Season Opener.
History created as the newly created webbers utd fc ran out onto huish park infornt of a hostile crowd of 9610. webbers scored early and took some pressure of manager rob malone however it was a tightly fought contest and going into the dressing rooms at half time the webbers only led 1 - 0, thanks to a nice goal early by Marc Robbins. Yeovil played well and where just unlucky not to have had an equaliser but just could not crack the defense.
In the second half it was a tough battle and the media thought the webbers would run away with this game, and fox got one through for a nice gap and a 2- 0 final scoreline. all the hype of the new boys was over and the boys played well, against a very determined yeovil. we gota few words from both managers, firstly the away manager,
steve thompson: very happy with my boys, we where a bit unlucky but take nothing away form the new boys. they played a wide game and a good game which we fought hard against and to loose 2 - 0 aginst those guys, after all there friendlys, its nota bad performance. would have prefered the points but hey its only the first game of the long season. we watched video's fo all there friendlys and they play a good style so we counter acted that but to there credit they changed there sytle and got through us. but a good game anyway. thanks
Rob malone: yer very happy, boys did well, unfortunately we had to leave some guys out but as i have said all along we will rotate and every one will get there chance to shine, but happy to win away from home in our first game so yer very happy. thanks mate
