
of
core
players
being
away.
Vics
started
well
particulaly
going
forward
enjoying
some
spell
of
quality
football.
The
opening
goal
from
Elliot
Crabtree
a
casing
point,
sveral
quick
pases
a
good
cross
and
met
with
a
sweet
volley
to
put
Vics
in
front.
An
unfortunate
clearancefrom
Ad
W looped
over
Gregs
to
level
the
score
at
1-1 just
before
half
time
- .
The
second
half
Vics
started
a
little
slowley
and
Winnington
started
to
play
up
but
the
young
players
growing
in
stature
week
on
week
have
began
to
learn
and
stayed
focussed,
the
introduction
of
our
secret
weapon
Al
Marley
ensured
no
reaction
to
the
nonscence
and
a
second
goal
this
time
from
a
long
shot
from
Matty
Davies,
see
Matt
I
said shot
not
cross
put
Vics
back
in
front
third
from
Matt
Andrews
meant
the
game
was
safe ..

Comments:
- Another
good
show,
introduction
of
Dan
Ball
and
Reece
Lancaster
both
with
very
positive
performances
and
good
to
see
Mark
Dale
back
with
the
squad
afer
such
a
terrible
run
of
injury
and
ilness.
- 3.points
are
always
good
but
very
much
appreciated
to
end
the

well
done
all.

Tough
game
again
this
week
on
the
back
of
two
good
results.
Vics
tarted
well
nd
for
the
firts
time
didnt
find
themselves one
down
in
the
openning
minutes.
Vics
working
hard
had
the
edge
in
the
1st
half
but
were
unable
to
get
the
telling
shots
away,
half
time
came
with
he
score
at
0-0
-
- .
The
second
half
Vics
contnued
to
play
good
football
but
were
finally
undone
with
a
penalty,
no
arguments
I'm
afraid
with
this
one.
Late
into
the
game
whilst
stretching
at
the
back
chasing
the
goal
Vics
were
denied
3
time
in
quick
uccession
y
quality
saves,
the
gamble
failed
howver
and
a
break away
saw
Curshaws
put
the
game
beyond
the
Vics.

Match

Today's
opposition
had
been
as
indifferent
as
the
Vics
in
terms
of
results,
good
wins
against
strong
opposition
and
slip
ups
against
whats
percieved
to
be
the
weaker
sides.
Vics
played
in
a
4-5-1
to
start
and
for
the
opening
10
minutes
looked
accomplished,
Courtney
Marsh
calmly
netting
on
15
minutes.
Sandbach
Town
had
diferent
ideas
and
began
to
dominate
and
at
30
minutes
were
on
top
scoring
an
equaliser
just
before
half
time
score
at
1-1
-
- .
The
second
half
Vics
switched
formation
and
went
to
the
more
traditional
4-4-2,
this
appeared
to
settle
the
sides
and
10
minutes
in
Vics
introduced
Alley
Talor
to
the
right
hand
side
of
midfield,
10
minutes
later
he
switched
sides
with
the
introduction
of
Luke
Spedding
and
this
proved
to
be
the
turning
point.
Alley
Taylor
really
came
to
light
scoring
a
great
goal
to
put
us
2-1
up.
Not
conent
with
this
he
caused
all
sorts
of
problems
for
Sandbach
and
netted
his
second
on
85
minutes.
This
put
the
game
beyond
Sandbach
no
matter
what
tricks
they
tried
to
pull
to
give
Vis
another
3
points..
- Managers
Comments:
- Highlight
of
today
was
the
performance
of
Alley
Taylor,
for
so
long
I
have
seen
this
lad
peform
at
a
very
high
level
in
training
without
transfering
the
full
impact
to
a
game,
but
today
he
did
and
it
was
a
pleasure
to
watch
Good
performances
from
the
other
players
gave
a
good
result.
-
- At
20
games
last
season
we
had
won
10
drawn
3
and
lost
7
scored
51
and
conced
32.
At
20
games
this
season
we
have
won
9,
drawn
4
and
lost
7
scored
46
and
conceded
31
so
a
very
similar
tally
although
it
doesnt
feel
that
way.
The
differnce
this
year
is
we
have
taken
points
out
of
the
top
sides
but
have
left
10
points
on
the
table
from
teams
currently
in
the
bottom
3.
These
point
would
have
us
in
a
very
healthy
league
positiion
with
potential
of
trophies,
its
a
funny
old
game

Today's
game
was
against
High
Flying
Curshaws,
reighning
league
champions
and
a
team
that
had
alredy
dumped
us
out
of
the
district
shield
at
the
semi
final
stages.
Pitch
and
conditions
were
as
good
as
you
get
at
Bunbury
and
a
strong
squad
available
all
in
all
leant
itself for
a
good
game.
A
very
composed
Curshaws
side
side
very
deliberately
set
out
there
stall
but
the
youthful
Vics
side
were
looking
to
make
a
game
of
it
today
with
one
or
two
determined
to
show
why
they
were
selected. The
usual
midfield
dominance
was
matched
by
the
young
guns
and
a
fairley
even
first
half
in
terms
of
possesion
and
opportunities
resulted
with
Curshaws
having
slightly
more
of
the
ball
and
Vics
just
having
the
edge
with
opportunity.
Half
time
0-0
-
- .
The
second
half
was
also
evenly
matched
until
a
long
kick
from
Paul
Gregory
was
miss
judged
by
the
Curshaws
center
back,
catching
in
on
the
top
of
his
head
and
looping
it
over
his
own
kepper
from
25
yards.
In
truth
Vics
probably
had
the
edge
at
this
stage
but
had
not
really
developed
scoring
opportunities
of
note.
This
opened
the
game
up
a
little
and
Vics
were
denied
a
Matt
Andrews
effort
by
the
post.
At
87
minutes
the
game
was
sealed
when
Courney
Marsh
netted
a
well
delivered
strike
to
make
it
2-0.
Despite
the
experience
an
gaul
of
a
strong
Curshaws
side
they
were
not
abale
to
break
Vics
today
and
teh
score
remained
at
2-0
- Managers
Comments:
- When
a
game
is
played
in
the
manner
of
today
its
a
great
feeling
as
a
manger,
your
slection
for
the
day
was
right,
the
football
and
determination
shown
is
very
rewarding
and
the
sense
of
pride
is
great.
A
victory
like
this
is
more
than
just
a
win
and
is
what
makes
football
great.
This
season
we
have
had
some
highs
and
lows,
Curshaws
and
MMU
victories
and
Barnton
Away,
under
achievemnet
against
Malpas
and
Cuddington
each
with
almost
identical
sides
so
tough
to
understand.
We
need
to
take
all
the
good
components
into
our
last
few
games
and
finish
on
a
high.

Today's
game
was
on
a
very
hard
bobbly
pitch
and
weather
was
warm.
A
fairly
even
game
but
a
much
better
show
than
in
the
last
few
weeks
for
the
boys
in
blue
and
black,
Vics
having
the
better
time.
The
Link
up
play
between
Tom
Wilson
and
Dan
wood
was
excellent
and
this
combination
created
a
number
of
chances
but
the
opener
actually
came
from
the
opposite
side
when
Elliot
Crabtree
chased
down
a
ball
and
capatilised
on
a
keeper
error
and
finished
from
a
tight
angle.
The
second
half
the
game
looked
to
be
going
to
plan
when
a
harsh
penalty
decison
was
given
and
the
score
levelled.
Deep
into
the
game
a
collision
between
2
Vics
players
saw
the
ball
run
favourably
for
Cuddington
and
despite
the
player
still
having
plenty
to
do
he
finished
well.

of

swallow
this
one,
a

in

chances
but
didn't
seize
the

Particulaly
tough
on
the
defenders
who
in
fairness
did
little
wrong
except
concede
twice
but
as
always
there
was
some
learning
to
take

try
to
include

Todays
game
always
difficult
for
the
Vics,
Bentley
are
not
blessed
with
youth
but
do
have
some
older
quality
players
and
Vics
struggle
to
come
to
terms
with
this.
An
even
game
through
out
the
first
half
Vics
perhaps
not
stretching
the
old
legs
as
much
as
we
should
and
the
odd
touch
of
laziness
in
working
back
for
just
in
case
scenarios
but
overall
a
decent
stab
at
the
game.
The
second
half
was
much
of
the
same,
the
street
wise
centre
forward
more
than
a
challenge
for
Nick
Ball
and
the
centre
half
just
as
composed
snuffing
out
our
forward
play.
Bentley
did
sieze
on
one
of
very
few
mistakes
and
thumped
the
ball
in
to
take
the
lead.
Very
few
real

came
the

one

dropping

performance
today
and
certainly
one
that
wasnt
to
disapointing.
There
were
some
real
learning
opportunities
today
the
centre
forward
being
one
of
them.
Our
only
fault
today
was
the
last
ball
was
a
little
wayward
and
as
a
result
we
failed
to
create
enough
shooting
or
goal
scoring
opportunities

minutes

opportunuties
2
being

quality

tackles
from

Vics
on

of

Today's
opposition
were
top
of
the
league
with
100%
record.
It
was
very
evident
we
needed
to
be
somewhat
sharper
than
last
week
to
compete
in
this
one.
Within
the
opening
5
minutes
the
chages
made
and
input
from
players
selected showed
we
meant
business.
The
work
rate
was
top
class
giving
a
gkass
MMU
side
little
time
to
play,
we
tracked
well
battled
hard
and
then
played
football
on
top
if
this.
With
about
15
minutes
gone
a
strong
challenge
and
good
ball
from
Adam
Williams
looked
to
have
released
Tom
Kershaw
who
was
brought
down
bt
the
keeper
leaving
the
ref
no
choice
but
to
issue
a
red
card.
MMU
stayed
controlled
and
despite
having
10
players
were
just
as
committed
but
the
resiliant
Vics
stuck
to
the
game
plan
and
kept
creating
mistakes
to
win
balls
and
then
played
to
create. Matt
Dean
being
denied
a
wonder
goal
by
the
bar. It
was
a
great
ball
to
Sam
Lloyd
who
held
off
his
man
to
calmly
play
the
ball
past
the
advacing
keeper
tnto
the
net
to
open
the
scoring.

Second
half
was
just
as
frought
MMU
being
denied
by
the
bar,
goal
line
clearnce
from
Dan
Wood
and
a
string
of
good
saves
from
Gregs.
Vics
stood
strong
and
absorbed
the
endless
onslought
untill
85
minutes
when
Tom
Kershaws
got
free
to
pkay
a
ball
into
the
feet
of
Tom
Wilson
to
increase
the
lead
to

At

minutes
MMU
got
some

for
there
continued

and
were
awrded
a

This
was dispatched
to
pull

Managers
Comments: What
a
differnce
a
week
makes,
from
desperation
to
elation.
Todays
perfomance
was
top
class,
from
no
real
performer
to
11
likely
for
MOM.
Gregs
in
finest
form
of
the
year,
Ads,
Nick
and
Jack
rock
solid,
Dan
Woods
best
performance
to
date,
Soulman
revitalsied
in
this
new
position
no
manager
could
ask
for
more,
Sam
great
finish
and
some
neat
play,
Andy
R
produced
a
real
shift
and
tremendous
work
from
the
front
2
didnt
give
MMU
the
chance
to
build
from
the
back.
All
in
all
a
great

we
need

remember
this
feeling

Match
Sponsor,
- Today's
opposition
were
at
the
opposite
end
of
the
table
to
Curshaws
but
had
begun
to
pick
up
points.
Our
battling
performace
of
recent
weeks
was
missing
today
and
we
participated
in
what
can
only
be
described
as
a
por
game.
There
was
no
fluidty
and
more
free
kicks
and
yellow
cards
than
should
be
seen
in
any
game.
Malpas
took
the
lead
but
were
pegged
back
by
a
Matt
Andrews
goal.
