Although we started the season optimistically (for we had seven of last year's team), our hopes were considerably lowered by a 5--0 defeat at the hands of Central Foundation, and although subsequently, after a slight rearrangement of the team, we defeated Ongar for the first time for several seasons, our fortunes did not really begin to improve until after the Christmas vacation, since when we have so far been unbeaten.
Our earlier misfortunes must be attributed largely to lack of combination, a defect which we hope to banish, now that the frequent rearrangements of the teams to which we were forced seem no longer necessary.
Several individuals call for special praise, among them T.Rayner (goal), R.MeGladdery (right back), P.J.Allen (left back), C.Vincent (right half), A.R.Costin (centre half), and W.O.Jennings (inside left), all of whom we must congratulate on winning their caps.
