Now we're all sorted, it's intended that all remaining money will be donated to @SheffChildrens
New balls and kit will be raffled and/or listed for sale and shared here over the next few weeks.
A lump sum donation will then be our last act as a club.
Started the 2nd half on the front foot and had chances to finish the game off but their keeper pulled a couple of cracking saves off. Jack came at us in the last 15 minutes and we rode our luck and defended solid to a man to see the game out.

Bar the first 15 minutes it wasn't a bad performance with a threadbare squad in searing heat. Losing 1-0 to an early goal we got to grips with our setup and started moving the ball around well. Dan was a thorn in their side all game and put us 2-1 up.
To put a bit of football together and put the game to bed quickly with some composed finishing. It blew the cobwebs away and got some important minutes in legs. Cheers to @FCHandsworthInn for the run out and good luck with the season.

First pre season game out of the way and in all honesty nothing spectacular. First half hour Handsworth should have been 3 up instead of 1 and once we got level we started to settle. 1-1 at half time but 2nd half was mostly 1 way traffic. Birley started
