A bizarre game which CSHC 4ths started with only 10 players due to car puncture and an early morning shopping trip. Special mention for John Parker who went in goal as an emergency instead of James Raikes. South more than held their own despite one man short and only went 1:0 down due to some poor marking and from a rather tame shot. South played the 1st 30 minutes with 10 men and between Rob Barton and Theo Haines, the Rutland defence had plenty to do. South continue to hold their own for the remainder of the half and actually had the better chances through Rob Barton and Theo Haines.

The second half started with South having had their full complement of players and actually dominated for 10 minutes of the 2nd half and had 3 chances to score. South went 2:0 behind through a rather unlucky short corner. This unfortunately lead to a rather embarrassing 7:0 through more goals from short corners and poor defending.

Post match analysis from the team to the question "What went wrong in the 2nd half?"

• People were constantly switching positions
• Lack of discipline - 2 to 3 people tackling the same player
• Lack of fitness

The 4th team will need to revert to doing the basics well. This is a match we felt at half time we could win, so this is not bad luck, but a thoroughly poor 2nd half performance.
