Arriving on a mildly warm Tadcaster away day, even before the kick off whistle blew, Keyesyy started picking up DoD votes after only bringing one sock, forgetting his water, and eating his breakfast on the sideline comprised of homemade butternut squash chicken curry and rice, which he described as "banging".
As the whistle blew, it was clear why Tadcaster only lost one game last season. Despite best efforts from the defensive line, Tadcaster quickly converted once, twice, then three times. After licking their wounds at half time, York rallied again ready for the second half.
Within a few minutes, York finally breached the Tadcaster D. Willow received the ball within 2 metres of the goal, looked up, then proceeded to miss the open goal. Watching from the sideline and hearing what he thought was the inner sideboard, Keyesyy jumped up and cheered, again stacking up more grounds for DoD.
Nearing the end of the game, Bedders smashed a long ball across the pitch. Keyesyy recognising the pass is beyond his reach, he throws himself on the floor and slides a few metres in attempt to reach and control the ball. With a helping hand from the now heavily bleeding Keyesyy, what was going to be a corner sideline ball, became a central 16...
In spite of an amazing team effort, particularly Oli Peacock showing defensive displays beyond his years, and Roddy performing jaw-dropping saves unexpected from his older age, the game finished 4-0.
Despite the scoreline, the 6s can hold their head high as they played good hockey and gave it their all. Except for Keyesyy, who has been called into an academic tutorial to discuss "time management" after unwisely commenting in a seminar that he has spent more time writing DoD match reports than doing work for his university degree...
