Match Report

Gunners continued their bright start to the season with a convincing win against West End.
Gunners started the brighter of both teams and took a two goal lead through Bill Maslin and Paul Stout who scored direct from a free kick.


However, after this early spell West End came more into the game although tended to rely on the long ball on too many occasions.

West Ends improvement earned them a goal to give Gunners a 2-1 lead at half time.
In the second half Gunners gave themselves a two goal cushion when Bill Maslin added his second. West End were weakened by the loss of a couple of key players and their lack of confidence was evident as Gunners added more goals through Bill Maslin who was played through once by Paul Stout and a second time from Ross Nelson.


The longer the game went on, the stronger Gunners looked and the better football Gunners played.

West End failed to create many opportunities in the second half although Duncan had to make a good save from the right wing which he parried away.

In the final few minutes Gunners added a sixth goal when Paul Wallace headed in his first goal for the team from a corner from Paul Stout.

The final score was a comfortable 6-1 win. Bill Maslin was Gunners "Man of the Match" for the second week in a row after a good four goal display.
