I caught most of the ICST Peg/West Van game and it was like watching a different league to the afternoon tilt......the game was played at a blistering pace with some quality football being played by Peg at times, particularly on the counter-attack. I can't say the same about WEst Van though as they were very content, especially in the second half to bypass the midfield and pump long balls up to the 4 forwards they often had. ICST did a great job of dealing with this as Andy Singh in goal played off his line a lot and picked up a lot of knock downs. The back 4 of ICST Peg was very solid. The middle of the park......Adam Costley/Niko Marcina......excellent...tacked well won tackles and Adam is playing with torn ACL.....guy is one of the toughest players I've ever seen. Overall, it was a very enjoyable game to watch and I'm glad I made the trek out to NAP. Congratulations to Surrey United on winning the league. A 22 game season is tough and you obviously deserved it. Well done to ICST for an outstanding second half performance and hopefully gaining some momentum for the Imperial Cup and to West Van for coming so close to repeating as league champions.
The weather held off for the most part but thank fcuk I had my wellies on for the afternoon game as McNair didn't hold the water as well as the cement at NAP.
