Saturday 13th March Home vs Launton (L 2-8)

The Blues needed to win their last game of the season to finish 3rd, and it all started so well with Cumnor having all the pressure. The Blues were looking good passing the ball around, and Cumnor got a penalty and a 1-0 lead they deserved. However Launton immediately responded and a soft goal brought the tie level.

The game continued and Cumnor again spurned opportunity after opportunity, with Charlie having 3 clear chances, before Louie managed to add a second. Cumnor were still looking the better side at this point, and the defence looked solid, until 1 minute later when the lone Launton striker levelled the score again with a well taken, or soft, goal (depending on which side you were supporting).

Then just before half time, Cumnor conceded a free kick about 10 yards outside the box, and the Launton full back managed to find the top corner and Cumnor went into half time having had the better of the game but losing 3-2.

The second half is best forgotten. For 10 minutes it was still close, but when the 4th goal went in, Cumnor lost their shape, and the scoreline started to tick over, ending the season on a bit of a thumping which their earlier play hadn't deserved.
