Pikes 3 Long Eaton 0

[Pee-Tee-Eff-See]

A rather disappointing game today, which never really flowed at all, referee was poor and made some petty decisions, even a harsh handball which gave Pikes a penalty right on half time, which was easily despatched by Ricky Greening, as our Zico was on the bench.

Long Eaton never really tested Kev at all who had not much to do in the 2nd half, that saw Danny Gildea score a great goal as he pounced on a thru ball to head past the onruching keeper to head home .

Then after Chris Batchelor was fouled 25yrds out Pikes scored a third from a clever free kick which Brian Dutton laid off to Batch who blasted home with the aid of a slight deflection into the bottom corner.


For his sheer determination and hard work , I give Danny Gildea MOTM

Good result though. Glapwell won as well, so its definitely all to play for on Tuesday

Ta muchly.
