Made the game with 15minutes to spare after a late finish at work. Unfortunately no physical programme. An ill tempered affair, the I.O.M took the lead through a lob from Doyle but two minutes later the hosts drew level after pinball in the 12 yard box which. A sour note came during a break in play as the visiting no9 was being shown a yellow card one of a group of teenagers made a racist remark which was overheard by some of the away players. Officials came down stating the ref was going to abandon the game unless the group left. Once the game resumed I.O.M re took the lead as a cross was bundled home at the back post off a head by Whitley. Once again it only took Tindall two minutes to score his second after the keeper could only parry an initial shot into his path. Both teams looked for a winner, the ravens had the ball in the back of the net a third time but the flag went up and it was disallowed for offside
