3 T Army 15 Bramhall Rangers 3
Don’t dress it up Piggy, it was bloody awful!!
Probably the worst ever performance for Rangers this week, and that is saying a lot considering what has gone before. Even when we played our first season at Vida and lost 30-6 every game at least we played to the best of our abilities and enjoyed the football. Last night was nothing more than a joke! And not a particularly funny one!
A reasonably strong Rangers team (well considering what we have to offer) lined up. Rascle had a toe injury, I repeat toe injury, and Hedderz was absent due to the late KO. Other than that Rangers were up to full quota. Opponents this week were newly relegated 3 T Army, who we knew very little about.
Amazingly the Rangers took the lead and started brightly, scoring after only a few seconds. Pie attacking down the right, closing down the defence and jabbing home the loose ball. 3TA levelled things up after good movement dissected the defence, but again Rangers showed courage and bounced back, Shiz continuing his good form from last season, poking the ball home from a tight angle.
Then unfortunately rigamortis and muteness set it.
The Rangers collapsed. Numerous goals were conceded through lack of communication and poor passing (simple things even at this level). 3TA commented to members of our team that they had never scored so many goals, and that even they were amazed by our lack of movement. It was like human statues at times until a mad burst down the flank by Shiz often created a passing opportunity. The shot count was low for Rangers, for which Mini and Piggy should shoulder the blame as the main attacking force. But distribution from the back and middle of the park combined with lack of communication was a key factor.
Half time came and it was about 10-2, and a disconsolate Rangers team trudged off. Belly struggling to cope with the seemingly relentless attacks on his goal must feel these defeats are a personal slight on him.
Second half was a better type of poor from the Rangers. They kept the score down in the second half but managed only the one goal - Mini slotting home after good communication and link up play with Piggy. When we do it, it works, but it’s all to infrequent.
Final whistle went and the score seemed flattering on Rangers despite suffering there worst defeat in a few seasons. Not the great start to the season we had hoped for. Looking at the results and table this season’s is anyone’s to play for, with White Russians winning the game of the day over Northern Canaries.
We will be back again next week, but how many more seasons of this can the Rangers continue to suffer. Not many I would suggest.
