Captain's Report : MK City vs Oakgrove Teachers (7-2) and MK Roos (15-2)
This was MK City's first outing in the SMKA. The opponents, Oakgrove, are in their first season, so with most of City having about 2 years experience we might have been the favourites but word had reached us that they were 'athletic'. Our experience shone through and we made it through to a comfortable 7-2 victory.
Then, having badged ourselves as the first team club under the MK City umbrella, there was a lot of pressure in the game against Roos. Exuberant from the victory against Oakgrove and feeling like favourites, we muddled our way through the first half. Once upon a time 4-0 at half time would have been a brilliant result but the Captain was unhappy. So back to basics were called for, and led to a great 11-2 second half performance for a full time winning result of 15-2.
