This was a very good start to the season against what might well be one of the weaker teams in this small group. It felt like a Mellor team that had been playing together for a long time, as indeed they have. There was lots of controlled passing, neat cuts and plenty of goals. Generally it was a very powerful display with some solid defending and confident goalkeeping. Although there will be tougher games this was a very team focussed, energetic start to the season. Well done Mellor!
