14s go out of League Cup

Today the 14's lost 4-2 to Failsworth Dynamos. It was always going to be a tough game, and this was made tougher when we received a phonecall on Thursday saying the game was to be played at Wright Robinson on the dreaded astroturf (we still don't know why the decision to switch the game to astro was agreed by the League as we could have played on Blocksages), oh and the game was to kick off at 10:15?. Anyway we turned up on time, however, the ref did not appear until gone 10:30, who then made some strange decisions for both teams. The game started well for the Celts who soon went 1-0 up with a strike from Bezy. Failsworth then applied quite a bit of pressure and pulled one back from a corner. Half time 1-1. Onto the second half with Failsworth looking to hoof the ball forward for their speedy strikers to chase, and they soon found themselves 4-1 up, assisted by some rather dubious 'not offside decisions'. The Celts then rallied and had most of the possession, Bezy was brought down in the box and George gratefully scored from the resulting penalty 4-2. The Celts then pushed on but could not score anymore goals. Full time 4-2 to Failsworth. Strange game all round today, with the game being switched to Astro, the ref turning up late and Failsworth only having one match ball.

Scorers: Bezy, George
