HEAD LINE- Harms Rolls Back The Years
Holland Reserves 10 West Clacton 1
Holland reserves were forced into making seven changes for the visit of a young West Clacton reserves side, and Holland welcomed back Draper, Wayne Chapman, and Scott Gove and gave debuts to young Harms and Hepburn up front.
Holland started brightly with the Gove brothers dominating the midfield and with the lively harms and Hepburn up front Holland was in control.
Holland took the lead when Chapman’s corner was scrambled home by Olliffe, and was 2 up when good work by Gove and Olliffe set up Harms for his first goal for Holland this season and Holland’s Second.
Holland was coasting and had further chances but Chapman and Hepburn missed when well placed.
West Clacton did have a couple of half chances but could not beat the Holland Goalkeeper Harrigan.
