The days of double opportunities on Bank Holidays are a thing of the past. In fact, I only had four possible new grounds today. Halwill or Farway United (Devon & Exeter League Div 1 and Div 4 respectively), A.F.C. Coventry Rangers (Midland League Div 3), but they are apparently getting floodlights, so I will keep that back for a midweek visit, or the game here at A.F.C. Brislington. This was the highest level, so the choice was nice and easy.

A.F.C. Brislington had lost their first four games, but were only fourth from bottom in the league table, as there were three teams who were in the same boat, but with inferior goal differences. It was easy to see how they find themselves in this position as they had no attacking threat where it really mattered and just never looked like scoring, even though they created plenty of chances. Wrington were little better, which was surprising for a team third in the league, but they did hit the post and had a goal ruled out for a handball in the dying minutes of the first half. The second half was much of the same, meaning my run of 82 games without a 0-0 was brought to an end.
