3-2
Funbus journey chat consisted of Nickie’s quarantine night shift, which she spent in a hazmat suit due to a Corona virus scare...turns out the lady was just mental...maybe she was related to the guy in the Portsmouth pub after last weeks match🤷♀️
We journeyed through the outback via Mummy Windsor’s (who is in fact brunette- not blonde)...as one job had forgotten the match sheet. A little later than expected, we arrived in a sunny Salisbury to be greeted by a team full of GCSE aged girls.
Salisbury started strong and scored an early goal, they seemed to be everywhere- we even counted to check they only had 11. We reset ourselves and got into the game and finally got a goal from Katy...but then AJ got angry and was shown a green card- in fairness the umpiring was atrocious (any local care homes missing 2 elderly residents?!). Wilko got a talking to by the Umpire for apologising. Salisbury took the advantage just before half time and scored again, 2-1.
We started the second half strong and Katy made it 2-2 in about 30 seconds. Not much happened for a while in the 2nd half, but Danni went in for a tackle and ended up with a hoof hand and Loe just couldn’t get her feet round 😉. In the final minutes of the game a well worked goal between Katy and AJ saw a final goal 3-2!
Teas were fairly disappointing (we don’t want healthy food after hockey, thanks) apart from for Katy who ate her body weight in Seal Bars.
Final result 3-2.
MOM= Nickie
DOD- Close call between the umpires and AJ...but AJ won for the card
Something about a green dinosaur. 🏑🍻🥳

10 - 4
Nothing that exciting happened during the game itself. I scored some, Katy scored a few more and Nickie S got a banging short corner goal. 2 free hits for Portsmouth saw one hit Danni and the other hit one of their players, who decided to lie on the floor for a while. Danni got upset because we didn't carry her off the pitch. Anyway the proper exciting s*** happened at the pub, I got dick of the day for trying to hit a child with a paper plate, missing and hitting the opposition. But then the crazy man appeared and suddenly we found ourselves in an episode of Eastenders. Sitting and staring at Portsmouth whilst they ate we got Lisa who in her best Peggy Mitchell impression shouted 'get out of my pub' and after Katy W wanted to have the last word he left. He was later found being carted into a police car half naked.
Episode 2 of Eastenders will continue next week when we play away to Salisbury...
P. S MOM was Gracie, wilko and Katy

After the initial controversy about who should be supplying a second umpire 😬 we made a strong start.
In fact we remained pretty strong for the whole 1st half playing some impressive looking hockey (a glowing report from our, at this point observing, GK Sarah W). Esme made running the wing look effortless and Loe F stepped up to the task of replacing Nickie S (who has selfishly deserted us for the weekend) and played a blinder.
They decided to start the 2nd half with 12, we scored before anyone had noticed - pretty awkward!
Then Andover turned up and had a spate of short corners. Hazel F was our usual defensive powerhouse, although still finding some time to have some nice chats with Wilko.
AJ and Katy W had a good game of sharing nicely with an impressive 4 goals a piece!
MoM: Loe for brilliant play all round.
DoD: Me (for having a nail appointment after the match - I went for a dark blue this time just FYI)
