BSYL - Year 10. Rockleaze 1-1 Foxes, 05/12

Oh dear. After a string of terrific performances, the Foxes dropped points against Rockleaze. The game was switched to St Bedes due to effects on Stoke Lodge of the never-ending rain.

The first 10 minutes saw the Foxes on top but fail to score, although Ed hit the bar and Joe's great shot was tipped onto the post by the Rockleaze keeper. Out of nowhere a mix up at the back lead to Rockleaze's only shot on target, at an empty goal, to take the lead. Oh dear indeed.

This setback seemed to upset the Foxes and we lost our grasp of some of the basics. Our shape became ragged and we rushed in possession. The second half saw almost unrelenting action in the Rockleaze goalmouth, but a mixture of good keeping, poor finishing and a series of near misses meant that Omar's last minute screamer could do no more than secure one point.
