Our final 7 a side match of the summer was against 1664 who were second in the table. It was the last opportunity to trial new players before the start of the season so regulars Alan Barnard, Terry Moore, Danny Smith and Lee King were joined by goalkeeper Ozel Ozerman and four new players, Steve Sivathasan, Ricky Francis, Kyle Osman and Rory Richards. Not surprisingly we struggled to find any cohesion early in the game and went behind after four minutes. Midway through the first half we conceded three more goals in a four minute spell and another just before half time saw us trailing 5-0. Fortunately, we were positive at half time and Rory Richards scored a debut goal just 45 seconds into the second half which helped to keep our spirits up. The game was fairly even in the second half and we created plenty of chances before Rory scored again with five minutes to go. Strangely a 5-2 defeat was good for team spirit as we showed character in the second half and all the new players did well with Rory in particular looking to be a good signing.
