Crook Log FC v Beckenham Park Rovers

Weekend of the 25th April 2010 saw Crook Log venture over to Catford South London for the away fixture against Beckenham Park Rovers.

With Crook Log holding onto 2nd place and Beckenham Park failing to pick up a point so far this season the game should be a formality, but the game still has to be won and as Crook Log discovered against Gravesend Spartans nothing can be taken for granted.

True to form with games like this for the first 10 - 15 minutes the game was held at 0 - 0, however Crook Log continued to use the width of the pitch and deliver the ball into the box which Crook Log put away, this was closely followed by two individual efforts along with a goal keepers parry that put Crook Log at a comfortable 4 - 0 lead at half time.

In the second half Crook Log's Manager wanted Crook Log to continue with the attacking football, which amongst some wild shots also saw a couple of outsanding strikes from Crook Log leaving the game 7-0.

A good game was had by the referree and full credit to Beckenham Park who maintained their composure, lesser teams would have resorted to other tactics given the scoreline.

This result keeps Crook Log FC in 2nd place in the Bexley B League but with top of the League Lessa Albion beating Gravesend Spartans 5-0 and 3rd place Sutton Dynamo beating Wickham Park 6-1, both of these teams are better placed than Crook Log who can only continue to win their games and hope the others slip up.
