Saturday 15th february 2025 - 1:30pm KO - away (The John Roan School Playing Field) - Queen Mary Cup
northumberland heath vs Blackheath FC
this was a quarter final match of the Queen Mary Cup 2024-2025 and we didn’t expect the game to end this way… The game started with a delightful score from the opposition, but we shortly caught up with a scrabble right next to the goal, which followed by another but was disallowed. We stood fairly confident at half time with the odds dispatched equally. I personally say we were mostly dominant the whole game but they just got the upper hand. They went on the score a flukey second goal a short while before we got given a penalty, which we successfully took, making the game again and equal playing field but the opposition move swiftly back to their end and got their third goal. Our guys pushed, they continued to fight but a win for us today was not meant to be. This game is our first loss EVER! (league, cup & friendly’s) We are filled with frustration and disappointment but we knew we had to have a loss somewhere along the way, we just had jar full of beginners luck. Now we look forward, move on and focus on the next match when we have a revisit with Falconwood U23’s.
