Rusthall are currently 2 leagues higher than us but you could not of told by the watching the game.
We had a squad of 15, after some late drop outs, but where the previous 2 games, which we had won, no one had had a poor performance, or looked out of their depth, I fully expected some weaknesses to be exposed against much higher quality opposition. However as I sit here writing this report, I seem to have even more selection problems, as the players that played, put in an fantastic display, of tenacity, desire and commitment, to go alongside their undoubted talent.
To name drop a few, Browny was excellent at centre half, Dan Hesmer learned quickly the holding midfield role, Joe Passey gained valuable fitness with another solid performance, Ben Brooker and Chris Mearing worked well up front and created good chances, as did Timmy and James Philpott. Special mention to Dan McGuire who went in goal after Liam got injured.
In general a very encouraging display. Well Done!
