<p>&nbsp; <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">To paraphrase the sorely missed PubWatch&copy; it was a balmy day down in Battersea.&nbsp; The tube was horrid, the Kings Road scenery was indeed fit for a King &amp; down at Battersea Park BoC &amp; F&amp;P, went head to head.&nbsp; With a welcome return for a Dutch orange clad Dan in goal we kicked off.&nbsp; A sluggish start was made, people distracted by both the heat &amp; Stu&rsquo;s Mum who was in the hockey goal getting an all over tan. <p>&nbsp; <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">&nbsp; <p>&nbsp; <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">Controversy soon came to the fore when a rubbish clearance from Zamora was sent back in &amp; was it &lsquo;hand to ball&rsquo; or &lsquo;ball to hand&rsquo;?&nbsp; Whatever it was, the decision was made &amp; the penalty was tucked away.&nbsp; A few decent chances for both teams but half time came &amp; it was clear something needed to change. <p>&nbsp; <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">&nbsp; <p>&nbsp; <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">Salvation came from an unlikely source, the man in the cabin ran over &amp; reminded us you are not allowed football studs on the pitch, confusion reigned as to who, until he walked over to the hockey goal &amp; pointed downwards.&nbsp; She tried to pass them off as mouldeds but he was having none of it &amp; she was escorted out. <p>&nbsp; <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">&nbsp; <p>&nbsp; <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">What a transformation!&nbsp; Minds back on the game, Gareth tuned nicely to score &amp; then a Lotthar Mattheus effort from Wayne quickly put us in the lead.&nbsp; Wayne &amp; Zondervan tackling hard &amp; Intertoto his usual mix of good fitness, good passing &amp; very average shooting.&nbsp; Dan coming off his line Neuer like, meant that only the penalty was conceded in a strong defensive performance. <p>&nbsp; <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">&nbsp; <p>&nbsp; <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">Neal sent a cracking free kick just over before Ilyas tucked one away &amp; Chris thundered in another.&nbsp; A curling effort from Zamora finished off things &amp; 80 minutes later &amp; very tired &amp; now unbeaten in 8 games in team trooped down the pub to listen to Hoofer rant against the Royals &amp; the Scots. <p>&nbsp; <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">&nbsp; <p>&nbsp; <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">#bringbackpubwatch <p>&nbsp;
