No Admission or Programme.

I had been here previously, having seen Wixams play a Bedfordshire County League match on the grass pitch that runs parallel to the 3G caged pitch. This is actually one of the better caged venues to watch from, not that it takes much to be better than the majority of these places. Viewing is along nearly the full length of one side and there are very few obstructions in the way. It also helped that the pitch is only divided into 2 small sized pitches during other use, so fewer other coloured lines to contend with!

I only arrived here a minute before kick off, nearly being caught out by them kicking off twelve minutes early. Moulton came into this with a 100% winning record from their nine matches so far and had beaten Cranfield 9-0 in the reverse fixture. Today was an absolute hammering, but to be fair, all the goals were top quality finishes and it was easy to see why Moulton have won all their matches. It would be nice to see them against better opposition, but there won’t be too many teams testing them at this level.
