1st TEAM MANAGER DAVE DANIEL ASSISTANT MANAGER NEIL SHERLOCK PHYSIO 2nd TEAM MANAGER SAM BEATTIE

Good afternoon everybody and a warm welcome to the players, officials and supporters of Uckfield GOALS Town, another unknown team to us at Sidlesham. A run of only one defeat (1-0 to table toppers JAMES COATES (CORTEZ) 4 ) in their last 7 league outings has put them MOMs in a strong 4th position, which means we can expect another tough game at the memorial ground today. I would also like to welcome our referee MARK CARRINGTON (CAZ) 2 for today Andrew Carter. I’d also like to officially announce club Secre- APPERANCES tary Steve Carson as my assistant for the rest of the season. Another run of poor results has left us out of all cup competitions and JAMES LEAHY (LEAHY) 12 joint bottom of the league. There’s no hiding now we are in a relegation ALEX BROCKWAY (BROCKERS) 12 battle. It doesn’t matter how well we think we’ve played and how good ASSISTS we are individually it is all about results now. It’s time this group of play- ers stood up and showed the people who have put their faith in them, PERRY NORTHEAST (PEZ) 2 how good they really are. The attacking work myself and Neil have put in DAN LORD (LORDY) 2 on the training ground seems to be paying off with 5 goals in 3 games and plenty more chances. Unfortunately we seem to have forgotten the art FANTASY POINTS of defending all over the pitch, having conceded 11 in our last 3 games, CORTEZ 27 where as it had taken 7 games to concede double figures previously. Back to the positives, if we play like the second half last week for the FANTASY POINTS PER rest of the season we will not lose many more games. The front pairing GAME of Johno and Cortez looked sharp and scored 3 between them and also set one up for each other. 17 year old Ollie Longlands was impressive on JAMIE CLAYTON (err JAMIE) 5.5 his debut and the Sailsburys looked good again as full-backs, even Chair- man Les had some praise for the 2nd half performance, so it can’t be all bad. Keep believing and the confidence will return and with it the results we need, starting today.

Sidlesham Reserves 3 Bosham 5

After two maulings in the last two weeks, the reserves were looking to bounce back with a strong showing from a strong team. However, after starting well and dominating the opening exchanges 3 goals ‘gifted’ in 5 minutes left a mountain to climb. Sids won a penalty just before half time after some good work from Dec Hill down the right, he Left: Perry Northeast, Lee Baldwin was downed with a late tackle from the Bosham centre back. Skipper Smith stepped up and Dan Cobby hold firm in the but a poor penalty was well saved by the keeper. Sids wall!!!! HT 0-3

The second half started as the first with Sids on top – a central defensive pairing of Gas- kin and Duffy looked solid as did the central midfield of the Baldwins. Sids pulled one back when Dave Turner, having chased a ball into the corner, squared to Lee Baldwin who helped it on to Paul Smith who after taking on the last defender hit a shot that, de- Right: Manager Dave Daniels spite the keeper getting two hands to it, found the net. deciding if he’s going to watch X-Factor or Strictly Come Unfortunately, the inability to clear the ball proved to be Sidleshams undoing again and Dancing!! we duly lost another goal. Having got themselves back into the game again, after a great strike from Cochrane from 25 yards beat the Bosham keeper, Sids lost another goal to keep the cushion at the three soft first half goals. Smith finished the scoring off with a smart finish after Cochranes shot came back off the bar and despite the keeper making a brilliant save from the initial header he could do nothing with the rebound.

Sids continued to press with numerous corners and even another penalty shout but it was Dave Turner who was denied a fine headed goal with the Bosham keeper again foiling with another fine save.
