After a 1st half where we seemed to sit back and defend, we finished 2 nill down from two corners and maybe sloppy defending. Half time brought changes from some trialists to our regular squad and totaly transformed the game. From a defencive sort of game we rallied to a much more attackig formation and realy took the game to Ashton. Although Ashton scored a 3rd we started to impose on the game and got visibly stronger as the half went on causing Ashton some real problems. Some good build up play from defence to midfield led to some neat set up forward play by Roscoe to Brookes who rifled in a goal for Borough. A stong 2nd half display particularly from Molly and Owen led to a real encouraging feeling for the season ahead. Barlow put in a great 1st half shift and Chris Makin was as composed as ever and Brooksy as lively. It was great to see the 2nd half chances we created which could have easily put a diffrerent slant on the game. Only my oppinion of course but ive been impressed with the pre season games considering trialists have been included, the Man City, Ramsbottom, Bury and our 2nd half display today have all been impressive.

Agree with Tickety, some great football from both sides, with lots of end-to-end action. Thoroughly enjoyed meeting up with my old mates from Ashton....and hearing that that "little nuisance" Kyle has made it with Oldham! I think both sides will do well this season.
Couple of disappointments....the f'ing and blinding from the Ashton dugout, it does neither you nor the great Ashton Club any favours....and the constant berating of his defence by Nick Culkin....you don't get the best out of your players by constantly moaning at them....try complimenting them instead and see what a difference it makes!.
Thought Sean, Chris Makin and Martyn were excellent....with Brooksy, when he came on. Adam Roscoe was terrific, Mark Jones worked his sox off and Ben Manning continues to impress.Only disagree with Tickety on the first 2 goals which both came from superb crosses!
Great game....and I won a bottle of Bacardi to boot! yeeeehaaaaa!

Fair play dave, but i did say maybe as he seemed unchallenged from what i could see but a good run out and some great idividual performances.
