"This is our first year away from the Thundermite League, and we have received a few shocks this season. The teams in the Southend League appear to be of a much higher standard, and has meant we have needed to raise our game quite considerably. We started our season strongly with a good win over Hockley Orient, and a good away Cup win on Canvey, but have since struggled to achieve the results we so wanted.
Our performances of late have been much improved and we are now displaying some great football each week. These improved performances have coincided with a new trainer, Dale Brightly, assisting with training techniques and coaching weekly, thanks Dale.
With the winter break now behind us, it is only the weather that seems to be holding us back, and we are all looking forward to a strong second half of this season, with some improved results.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank a few people involved with our Under 14 squad:-
To Pete Galliers, for his tremendous support, not only as the Club secretary, but also in all aspects of the team, both on and off the field. Get well soon mate. To Corinne, for her Tea Bar every home game, and being the Club treasurer. As well as putting up with my bad moods every time, we don't win. To Paul Brown, for his refereeing and lines man duties nearly every week. To Hayden Williams for his expertise in sign making for our new Tea Bar. To Steve Burton ( Stato) for his excellent match reports every week.
A special thanks goes to every parent who helped with our work party at the Club House on January 3rd, what a sterling effort........ And to all our loyal supporting parents, and thier help with the nets, tea bar and cleaning every week."
Dynamos suffer unlucky defeat v Shore Athletic (13th Dec)
Dynamos were unlucky not to come away from the game with a point at least. They battled well and matched Shore Athletic in every department and deserved some reward, but unfortunately, they could not recover the deficit from a sloppy first 10 minutes, in which Shore scored twice.
Centre forward Adam ran at the Shore defence at every opportunity, but he was unable to convert his efforts into a goal. His first run and shot just went wide across the goal and during the course of the match, he made many powerful surges into the box, but without the luck he deserved.
It looked as though the poor start could be even worse when right back Robert was harshly penalised after being judged to have pushed a Shore striker in the penalty area. Thankfully, Ross produced a fine save to block the chance and it kept Dynamos in the hunt.
At half time, Athletic were grateful to be ahead. Several Dynamos have excellent performances, notably Robert who was made to work hard at defending his flank, Kieran and Oscar who both shone in midfield. It was Ross however that kept the team in the match again, when he dived to his left to make a fine save and pushed the ball wide for a corner.
At the other end, Joe Williams had a shot saved from the edge of the area but the few remaining chances that fell Dynamos way could not be converted. The boys kept battling on every blade of grass, with tough tackling, good passing and importantly, the desire to help one anther as a team. They could not however, recover from the 0-2 scoreline which did not reflect the game.
