Editor's note: thanks to Dave for the match report.

The scoreline flattered the opposition (Come on you’ve used that one before) well technically no as this is a different reporter, still not buying it ok how about this... we was robbed, well actually that’s not entirely accurate either... the point is... it was a funny old game.... ok enough of the clichés and here begins the report.

The game started well, both teams were passing the ball around, but in fairness the opposition handled the ball marginally better in these difficult slick and windy conditions. Fast confident counter attacking moves from the opposition and accurate finishing saw their team nose ahead two-nil by the end of the first half.

During half time Birkbeck were still optimistic that there was still something in the game... and how right we were all for the wrong reasons. Calamitous clearances and disastrous distributions from the 'keeper gifted the opposition a further 3 goals and the match was more or less over before Birkbeck could get going. However at times our passing was good and lead to Walters snatching a well earned consolation goal. But by full time other than the consolation this was one match that... ahem is best forgotten. Some intensive training over Christmas is in order and perhaps the New Year will give us renewed good fortune.

Onwards!!!
