Windy Bedfordshire

 Monday 3 May 2021, Real Haynes Reserves 4 Flitwick Town 'A' 1 - Haynes Village Hall, Bedfordshire Suplementy Cup 'D'

Small village playing field with 2 pitches behind a large village hall/changing rooms facility, good size car park and the location felt enclosed with a housing estate one side and large hedges behind one goal and to the side of the second pitch.

Pitch was roped on one side.

Very even first half, however Haynes had the (strong) wind with them and had most of the better chances but only scored right at the end of the first half.

I expected the visitors to dominate the second half and make Haynes pay for only getting one goal, however Flitwick seemed to have no idea how to play with the wind and it was the home team who quickly added a second goal. Flitwick got one back but Haynes were very dominant and added two more goals, one from the penalty spot.

The Bedfordshire Supplementary Cup seems a good idea, just disappointing that a number of clubs are pulling out of fixtures, very late in the day.
