Barmy Army 8-6 H-ton Hawks

In a high tempo and well fought game, the Hawks can feel aggrieved to have not picked up any points against Barmy Army
This week saw the Hawks field five original members in the bottom of the table clash against Barmy Army.

During a goalless first 5 minutes the Hawks looked the most likely to score with a handful of chances. The defence also looked solid, closing down Barmy Army well. Unfortunately this didn't last. A long range effort found the corner of the Hawks net, out of the reach of keeper Borthwick. This would be the theme of virtually every goal by Barmy Army.

The Hawks did not sit back and allow Barmy Army to continue to score long range goal after goal. The Hawks pulled it back level on many occasions. A pattern of going two goals behind, only to bring it level minutes later was continue up until the final whistle. Unfortunately for the Hawks this was before they had chance to equalise.

The game saw Lawrence score 5 goals, with Houghton picking up the 6th.

The next game is against D.P. Trophies on 20th April.
