January Update

-- We play in the FA Cup on the 2nd, then league matches on the 6th, 9th, 16th, 23rd, and 30th. Should we win our FA Cup match there will be a 4th round matchup at some point in January as well.

-- Joe O'Sullivan was named 2nd in the player of the month voting for December, behind Sam Smith of Rushden who scored 10 goals in 6 matches.

-- Rushden went 6-0-0 in leauge play in December and that earned their manager the monthly award. i came in second. I should have won. We had 2 makeup games from November and we went 7-1-0 despite playing constantly on 2-4 days rest.

-- The board is delighted with my performance. Our league 2 dominance is of course the highlight and the loss of Giuseppe Sole is still the downside. We actually made money last month thanks to all the extra games and the fact that our attendance is up.

-- Though we're expected to lose in this round of the FA Cup we're expected to have a near sellout with over 6000 tickets sold. Capacity is 6500.

January 2nd, 2016

FA Cup 3rd Round

Bournemouth(23rd, Coca Cola Championship) Woking (1st, League 2)

This will probably get ugly, even though we're first and they're looking at relegation, we're stil 2 leagues apart. They're 1:2 favorites today, we're 9:2 to win and 13:5 to pull off a draw.

GK: Lynch
D: Williams/V Taylor/Smith/Alcock
MC: Upson/Middleton
AM: Colin/N'Diaye
FC: Harsanyi/Constantino

We're putting the best team we possibly can out there today. We'll attack, screw it, we're at home and we try to outscore people!

2': Colin down the left side, he lays a ball back for Upson who shoots from 20+ yards out, its a pretty solid shot, the keeper has to make a last second save and turns it behind. We get 2 corners before they clear.

6': Bournemouth midfielder Donnelly with a yellow going up for a header in midfield.

9': Midfielder Donnely receives a pass about 20 yards out and fires a shot at Lynch, it hits the left post, close.

13': Another strong strike for Bournemouth but from range.. this one came from the right side and hits the left post.

20': Throwin for Bournemouth deep in our defensive end. They throw it into the penalty area and Vince Taylor is called for a foul. They convert the penalty... 0-1

22': Colin makes a nice run down the left side, he has to fight to keep the ball twice from tackle attempts, he crosses it to the near side of the 6 yard box, Harsanyi is the first one there and directs the ball goalward with a header, it's by the keeper and we've evened the score!! 1-1

35': Ed Upson is hurt and he has to come out immediately. O'Sullivan is in.

41': O'Sullivan is hurt a bit on a tackle... he should be ok though I think.

46': We have a long stretch of possession but struggle to get it into the area, finally O'Sullivan finds N'Diaye, he could try to shoot in the crowded penalty box but insted lays a ball foward, Colin gets to it first and he has basically a point blank shot... its our first clear cut chance, and he just blasts it wide from about 8 yards out. We should have the lead now.

HALF: These guys are clearly better but we'll keep pushing and see what we can do. They shoot 10 times, though 4 are long shots. We shot 4 times only. Possession is even, we're actually tackling better, everything else is pretty much even.

50': Vince Taylor with the 3rd foul i've seen him commit in highlights, this time he gets a yellow.

51': They work the ball foward after their free kick, there's a through ball on the right side to striker Pellicori, and he puts it in pretty easily. 1-2

62': Another long buildup for us, we're looking for an opening, finally Harsanyi pokes a little ball foward that constantion runs on to, he's inside the 6 yard box and the keeper seems to be caught totally off guard... and Constantino pokes the ball just inches wide... that was our second clear cut chance and we missed it as well.

75': Ogogo in for N'Diaye at AMR.

78': We have a throwin in their end, Alcock takes it and puts in a nice cross, Colin gets his head to it, wow he's wide open here, its actually our 3rd clear cut chance... and the header is right at the keeper, uggggggh!!!

90': Goal kick for Bournemouth, Taylor is there and controls the ball, he passes it foward, constnatino is there, a defender is draped all over him, he receives the pass about 20 yards out, he controls it and shrugs off a tackle, getting into the penalty area, he shoots... it beats the keeper!!!!! A dramatic last minute goal. 2-2

90': 4 minutes of extra time.

94': Ogogo is called for a foul about 20 yards out... they shoot on the free kick and it sails a few feet wide.

That'll do it! We remain alive.

Woking 2 : 2 Bournemouth

One of their goal scorers is man of the match. We only allowed 4 second half shots and all were off target. We pushed really hard and generated a number of good looks, we really could claim that we should ahve won this one with a couple very easy looks that we choked on.

Goals: Harsanyi (6.9), Constantino (6.9)
Assists: V Taylor (6.8), Colin (7.3)

The entire team was between 6.7 and 6.9 except for Colin.

-- Ed Upson is going to miss 5-8 days with an injury he picked up in today's match.

-- 6036 fans came to watch our match today, generating $210,000 in revenue for the team. This is a single game record for us and is actually higher than some full months or gate receipts for us.

-- I was hoping the Replay vs Bournemouth would postpone one of our league matches... nope, it's going to be on the 13th, during the middle of the week we were going to have off.
