Match 3 – 9th November 2004: Jack Flash v Original Pirate Material

Flash struggle to a win against Pirates

In a game which Jack Flash should have won much more comfortably, Original Pirate Material were lucky not to have conceded more goals and lucky to score at all. A lucky own goal gave first blood to the challengers, Mark scuffing a cross from John towards the Pirates goal for it to be converted via a defensive confusion. Before the break Jack Flash spurned many chances with Mark and John coming close as defensive work from Rob and Ed allowed them the space to run at defenders. The Flash were hit with a setback just before the interval with a controversial goal from a kick-in, possibly converted by Rob on the line. A good team mentality allowed Jack Flash to get over this hurdle and go into the second half more positively, re-establishing the attacking dominance they had in the first period. Dave and Paolo's attacking presence was noticeable on the field in their league debuts, against the 5-man Pirates. Good determination from John allowed him to poke the ball through to Mark for an easy, but emphatic, finish for the winning goal. A win for the Flash was deserved but only just achieved. After the game the team speculated that, against better teams in League D, the finishing of chances would be key to victory.

Match 2 – 2nd November 2004: Jack Flash v The Armadillos

Chairwoman of the supporters club treated to a rout.

Miss Harvey attended what turned out to be a formality of a game against The Armadillos. The Armadillos showed early signs of weakness, allowing Mark to get on the scoresheet for the first time this season, also a landmark first headed goal for the club for the misfiring striker. Every player on the pitch managed to get onto the scoresheet this game, partly due to the outfield play of Ed Smith, who was today's goalkeeper. Expert, and at times fortunate, defending allowed Jack Flash to register their first clean sheet of the season.

Match 1 – 26th October 2004: Jack Flash v The Mighty Phantoms

Phantoms trounced at Halloween

In an impressive competitive debut Piers scored 5 goals, matching the club record for a debutant made by Pikey last season. Captain Ed Green also got himself on the scoresheet with some impressive forward runs from defence. Perhaps most surprising was Mark's inability to find the net after his 21 goals last season were the backbone of the Flash's impressive unbeaten stroll through Term 2.
