   Pilgrims moving even closer to taking big scalps.  GK Steve Goodwin managed to  find opposite number Charlie Jillings off his line to chip the ball into net.  To make matters worse he did it twice.  Barca must have lost way in this game, when I arrived at half time Barca had control, GSC had not scored. GSC did not dominate second half but they did take their chances and probably won second period.  Toll Bar stepped into the league against top opposition in Everglaze.  Before the game Toll Bar, all 16 year olds, asked me how I thought they may get on.  Lose by 10 and you will have done very well.  In fact they played an exceptional first game against an Everglaze team that played some of the best futsal I have seen at Kent St.  Toll Bar are bright lads that will lose some against experienced older opposition, but the lessons learnt will be put to good use against teams their own age.  Everglaze stepped into play East Marsh Inter, another young team that deserve praise for holding Everglaze to a 3 goal difference.
