FC leave it late to win


FC v. Rossendale (at Radcliffe) from biffadigital on Vimeo.
Get out the tram station not sure which way to go. Neither does the bloke from Urmston who's looking as puzzled as me. It's left and right somewhere...but we pick up a small group on the way to the game. But they stop off at a pub....it can't be far now. After the longest half mile we get to the ground behind some new build houses.

An early goal from Rory Patterson settles the game down. But chances are few. There is no second goal. I video the chippy hut at half time, about fifty people in the line and only three people serving. Glad I took my own pie. Rossendale might be at the bottom end of the table put they keep pushing the ball around well. Their equaliser comes. It's heading for a draw but some scrappy play gives us a winner. Some scrappy camera work and you can spot it on the video. The last five minutes are played out with time wasting. Get home at 1830h. There were a few Exeter City fans on the tram. They've got a long journey home, and they lost at Bury 1-0. It's a funny old business being a footie fan.

Stats : FC United 2 Rossendale United 1, att: 1,744. Admission £7.50, programme £2, pie (byo) £1.60, tram ticket £2.70
