SUFC 2019/20 Game 6
A wonderful Micropub in Daventry for the pre-pre-season. You've got the name slightly wrong though fella. Early Doors. Yet, when the Carrier Bag Firm turned up about twenty to twelve. You weren't quite ready to serve them. Where we come from - that's A Bit Late Doors. Luckily for all concerned, a nice beer board & some beer in great condition, built a lot of trust. All six beers were on Gravity out of a sort of purpose built chilled set of cubby holes.
Advice was offered. Tasters were proffered. Beer Bollocks questions were gently answered. The best of the bunch was bright as a button. Spot on.
Phipps NBC, India Pale Ale at 4.3%. Just what you'd hope for in an English style IPA at that abv. A small amount of nutty malt. Which gave way to tongue tingling bitterness.
Unremarkable game. Competent performance. Building I feel. Zak Brunt & Harry Boyes were unused subs. Regan Slater got three minutes. I mean, I want to see him play. But, why bother for three minutes. I felt McGoldrick looked a little sharper. Coming very deep & trying to spin his defender. But, also turning the defenders around to face their own goal when he had the chance. Whoever takes the ball off the keeper and/or centre backs in these games will look good. As they'll have the ball a lot, with a bit more time on the ball. That's Norwood & Lundstram.
I wasn't close enough to the action to give a judgement on the penalties. But, obvs scoring both pens puts Captain Until Sharp Norwood in the Man Of Match frame.
