The disappointing thing about this result was that Neath equalised with virtually the last kick of the game. 
Torrential rain and a strong wind influenced this game. 

We played with the elements in the first half and led 4-2 at the interval. That was always likely to be insufficient and so it proved ---- just.

On 12 minutes the Neath keeper held a Steve Parry shot just under the crossbar and a minute later a Chris Latham effort went wide. We were not to be denied however but the first goal came in somewhat bizarre circumstances. 

We were awarded a free kick 45 yards out near the touchline, Dan Williams hoisted the free kick into the box and in to the net for his first senior league goal. Unfortunately within a minute Neath equalised from another free kick. On 22 minutes Steve Parry took a free kick which the keeper did well to turn over the crossbar. The resultant corner was cleared but played back in for Liam McCreesh to head us back in front. 3 minutes later Greg Hurley hit one from 30 yards which the keeper saved but the shot had too much power and the ball nestled in the back of the net. On 41 minutes Liam played Craig Jones in, he drew the defender and the keeper and squared it for Ian Jones to sidefoot into the empty net. A minute before the break Neath reduced the arrears to give themselves a chance in the second half.

Neath were unable to break us down in the second half until the 65th minute when they latched on to a poor clearance to net from 25 yards. Despite continued pressure we didn't have many scary moments and with 10 minutes to go John Felton played Ian Jones in but the keeper rushed out to narrow the angle and the chance was gone. A minute into added on time Neath were awarded a free kick 40 yards out and unfortunately for us they scored directly from the free kick. We kicked off and the final whistle went!
