Amidst the freezing fog at The Nest The Ravens were knocked out of the last cup competition of the season and condemned to a second half of the season consisting of 22 virtual friendlies. Bizarrely McIntyre left out five first teamers including Harwood, who was replaced by the shaky looking Hunt in goal. Bromley started brightly, but as the fog descended Casuals were awarded a penalty by the Linesman for no apparent reason! Shergold tucked it away and the scoring was done. Bromley went close a few times in either half as the fog came and went, but by the time it descended again to cut the vision down to 20yards for the last 10mins even that was too late to save us. To cap an awful evening Bartley went off with a nasty looking injury on 75mins and we were never going to score after that. We were left pondering the strange team selection and hoping Bartley would be fit for Saturday.
Quote for the game, ‘Please don’t kill my dream.’
