Headline suggestion:
Stratford 3rd team started with a bare 11 fired up players determined to get the first points of the season against an in form Wolverhampton team.
Against the run of play Wolverhampton scored the first two goals putting Stratford on the back foot. A good poached goal from Philip "the power" Davey followed by a missed flick from Big Red and then a superbly taken 2nd goal from Davey saw the two sides level at half time. A rousing team talk from the passionate Captain McBride led the 3s into what was to be a battle royal of a second half! A dramatic and hard fought second half resulted in Big Red banishing the demons of the missed flick, solidly thudding home attempt number two before two more goals from youngster Davey (a total of 4 on his debut). This took Stratford into a 5-4 lead. A superb passing move was finished by the committed McBride diving through to slot the winner on the final whistle. The third team are doing well to hold their mid table position in the highest league they have played in.
