AFC Vernon Colts 1 Hucknall Sports U8's Saturday 0

Saturday October 2nd 2004 

This was the Reds first away game and they were extremely unlucky not to come away with at least a point. 

This had got to be the Reds best team performance to date; it saw them playing some fluent attacking football whilst defending doggedly when a skilful and well-disciplined Vernon side were on the attack. However lady luck deserted them late in the first half and Vernon scored a deflected goal that turned out to be the only goal of the game. 

This game was an end-to-end affair and would have been a joy to watch for any neutral with both teams playing some great football. 

Surely the Reds first win of the season is only just around the corner.
