Double-digit defeat in Wilts Cup


8 October 1995, Wilts Cup at Mannington

KMLC FC 0 Rodbourne Cheney WMC 10

(I think this might be the infamous 'you might want to get a bit tighter' game so will report it as such)

The Kylies sat out the opportunity of playing in the Wilts Cup in their first season but decided to give it a bash in their second campaign. It didn't go well.

We had been anticipating a tough game from 'the Cheney' and centre forward Paul Parsons had been singled out as a threat. Manager Stu gave the marking task to Big Kev. 'Keep tight to him' was the instruction.

6-0 down at half-time (four to Parsons) Stu reiterated his instructions: "Kev, you might want to be a bit tighter."

Big Al won MVP which suggests we might have got away with just the ten! Sharpy's sub appearance was his only involvement this season while Gratty came on as sub and won Spoons in what would be his last match for the club.
