START FIRES ROLLS IN TO THE SEMI FINAL

Notts Senior League
League Cup Quarter Final
MOORGREEN FC 1 HUCKNALL ROLLS LEISURE 2
att: 57 Headcount
First ever programme £1

When high flying Second Division Moorgreen FC announcing that they were producing their First ever programme for their 1/4 final cup tie v Senior Division League Leaders Hucknall Rolls Leisure a while ago, there was only one place I was going to attend. Over the past week I had taken orders via the internet and with Clubman Keiran not being able to be at the tie, I said I would sell the programme for them. On arrival at the ground, I had orders for 26 programmes. The programme was a very good effort and all that bought one was impressed.
 
It was good to meet up with old and new faces including Simon Matters, Derek Coope, Peter Chappell, Alan Savage amongst many more and Bill & Denise who bought their advanced NSL Groundhop Tickets.
 
Before kick off, I took the Moorgreen FC team photo and then stood with ex Eastwood Town Manager Paul MacFarland(who was only in charge for 3 games until the sad events at the club which he was left in the dark of a lot of the points).
 
I then joined Simon Matters as the game kicked off and it was a fairly even 20 minutes with the homesters cutting out the better of the early exchances, simon then popped and got us a cuppa, as he returned on 42 minutes, ref Andy Rolfe awarded a free kick to the home side that landed to the feet of WILL GORDON who slotted home the rebound.
 
Half time came and I was joined by Ashland Rovers Manager Jez Wright and one of his players, Jez kindly donated to the Blogs Charity before he left. During the half time break, Moorgreen stayed on the pitch whilst Rolls went to the changing rooms where they must have got a earful, as they came out for the second half much more fired up for the game.
 
On 55 minutes, Moorgreen should have increased their lead when Bowler fired wide, this seemed to fire Rolls up, as they pressed forward and ANDY START tucked home the equaliser on 57 minutes.
 
The tie was now neatly balanced and Rolls had their tails up now and looked a bit quicker to the ball and on 63 minutes ANDY START was in the right position again to put his side on front.
 
Moorgreen then took the game to their visitors and must have thought they were level when a attacker headed just wide.
 
Both sides played some good football during the game but it was Rolls who went through to the Semi Finals of the League Cup.
