No Saints recorded their third straight victory last night to take us to the top of the League Two table! Andy (2), Abib, Dave and Nathan were all on the score sheet in a 5-3 win over The Players.
From the morning reports I’ve heard, it was a battling team effort with No Saints taking an early lead through an Abib free-kick. The Players hit back to lead 2-1 but No Saints clawed their way back into the game, showing good spirit to make it 3-2 by half-time with two from Andy, including one straight from kick off!
In the second half, Nathan made it 4-2 before The Players’ constant moaning at the referee cost them a player into the sin-bin. Controversy followed as the referee didn’t spot another man coming on in the place of the sin-binned player and The Players scored while he was on the pitch! Incredibly the goal was allowed to stand but luckily Dave volleyed home a 5th for No Saints to restore the two-goal lead.
With Red Star Five losing out to The Closers, No Saints now sit proudly on top of the table with three games gone. With a full-time keeper hopefully joining us next week for the game with Red Star we’ll be hoping to continue the fine run of form that now takes us to five wins in the last six games over the end of last season and the start of this one!
The White Giants continue to rise!
