Malton 2-TAJFC 2 + Match Rearranged


TAJFC had an unsettled day at their away fixture against Old Malton. Playing on a VAST pitch the Lads were 2-0 up when Josh J took a shoulder barge from an opposing player that resulted in a movement from which Old Malton scored. Unfortunately the injury to Josh was quite severe and necessitated a trip to A&E. Shortly after this Joel B was the victim of a mistimed tackle and took a nasty knock to his hip. Briefly down to 10 men, a rattled TAJFC conceded a second goal.
Joel B was allowed back on the pitch and was promptly booked for dissent following an altercation with a Malton player.

Though the play throughout the game was a little "confused" it was an improvement on last week (just!). Our Goalie John kept us in the game - again - and was awarded Man of The Match for the second week running. The goals came from Joe Simon and one from Young George Brown - "come on down"!

STOP PRESS**
Next week's home game against Tadcaster Magnets has been re-arranged to Sunday 15th March. We have no match next Sunday - training as normal on Friday.

FINALLY**
Many thanks to all those who have bought tickets for the Valentine's Party. This fundraising event is crucial to the running of the Club in the period prior to the TAJFC Tournament. The expenses for running TAJFC have increased dramatically with the costs of running the 2 full size pitches at the Ings alone total £5,000+ excluding the cost of referees, kits or equipment.
I understand if this type of event might not appeal or it may be difficult or expensive to get babysitters or transport on the night. If you can't come or you think the event is not for you - could I respectfully request a small contribution towards the running of the club for the next couple of months. Cheques payable to TAJFC please. If your cheque or contribution exceeds £15 I will throw in a free ticket to the Valentine Party that you can gift to anyone aged over 21.
