Saturday 12th January 2007 UniBond League Div One South
1st game of the new year, and a cracker of a game it was... good choice by Mr. Goodman. Mind you my choice, Calverton MW v Kinsley Boys sounded alright as well, with the home team beating top of the league Kinsley 3-0.
Anyway, we had an event free journey to Stoke Lane, arriving 15 minutes before the kick off time.
We had a quick chat to Carlton player Dean Gent's dad. I've known Dean a long time ( since our Under 9 days with Hucknall Sports and Ruddington colts some 14 years ago). Dean has been a regular at Carlton for the past six seasons, but had to settle for a place on the bench for this game.
The game - it sort of went like this :-
2 minutes - free-kick to Warrington 25 yds out, the ball was fired towards the far post by Williams - no-one connected and the ball went in off the post 0-1.

28 minutes - Carlton's Bignall collects in box and fires home with the outside of his right foot 1-2.

H-T
56 minutes - Warrington's Spearritt headed home from a free-kick 3-3.
63 minutes - Warrington's 17 year old sub Taylor collected a superb 50 yard cross-field ball before firing home past the Carlton keeper 3-4.
80 minutes - Warrington's Rendell saw his effort deflected past the Carlton keeper 3-5.
90 minutes - Warrington's Brown ran through on goal and fired past the Carlton keeper 3-6.
The Warrington fans were hoarse -- (that lot will never be speechless) and were left pondering about the last time their team netted 6 away....they seemed to remember a 9-0 some years ago!
Anyway, back to the car - the heater on full --- did I mention -- IT WAS BLOODY FREEZING again!
Tuesday -- looks like only one game on at the moment -- Rainworth v Glapwell in the NCEL League Cup.
