Boorley Green B emerged as the big winners of the week – despite being on the end of a 30-0 walloping.
Boorley could only raise eight players for their Division Eight clash with Chandler’s Ford, but rather than look for an excuse, they decided to go out and play.
They paid a hefty price but earned huge respect as they saw 30 goals fly past them as Chandler’s Ford took ruthless advantage.
A dozen players got on the score sheet, Ollie Burroughs leading the way with six, Jack Somers five, hat-tricks for Sam Piper, Charlie Smith, Charlie Crockford, and Jack White, a double for Billy Hugill, and singles from Sam Collins, Ollie Searle, Brett Stanley, Harry Crockford and Darsham Aurora.
By complete contrast, the other Division Eight fixture between AFC Spitfire and Netley Royals B ended goalless.
