We always knew it was going to be tough and we prepared right for this although missing a few regulars the younger squad members didn't let themselves or the team down, stepping up when they are needed and performing very well.

We went about the game really well and took an early lead 1-0. Montpelier to their credit didn't fold or give in they carried on trying to make it hard for us with the occasion set piece needing to be defended well by our lads. We maybe could of gone in at half time with more of an advantage than 1-0 making it more comfortable for us.

Second half we came out looking to put the game to bed and we managed to do this with good confidence and playing the way we can, creating and taking our chances, scoring 3 more goals and putting the game out of reach of our hosts. A good day at the office one would say... a 4-0 win away from home and with more players making there senior debuts moving up from the U18s it's great to have these lads using the pathway the FC offers to senior football. They were a credit to the football club.

Our attention now moves to Tuesday night when we travel to Worthing United FC for a 7.45pm ko for our 4th game in 10 days... another quick turn around where games are coming thick and fast.
