4ths are messed about by the weather as the 3rds and 2nds continue great cup form

Gaskell is Norwich Union’s Chief Tormentor

By David Yeomans

The 2’s warmed up nicely for their forthcoming winner-takes-all clash with the arrogant Coventry mugs with a comprehensive 4 – 0 win over Norwich Union at Colney.

Gaskell opened the scoring with a neat header after about 15 minutes of UEA pressure following a nice cross from Sammy G. Soon after he added a second in almost identical fashion except the cross this time came from the opposite full-back the fit again colossus Grove. UEA failed to add to this scoreline before half time despite Yeomans hitting the bar and Snoop and Gunny coming close. Their keeper pulled off an awesome save to deny Jonny Richardson a trademark twenty yard piledriver as the half drew to a close.

The second half was a continuation of the first as UEA continued their relentless pressure. It was from a Richardson corner that the third was scored a tame header from Liam Martin somehow bounced over the keeper and into the net. Gaskell completed his hat trick when a Liam Martin header put him through and the keeper stacked it on his arse leaving a stumbling Gask to tap home. It was harsh on the keeper who had made a number of good saves throughout the game but no more than UEA deserved.

Gaskell’s “shat-trick” earned him the MOM award but a special shout must go to Gunny who still found time to start on an Ingoldsthorpe player as we watched extra time in the 3rds cup tie. Gunny by name Gunny by nature.

Ingoldisthorprpe cant handle extra time as 3rds progress

No proper match report as Gav didnt text me back, but from what i gathered Johnny Tucker got the first, a very good goal and Pete Bellamy scored the winner with his head from a sweet Dave Burnham corner in the first minute of extra time. All "Gunn's" went blazing as their captain couldn't handle the bant, chants of "Just because your losing" were on the cards, but probably wouldn't have gone down well as the geezer looked like a filthy racist pikey.

Well done lads and good luck in the Semi-Final!!!!

Im not gonna do the league till the end of next weekend as there is a lot of games in succession, look forward to seeing all the 3rds and 4ths on Wednesday after training to cheer on the 1's against Loughborough and the 2's chance of taking over their league by one point with one game to go, if they can beat top of the league Coventry 2's. Bring friends, girlfriends, even your dogs, its a fucking massive day. OH UEA!!!!

Love you all

Gask
