The Corps 2 - 1 Ipreo

Friday 1st June saw Ipreo FC face The Corps - arch rivals from years gone by. The game got of to a slow start but Ipreo were sure and steady, with defence holding back a very organised Corps team on the attack. Keeper Psycrow looked to keep a clean sheet going into the second half, until one Corps attacker released a torrent of shots, two skilfully saved, but one finally finding the back of the net. 1-0.

In the second half, the team's energy and enthusiasm was impressive, and Newby was gunning for a goal - yet, somehow luck was not on our side. Manager Colin Greer tried out new signing, Guy from Media Sales, who brought bags of energy to the side, but The Corps stood tall.

Finally, Hemscott's time came, with an impressive shot from Sean - can't really remember what happened though, think I was looking the other way. 1-1 and it was all to play for at the kick-off, but, in a bitter twist, The Corps dramatically took possession and fired it up our end - it found it's way past defence and into our goal mouth. A lucky break.

With little time left, Newbers was on the warpath looking to equalise and salvage the match, but energy and moral in the team was running low, and sadly it was not to be. Final score, 2-1 to The Corps.

Not the Corps
The Corpse, not the Corps
