Garnett grabbed a point they scarcely deserved in windy
conditions. Mysterons started the game better than a Garnett team who
thought all they had to do to win was turn up, and Keeper Harty kept
Garnett in the game with two tremendous saves.
Garnett changed from a back 4 to a back 3 with 5 in midfield and this
seemed to stem the flow of Mysterons attacks and half way through the
half Garnett created their only chance when Jackson fired over after
good work down the right by Young.
0-0 at half time, and again as in the first half Mysterons started better
taking the lead from a corner, when the big centre midfielder for Mysterons
out jumped Pollard. Garnett then started playing and dominated for 15
minutes with Holmes being denied from short range by a tremendous save
from the Mysterons keeper.
Garnett then equalised, Bell who replaced Deeble was brought down in
the area for a penalty which Pollard despatched coolly to take his run
of goals to 8 in 4 games. Garnett then held on for a draw and at the
end of the season this result will be considered as 1 point gained rather
than 2 dropped, however attitudes must improve for next weeks game against
Interpon Bensham. Special praise goes to Smith and Jackson who were
outstanding.
Team: K.Harty, M.Smith, C.Jackson (MoM), M.Pollard 1, D.Pendlebury,
J.Almond, T.Penn, B.Holmes, K.Young, S.Collins, M.Deeble (Adam or Andy
Bell?).
