ASHBOURNE 2NDS 2 - DERBY 3RDS 1 Well this was a real bottom of the table battle, or your actual 6 pointer, and we came off second. It was an even game from which a draw would have been a fair result, but yet again goals were in short supply, and despite tight marking for the majority of the game we lost players at key times and they punished us. Ashbourne got a goal in each half, after I equalised from a penalty corner late in the first, but we failed to add to that. We had Caroline in defence to help Rachel with the tireless running and control of midfield, but didn't create enough definite chances in attack, despite endless running from Jules and Steph. It was probably the first game this season where we had more corners than we conceded, but still came off second best. Onwards and upwards. We can beat Buxton. Thanks to Biff for turning out on such a miserable morning. MOM votes were : 1 each for Jules and Steph. 3 for Caroline, but "Awesome Rachel" won with a well earned 7. Val
