U12 Senior League Cup - Grp 3: Herons 6-0 Rickmansworth Rebels
Another game and another comfortable win for the boys. The last time we met this opposition we only actually managed 4 goals but should have scored 10... looks like we took our chances this time. Archie was not present again.
Goals: Ricc (2), Sammy (1), Samson (1), John (1), James S (1).

League: Comets Cougars 1-5 Herons
Another game and another win. Archie didn't play in this one again but the boys did fine. Reports suggest that the 1st half wasn't that good but Herons finished the game off in the 2nd half.

League: Bovingdon Panthers Red 3-3 Herons
Today we faced a rampant Bovingdon team that has been scoring for fun, beating teams convincingly and not leaking goals. The boys were up for this one with captain Liam pumping them up just before kick off. Archie started the game upfront alongside James S.
I can safely say that this was the best match that I've watched in a long time. Archie was unlucky not to have opened the scoring when his shot was parried by the goalkeeper... into Ricc's path who was on hand to tap the ball home. 0-1. Herons played some fantastic football and were confident enough to play the ball back in order to go forward. The second goal came when the ball was played across the front of goal and found its way to James S. Needless to say he burried it to make it 0-2. The game was by no means one way traffic. Herons' back four were tremendous and saw off a number of attacks. Bovingdon managed to pull a goal back just before half time, going in 1-2.
The second half was alot like the first except a little more in favour of the home team. They managed to get the equaliser and then take the lead. 3-2. Our heads didn't go down and we kept pressing. This really is a different team to last season, at this point the boys would have conceded defeat and let in more goals. Not this season though. Corner after corner, finally the equaliser came. Liam crossed in well and Samson was there, infront of the keeper to head the ball in. 3-3. I jumped up and celebrated, it was a goal that we deserved. The final whistle went before we could grab another.
