Ashford Scorers:
Ryan Holland, Amit Bhamra
An unconvincing 2-1 win and both our promotion rivals losing mean we have gone equal 2nd and only 2 points off top spot. That was the (very) good news but we can’t be happy with the way we played - we started very brightly and had 2 or 3 excellent chances before our pint-sized munchkin, Rhino Holland clipped in a fine cross-shot off the post. However that was as good as we got, Bracknell were much improved from earlier in the season and started to link up well. they apparently had 2 new players - one who was a real handful and would be pushing our 2’s here. It was no surprise when they broke through our left and the lad finished well and we were the happier team to hear the half time whistle.
We needed about 20 minutes not 5 to put things right but we injected a bit more passion into our efforts and the game was relatively even with Bracknell having more territorial possession. We continued to look more incisive than Bracknell and Tom did not have too much to do… in the end the game was won with a Big Amit whack midway through the half and we played better thereafter without looking particularly comfortable - a vital 3 points given next weekends stag do!!
