Played football last night for the first time since November when I had that awful match against Thame and lost all interest in playing again. Wayne asked me to play and it was for the over 40s cup. We’d been promised that we’d be on the main Didcot pitch, I’ve not played on there actually, but when we arrived clearly we were going to be on the training pitch – and that was shit!!
The pitch was bone dry and hard and impossible to pass the ball, we tried to play football as usual and got caught out loads of times – eventually had to play a lot longer and we got in the game in the second half. Went a goal down and then with 8 mins left I went into midfield to create some energy and was involved in creating our equaliser. Went to extra time and penalties and their keeper was useless and we won 4-2 after Graham Savin saved two. Pleasing to beat them but it was a strange atmosphere with some of the lads.
Managed to last the match and it was okay, can’t say I really enjoyed it but was pleased to make it through and not feel too bad afterwards. Started stiffening up and feel stiff this morning but it will pass, it’s my back that’s the problem!
So, need to decide if I want to play u35’s football again, I don’t think that I do.
