Feltham Reds 2 Swans 1

A unseasonally cold day saw the Swans end their season in disappointing fashion away to Feltham. This was a tight game in the first half with the Swans only chances falling to Callum whose shot was saved and Matt whose header cleared the bar. Feltham made better use of the ball and Joe R had to be at his best to make 2 or 3 excellent saves. 

The first half ended scoreless, with the Swans looking to improve over the second half. Fletham however scored 2 good goals with no reply which seemed to spur the Swans on for the last 15 minutes. However, the forward players could not get to grips with the high defensive line of Feltham and were repeatedly caught offside.

Charlie managed to break the offside trap with 10 minutes to go and his shot was saved only for Louis to follow in and hit the ball home. The Swans threw everything forward in the last few minutes and came closest to scoring when Matt stormed forward and laid the ball through to Dan who was unlucky not to test the keeper.

The Swans were caught on the break ad Joe R made 2 or 3 stunning saves to keep the Swans in the game, unfortunately the equaliser was elusive and the Swans finished losing 2-1.

So a disappointing end to a hugley enjoyable and encouraging season which will in all liklihood see the Swans finish third when for much of the season they were challenging for the top spot. Over the season we have seen all 17 members of the squad develop and contribute well to the cause and it all bodes well for next season.

Stand out performances:

Joe R - probably his best performance of the season - great saves, great organisation and all round good keeping.

Matt - what we have come to expect from Matt this season - huge determination throughout and unlucky not score with a great header in the first half.

Louis - solid at right back in the first half, did well pushing on in the second and got a good goal.
