First game of the new season, so off to the Bull in Downton for a bite to eat and a couple of pints with Andy and his mate Stuart, a Stevenage Borough fan. Took a while for the food to arrive and we ended up parking just in time for the 7.30 kick off…or so we thought. Just as we were walking through the carpark there was a cheer from the Salisbury fans as Robbie Matthews scored in the first minute. Blast!
With the Salisbury squad split into two for a simultaneous game elsewhere, it was an opportunity to watch new signing Declan McGregor up front.
In the humid evening conditions – lightning was reported at the other game – the game was more about fitness and regaining match practice than flowing football. Downton made a couple of chances but a good finish from Wayne Turk made it 2.0 to Salisbury.
