Alcoholic Units – 1 and on a school night 😱

I missed Saturdays match at Rushden as my friend lives not far from there and I decided to spend a fabulous 4 hours with her catching up on 6 years absence 😍 with that in mind there was no way I could miss tonight, and it was proper cold!!

Tonight didn’t bode well, 2 losses and a Leiston team on a roll…. Of course, you should never say never as Waders fan and what a match we were treated to 😍

We came out fighting and just 14 minutes in super Joe Neal fired past ex Wader Sam Donkin 😃⚽️💚 1 -0. Within 90 seconds Ronan Silva smacked into the net to make it 2-0 😃⚽️💚 Leiston came back within 20 minutes 2 – 1 😬 and just 7 minutes before the half time whistle it was 2 – 2 I won’ repeat Mr Bs words, buts lets just say he wasn’t confident of us getting 1 point let alone 3 😂 oh Tezza, yee of little faith 😂 one thing we did agree on however, was what a shame it was losing David Manu 😳 such a decent lad and great little player – not sure whats gone on there… but we don’t come up with songs for just any old player – we all thought he was a bit special 👀 good luck David on your next adventure!!

Out for the 2nd half and it was edge of the seat stuff…. 13 minutes in and super Joe Neal nailed it from a corner 3 2 😃⚽️💚!!!!! It was a thrilling, last 30 minutes as Leiston chucked everything at us; but our defence held strong for the 3 points! Wow 👀

Another great Tuesday night! We did have seats booked for the Trophy game against Wisbeach Saturday – unfortunately the day after this match BigAl developed a cough and the both of us tested positive for covid on 28th 😭 😭 so we would miss Wisbech and also Hitchin on 6th …. thanks for all the kind wishes and offers of help 💚💚 luckily it has felt like little more than a bad cold for the pair of us – But I tell you what I cannot wait to see the GreenArmy on 13th, I’ve really missed them 💚⚽️💚
