MAGNIFICENT PERFORMANCE IN FINAL FRIENDLY OF THE PRE SEASON

ALL THE STAY-AT-HOME BORO FANS TONIGHT MISSED A FOOTBALLING TREAT.
IT WAS A COLD, DAMP MISERABLE EVENING SO FAR AS THE WEATHER WAS CONCERNED BUT THE FOOTBALL SERVED UP BY SCARBOROUGH ATHLETIC WAS TERRIFIC, EVERY PLAYER IN THE TEAM GAVE 100% AND BRODSWORTH FROM THE NCEL PREMIER LEAGUE WERE COMPLETELY OUTPLAYED AND OUTCLASSED BY THE BOYS IN RED.
BORO PLAYED SOME MAGNIFICENT FOOTBALL AND WERE A JOY TO WATCH, EXCELLENT PASSING, STRONG DEFENDING WHEN THEY HAD TO AND CHANCE AFTER CHANCE CREATED BY THE TEAM, THE BRODSWORTH GOAL LED A CHARMED LIFE AS HALF TIME ARRIVED WITH THE SCORELINE STILL AT 0-0, SO MANY NEAR MISSES AND A PERFECTLY GOOD "BORO" GOAL DISALLOWED FOR OFFSIDE, WHICH IT CLEARLY WAS NOT, BUT THE SECOND HALF WAS ONLY IN IT'S 3rd MINUTE WHEN RYAN BLOTT PUT US AHEAD FROM THE PENALTY SPOT AND NOT MUCH TIME PASSED THEN BEFORE WE WENT 2-0 UP WITH A BEAUTIFULLY WORKED GOAL FROM ELLIS, A GREAT HEADER PERFECTLY PLACED OUT OF THE BRODSWORTH 'KEEPERS REACH, BORO CONTINUED TO PRESS AND DOMINATE THE GAME, BUT IN THE END HAD TO SETTLE FOR THE 2-0 SCORELINE, A GREAT RESULT, BUT IT COULD SO EASILY HAVE BEEN A MUCH BIGGER WINNING MARGIN. THE ONLY NEGATIVE ON THIS GREAT NIGHT WAS THE ABUSIVE BEHAVIOUR OF THE BRODSWORTH SECRETERY WHO HAD TO BE EJECTED FROM THE GROUND AFTER THE REFEREE QUITE RIGHTLY DECIDED THAT ENOUGH WAS ENOUGH, HIS CONSTANT SWEARING AND ABUSE HAD BEEN TOLERATED LONG ENOUGH AND THE REFEREE HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO HAVE HIM ESCORTED OUT OF THE GROUND. PLAY WAS HELD UP FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES AS THE REFEREE HAD TO DEAL WITH THE UNPLEASENT SITUATION, THE IDIOT WAS EVENTUALLY LED OUT BY A STEWARD.
IF THERE WERE ANY ASKERN OFFICIALS PRESENT TONIGHT ON A SPYING MISSION BEFORE SATURDAYS LEAGUE OPENER AGAINST BORO
THEY WILL NOT BE LOOKING FORWARD TO THEIR VISIT ON SATURDAY WHEN THE SEASON PROPER GETS UNDERWAY, THE SCARBOROUGH ATHLETIC SIDE TONIGHT WERE BRILLIANT AND THEY WILL NO DOUBT ALL BE FIRED UP AND JUST WAITING FOR THE VISIT OF ASKERN VILLA ON SATURDAY.
I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE GAME, LET'S HOPE FOR A REALLY BIG CROWD, THIS IS GOING TO BE SUCH AN IMPORTANT SEASON FOR SCARBOROUGH ATHLETIC.
