London Falcons (LUFL) FC 4
London Unity Football League
Sunday 28th September 2008

The Falcons’ quest to retain the London Unity League got off to a sensational start with a thumping 4-0 win at Stonewall.

Sam Elliott’s menacing cross was put into his own net by Chris Bariurski fifteen minutes in and Gary Britnell kept his composure to double the advantage before half-time.

Debutant Henry Collins-Hooper scored with his very first touch as he coolly poked around the Stonewall keeper after Elliott’s right wing pass to seal the points.

Tim Elliott added the gloss with a glancing headed in the closing stages to completed the rout.

Manager Sam Elliott said: “If anyone were to write a book on football, look up ‘how to win away from home’ and you will find a description of today.

“We scored our goals at exactly the right times, got the all-important third with a classic counter attack after soaking up some pressure and not a single performance out there was anything less than exceptional.

“I was chuffed for Henry but I can’t let the debut performance of Chris Mortimer at right-back go unnoticed. We have certainly sent out a clear message this afternoon.”
