Swans Rule The Manor

Bournemouth Manor 0 Swans Reserves 4

Swans Reserves registered their first away win of the season with a superb 4-0 victory against Bournemouth Manor in Dorset League Division 2.

Swans started brightly taking the game to the hosts, Dyke found Cavendish with a good ball but he over ran the chance. Grygiel and Brassington both went close with shots. Janes for the hosts had a good shot saved by keeper Jacques. Swans deservedly took the lead when following a Furmage cross Brassington headed on for Sam Peacock to finish from close range. Swans doubled their lead when Charlie Brassington fired home from long range following a good ball from Grygiel. Swans keeper Jacques had to be at his best with a smart save just before the interval. H.T.0-2.

Jacques again saved his side, however Swans were in the ascendancy with Peacock and Dyke going close. Swans went further ahead when the hosts' keeper Jones was shown a red card for fouling Dyke in the penalty area and Sam Peacock converted the resulting spot kick. .Charlie Brassington secured the points for the Swans with number four, running through and slotting it past stand-in keeper Janes.

The victory included a clean sheet and credit must go to the Swans keeper and back four especially centre back pairing Roy Lock and Jordan Crosland.

A superb performance only soured by the injuries sustained by Simon Page and Stephen Pryor. Everyone at the football club wish both players a speedy recovery.
