Worked from home today, hard to get motivated if I am honest, a very unproductive day all told. Just couldn’t get the focus on anything important which is not ideal for a freelancer!
Anyway, got through the day and did get a few things sorted and up to date, not what I should have though!
I went to vets football in the evening, we were home to Chinnor and we all know what sort of competitive game that’s going to be, and it was! We’ve struggled the last couple of games and after a decent start found ourselves 0-2 down at half time, I was tired throughout but carried on. We got back into the game immediately scoring from their kick-off and then straight after that as well, it was bizarre. Suddenly found ourselves 3-2 up and they get clawing us back when it was 4-4 with a few minutes left.
I was linesman for about 10 minutes and then Nathan got a bad injury so I was back on and then went on a run down the wing, didn’t get the cross in but made up for it chasing down a ball into the 6 yard box, pulling it back for Lee Smith to smash in the winner – a good goal and a great team spirited performance.
What was interesting is no-one actually came and celebrated (or even shook hands) with me, there were a few congratulations afterwards but that was strange to see, not sure if that confirms me as a bit of an outsider in the side, not sure. I’m not going to read anything more into it. But again it highlighted my age and lack of fitness because I was struggling throughout the match and had a decent pacey forward against me – next week versus Thame is going to be even harder.
Had a drink and something to eat and then home to watch the end of Watchmen and then bed!
I was pleased with my contribution today, just pleased to not be picking up injuries as I have done before – well I was kicked a bit but not muscle injuries I mean
