Excellent report Hugh. Was it Mickey Lewis (Ex City Coach) who was playing for the Veterans.

: From Hugh:
:
: Umbro National Veterans Cup Sunday 4th
: November 2007
:
: Oxford City (1)3 (Barresi 36, 57, Bradbury
: 65)
: Cherry Tree Athletic (0)0
:
: City notched up a comfortable victory in
: their opening Umbro National Cup group game.
: The match against Bournemouth-based Cherry
: Tree Athletic was an unaccustomed morning
: kick-off but City showed no sign of
: tiredness.
:
: City took the game to the opposition from
: the start and only good goalkeeping stopped
: them killing the tie off in the first
: 40-minute period. Steve Jenkins in
: particular could have had a first-half
: hat-trick but Julio Barresi scored the only
: goal before the break, ghosting in at the
: far post to knock in a Mark Gee corner from
: close range.
:
: The second period followed a similar
: pattern, with City having the lion’s share
: of possession but sometimes being
: over-elaborate around the penalty area.
: Barresi added a second after a goalmouth
: scramble had seen several attempts blocked,
: and Shaun Bradbury completed the scoring
: with an excellent goal when he danced round
: three defenders and the keeper.
:
: This was an excellent game, played in great
: spirit and featuring some superb passing.
:
: Team: Fleet – Graham, Melville, Lewis, Dark
: – Creed, Bradbury, O’Hara, Murphy – Jenkins,
: Barresi. Subs: Gee, Clarke.
