On a blustery remembrance Sunday you could have heard a pin drop during the one minute‘s prematch silence. Well done to the boys and adults alike.
In a match of few chances the deadlock was finally broken halfway through the second half.
Grays were awarded a free kick which Tyler took, the keeper parried the strike and Josh was there to nip and slot the ball into the net.

S.Pumfrett opened the scoring within 39 seconds after Bearman had hit the post and then set up Price for the second. Klessa-Smith added a third from long distance and Price added a fourth after a shot from S.Pumfrett was blocked.Stopher then belted in a fifth just before half-time. The second half was again one-way traffic as Edmunds struck a quick fire hat-trick and Klessa-Smith got his second from a tight angle. Defender M.Pumfrett got a rare goal from the penalty spot after a Cosmos defender caught the ball on the line.
U10 ECHO LEAGUE TRENT DIVISION
Pegasus 0 Grays Athletic 2
Goalscorers: Edmunds, S.Pumfrett
The boys travelled to Hornchurch today in search of another 3 points to keep them at the top of the table. The game was a tough, hard fought, scrappy encounter and the Grays fluency seemed to be missing today.Edmunds scored 13 mins into the first half time neatly tucking the ball away at the far post. A minutes silence was observed at half-time on this day of remembrance and the game restarted in the same fashion as the first. With 5 minutes to go Bearman run down the left wing and passed to S.Pumfrett who took the ball around the opposing keeper and slotted the ball home. A well earned 3 points and we have another tricky away tie next week against Cowley Boys on Wanstead Flats.
Man-of-the-Match: M.Pumfrett
Under 10 - Thundermite league
Thurrock Panthers 1 - Grays Athletic Blue 1
Goalscorer: Gould
A generally lacklustre performance coupled with poor finishing saw Grays drop two points away to Thurrock Panthers on Sunday. Gould gave Grays a deserved league in the first half and really the game should have been wrapped up by half time. However Thurrock came back in the second half and grabbed an equaliser direct from a free kick.
