An inauspicious start to the season as Cloverfield wanted it more, and a rusty FK squad didn’t find it’s heart until the second half, by which time we were already 2-0 down.

Nicky E and Boyley up top missed a couple of opportunities in the first half, but the first 40 or so were more about us being second to the ball, half-hearted in the challenge and slow in defence.  Only new addition Navid Jannatipour came out with any kudos, really – but his brief show when we went to three up was not enough to turn the tide.

Second half was a different story, this was the FK of old with phenomenal commitment and verve – accordingly we spent 95% of the half in possession in their half.  Alas, their second half  keeper played out of his skin, and as Sean P, David L, Carr S and the strikers bombarded the goalmouth – so we hit the bar, the upright and the goalie did the rest.

It’s disappointing that the talent on display for FK couldn’t get the reuslt last night, but it’s early days and it’ll come. This is our season.
