So, away game again...... Sun, long grass, wind and Oak Trees, perfect for painting a picture of a meadow, all that was missing was a horse....... But for silky passing football?....... As Jack Charlton used to say, Never play football in March (or April or May depending on the result).

A big game again and all players except Nkem and Lee on duty...... Jake el Capitano as Adam would say, Dawide in goal, Fylan T, Ethan and Adam in defence. Jake, Dyl, Dylan O and Bradley behind Evan......

Peep..... Game on, Castleknock front foot against strong wind......Evan unlucky..... Cian unlucky..... All pressure. Then Esker's turn, wide attack, Castleknock dive into tackles, not what Thursday training was.... Esker front foot...... Castleknock turning away from play..... Esker time and time again wide right. Adam G bossing them big time..... Great defending left 2v1 all half.  Esker try the Castleknock right......Adam not there they figure..... Back turned, Boom 1-0.

Half time..... Go again..... Like an easy cycle home, Wind at your back...... Watch the glass.....Puncture.....spare tyre yes, but no spare tube, as Jack would say, Trouble at Mill lad......All Esker...... stopped running..... Stopped playing...... Dawide to the fore again..... Sore hands, so many saves. Nutrogena are considering sponsoring him...... Keep is hands in good show you see..... esker sweaty goal....2-0. Josh doing his bit, Dylan O off the bar, Ethan close from corner......peep you guessed it. Game Over. The wind not our fan.....

What else would you be doing on a Thursday night....... So MOTM. Easy pickings, it was one of two....... Special mention to Dawide, immense again. But Adam "Custer" Geraghty....... Well done Adam, awesome performance. We go again Saturday boys.

See you Saturday morning.......
