Matchday Programme

We extended our run of games without a win to 16 in our second game under floodlights. Dylan Thomas scored the only goal of the game in the 6th minute to secure the 3 points for Baglan who ended a run of 8 games without a win in the process. The goal was set up by a determined challenge in midfield by Jonathan Davies who played the ball to Daniel Devey on the left wing. He cut inside and laid the ball across the field to Thomas whose strike from 35 yards rocketed past the upraised hand of Iwan Hooper into the net. In the next 20 minutes it was all Baglan. Legavec brought a diving save from Hooper. Thomas twice shot over the bar and Devey was clean through but placed his shot just wide of Hooper’s right post.

We started the 2nd half in calamitous fashion. Two pass backs were made from the half-way line, the second of which was without realising that Hooper had backed up way out of his goal. Iwan laid the ball forward to Josh Hinwood who found himself ambushed by two attackers. The ball was taken from him and the resultant first time strike sailed a whisker wide of the post. Our first chance on goal was in the 64th minute when Hinwood floated a measured ball down the left flank to Jac Evans who crossed to Josh Gibson whose left foot shot on goal was stopped by keeper Ryan’s foot.

The video recording died after this action and Baglan went on to win the match despite the sending off of Jordan Pike in the 72nd minute. We are now in danger of becoming isolated at the bottom of the table. We are 7 points behind 14th placed Treowen Stars but only 3 points behind bottom but one Ynyshir Albions whose own run without a win has extended to 12 games. On current form one of Ynyshir and us look set for the one relegation spot. We meet on 29 November at Ynyshir for what is going to be a massive 6-pointer.
