BORO 8 BORROWASH 0. "RYAN BLOTT" HAT TRICK.

Daughter Dayle starts the day right in the currie & chip buttie queue.

A FREEZING COLD DAY WITH STRONG WINDS DID NOT DETER SCARBOROUGH ATHLETIC FROM BREAKING THE HIGHEST SCORE RECORD SO FAR THIS SEASON IN THE NCEL DIVISION ONE

OPPONENTS BORROWASH WERE COMPLETELY OUTPLAYED BY A CONFIDENT LOOKING SCARBOROUGH ATHLETIC ELEVEN WHO WERE EVENTUAL 8-0 WINNERS.

Currie, chips and now hot chocolate.

'BORO' KICKED OFF PLAYING AGAINST THE WIND, BUT EVEN SO IT TOOK THEM ONLY 9 MINUTES TO OPEN THE SCORING, IT WAS LEADING SCORER SCOTT PHILLIPS WHO GOT THE ALL IMPORTANT FIRST GOAL, THE CONDITIONS WERE TERRIBLE FOR TRYING TO PLAY GOOD FOOTBALL BUT 'BORO' TRIED TO PLAY THEIR USUAL FLUENT PASSING GAME AND THEY DID PROVIDE GOOD ENTERTAINMENT IN SPITE OF THE CONDITIONS.

Scott Phillips leads another 'Boro' attack.

MARK GRIFFIN ADDED BORO'S SECOND GOAL IN THE 32nd MINUTE AND LIAM WIDDOWSON SCORED THE THIRD GOAL JUST 5 MINUTES BEFORE THE BREAK.

SO,HALF TIME ARRIVED WITH 'BORO' LEAVING THE FIELD WITH A CREDITABLE 3-0 LEAD, THEY TOTALLY DOMINATED THE FIRST HALF AND MUST HAVE FELT THAT THE GOALS WOULD FLOW IN THE SECOND HALF WITH THE STRONG WIND BEHIND THEM, ESPECIALLY WITH SO MANY PLAYERS ABLE TO USE THE CONDITIONS TO THEIR ADVANTAGE, SOMETHING THAT THE BORROWASH PLAYERS FAILED TO DO DURING THE FIRST 45 MINUTES.

A nice hot flask of Oxo makes a cold day a little warmer.

IT WAS NOT LONG AFTER THE 2nd HALF KICK OFF BEFORE THE 3-0 ADVANTAGE BECAME 4-0 AS 'BORO'S' GARY HEPPLES GOT HIS FIRST STRIKE OF THE GAME IN THE 65th MINUTE. CRAIG HOGG WHO HAD COME ON FROM THE SUBSTITUTES BENCH MADE IT 5-0 JUST 5 MINUTES LATER. RYAN BLOTT SCORED FROM THE PENALTY SPOT, AFTER HE HIMSELF HAD BEEN FOULED, IT WAS A NICE TOUCH WHEN BLOTT AND PHILLIPS SPOKE BEFORE THE PENALTY WAS TAKEN, AND USUAL SPOT KICKER PHILLIPS LET BLOTT TAKE THE KICK.

'BORO' WERE SUPERB, THEY LOOKED CAPABLE OF SCORING WITH ALMOST EVERY ATTACK, AND IT REALLY WAS NO SURPRISE THAT WHEN THE FINAL WHISTLE BLEW THE 'BORO' HAD SCORED 8 GOALS, RYAN BLOTT ADDED THE FINAL 2 GOALS OF THE GAME.

Mark Griffin who had an excellent game for the 'Boro'

THE ONLY SOUR NOTE TODAY WAS THE RED CARD WHICH PHILLIPS RECEIVED FOR A MISTIMED 2 FOOTED TACKLE ON A BORROWASH FORWARD, THERE WAS NO MALICE IN THE CHALLENGE, IT WAS PURELY MISTIMED BUT IT WAS A SENDING OFF OFFENCE AND THE REFEREE HAD NO CHOICE IN SENDING PHILLIPS OFF.( I THOUGHT THE REFEREE WAS EXCELLENT TODAY, HIS DECISIONS WERE GOOD, HE WAS NOT INTIMIDATED BY ANYONE AND HIS COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE PLAYERS WAS FIRST CLASS-AND I LOOK FORWARD TO Mr R TARBATT OFFICIATING BORO GAMES IN THE FUTURE)

Jubilant Boro players and Officials leave the pitch.

NEXT WEEKS VISITORS 'TEVERSAL' WILL NOT RELISH THEIR TRIP TO QUEENSGATE, AS NONE OF THE OTHER TEAMS WILL EITHER, BORO ON THEIR DAY ARE MAGNIFICENT AND CAPABLE OF BEATING ANYONE.

And jubilent Boro fans head for home. "Up the Boro"
