Enfield Old Grammarians 0 Old Meadonians 4

Old Meadonians were back, not quite to their sparkling best, but certainly showing themselves capable of heartening the management with an all-round team effort in comfortably beating mid-table Enfield Old Grammarians.

On the half hour Meads found their A.F.A. Senior Cup Final and league run-in further jeopardised when Jack Costello limped off having torn a calf muscle to be replaced by Ed Glover.

However, with five minutes to the break the visitors were rewarded as second team striker Nick Wilson robbed a dozy defender on the left and provided Jones with a tap in to put them in one up.

The interval discussion revolved round the fact that the half chances would continue to be offered and now would be snapped up and thus tactics would not change.

This is what eventually transpired, to the relief of the management, as with twenty five minutes to go Craig Jones’ pace took him clear through the middle to slot past the oncoming goalkeeper.

Five minutes later Ed Glover headed in a corner from the right before Jack Holmes volleyed in at the far post.

With five minutes to the final whistle came the best of the bunch: Jordan Mace put in a deep cross and Wilson rose between two defenders to power in a header.

Squad: Robinson, Mace, Gerrish, Goode, Quinn, Holmes, Costello, Gowers, Shea, Wilson, C. Jones, Orchard, Glover,
