Just got back

It was 4-2 to The Owls in the end.

They were 3-0 by up half time. Gilmartin didn't have much to do, but still saw three first half goals fly past him, the last a good 2 minutes into 1 minute of added time :x Deeney had a few first half chances, but couldn't put any of them away.

Will Grigg came on at half time for ASBO and despite looking like the lead singer of The Pigeon Detectives, he put us back in it with a well taken goal. Deeney got our second with a thumping header from a Zaaboub corner, and I was really pleased for him, leaping off my seat which I rarely do at reserve games :D .

We huffed and puffed but could equalise, and then they grabbed a 4th in stoppage time.

There was a rather boisterous Owls fan in the crowd, which lead to some good banter, and possibly the best atmospeher at a reserve match ever.
