Well then another season is upon us, — pre-season anyway.
There is something about pre season tours; it's one of those things
that once you have been on one, life is never the same again.
Don't ask me what it is, but it's just fun fun fun.
We are in the mountains for a couple of games to step up the
fitness. Today's game is versus an Austrian non-league side
that's part time, and the main stand only holds about 300. We
have another game tomorrow so squad rotation will be used.
9' 1-0 Chadwick. Ball into the box; Chadwick controlled the
ball well, with time and space; he turned and shot into the bottom
left-hand corner.
12' Alexandersson off; Osman on
33' 2-0 Chadwick. Another ball from the midfield, from the
edge of the box. Linderoth headed the ball to Campbell who
could have shot himself, but laid the ball square to Chadwick, who
was in a better position. He made no mistake anyway, sending
the keeper the wrong way, before taping the ball in to the net.
36' 3-0 Chadwick. From the front edge of the area, ball at
his feet, unmarked; plenty of players either side, he looked up and
let one fly, the ball flew into the bottom left-hand corner.
Half Time 3-0
45' Hibbert off, Nyarko on
47' 4-0 Campbell. Bit of a mix up in the Bad Goisern
defence, the ball passed back, the keeper came, KC touched the ball
past him, all that was left for him to do was side-foot the ball in
the empty net.
61' Chadwick almost made another goal; he hit the post, the ball
in from the right, Chadwick shot first time on the run.
62' Li Tie & Pascucci on; Gemmill & Campbell off
64' 5-0 Pascucci. With in a couple of min's the Italian
trialist had his name on the scoresheet. Bit of a gift, the
ball in from the right from Li Tie, the keeper unable to keep hold
of the ball, it fell right on the goal line; all the Italian had to
do was toe the ball over the line.
67' 6-0 Weir. From a corner kick via Pembridge, Weir
out-jumped the defence to head the ball with power.
85' 7-0 Pascucci. Weir this time became the provider, a
well-hit ball from midfield, and Pascucci just out jumped the two
centre backs to gently head the ball over the keeper.
Full time 7-0
Tomorrow's game will be a bit harder as they are 3 leagues above
today's opponents.

The
first run-out for the Moyes Boyes of 2003-04 was accompanied with
torrential rain in the small Austrian hamlet of Bad Goisern.
Everton's high-profile internationals, who had been given an extra week's
summer holiday, were rested from this meeting with Austrian non-league
minnows who were designed to provide an easy entree to competitive
football in the new season.
