The whites showed their better half on Sat against RV....despite being on the wrong end of a 5-1 scoreline the boys can definitely hold their heads high.
With only 10 men available and 1 on them injured after 40 minutes (mad bad Michael Charles) the Whites were outstanding, holding the score to 0-0 for the first 44.5mins. In the end the extra man on the field and 3 subs gave RV an advantage that had to turn into goals. But we did manage sneak one back when Mr 21 squeezed in a shot after some great work from Grant down the right.
Special mentions for the makeshift central midfield of Alex and Michael who ran their legs off and handled the constant abuse from me very well and also to Dave who put in a great performance against the fastest over 35 year old in the world and took full advantage of the only opportunity he got to give away another penalty.
Well done boys, that's the best a 5-1 defeat can possibly feel!!

Dave done well to stay on his feet and not give away a penalty until the 80th min. After celebrating his 43rd birthday the night before with 43 glasses of wine and after a very short warm up, Dave states " I feel like a chunder". Surprised he didnt curl up and have a snooze near the goalpost. Then he backs up for more beers and wine after the game at the Ryans (did we walk the dog when we got home?). My type of footballer.
