The 3’s got off to a winning start with a close-run victory over a mixed bag of a BA team. It shouldn’t have been that close because we were younger , fitter and better man for man then BA but the oppo broke play up well and for quite long periods made Ashford match the way they were playing…namely big gaps between defence, midfield and forwards and big hits to pass the ball around…when Ashford played short, quick balls they had BA by the short and curlies. I can’t remember who scored the first 2 goals but Kev Cuffe scored the killer third when he ran forward looking to pass the ball but failed and once he found himself in the D, lamped it with some force past the left shoulder of the keeper.
