Rambo the only reason that you thought we were in control and bossed the first half was because you fell asleep whilst the rest of us had to watch a dire performance including several players having an off game, especially Kadi who's flicks and touches didn't work and just gave the opposition the ball and against better teams it could have cost us dear, just as Potters Bar caught us on the break from one of Kadi's moves and but for Kessie we could have been 1-0 down.
Thankfully we got the break through very close to half-time as Ryno's good cross (perhaps the only thing he had done in the first half) found Jay to head home, I along with several other fans behind the goal thought the linesman had missed a blatant offside (thats after he missed the push in the face on Cassie and the obvious hand ball high in the air) but thanks to the video you can clearly see a defender marking himself on the line halfway between the corner flag and goal but out of sight to us on the terrace at the time.
Second half much better not because Potters Bar pushed up looking for a goal but because we stepped up our game, played more football on the deck, kept possession and went looking for goals.
The Cassie goal has been commented on but it was not a one on one, he didn't have the ball when put through their no.6 did, but in his attempt to shield it plus pressure from Cassie he fell over and with Cassie looking for the goalie to close him down the keeper also fell over to his left and Cassie seemed to stop in disbelief before putting the ball in the net.
Goal three was justice as Kadi demonstrated the art of getting to the bye line and firing in a good hard cross/come shot and with two Darts players behind him the 5 stretched out a leg only to see the ball fly off it high into the roof of the net.
The fourth goal was worthy of winning the match with its lick passing, with the short corner to Kadi who dummied and sent Moores to the line and his first time cross found Tom waiting for the tap in.
Interesting to see lots of players all getting votes for M.O.M. which must have been based on the second half as Kessie's save was all that happened in the first.
Well done to the Darts the job was done and three points taken plus a boost to the goal diifference and a move into 3rd place, but in this important week where we must also get results away to Tilbury and Wingate to really put pressure on the top teams, we must remain consistant and take the second half performance into the whole 90 minutes of both games, then and only then will we begin to see if this team can avoid the slip ups against the teams below them in the league, something we have been guilty of in the past.
With the right results and games in hand we should hopefully be in a good position and this will set us up for the home game against Edgeware in early Novemeber.
