The Rams started brightly once again with the lions share of the possession and chances. Tom Scott in the Rams goal called into action only a couple of times. Arran and Lewis combining well up front came close on several occasions to breaking the deadlock.
James and Corey stamped their authority on the midfield once again with their tough tackling and some good play. Sean brought into defence for the game once again showed his versatility with a solid performance.
The Rams made the break through just before half time with a ferocious long range effort from Corey Edwards too hot for the Burnham keeper to handle with James Heady on hand to pick up the loose ball and slot it away.
The second half Burnham crept back into the game and were pushing for the equaliser with the break through coming down their right hand side, we got sucked in to the ball again similar to how we conceded last week against Chalfont when the cross came in there were 2 un marked players waiting to knock in the leveller past the exposed Corey in goal.
The Rams kept going right to the end, and were almost denied the draw through a somewhat biased refereeing decision over ruled by the makeshift linesman. A good show of fair play from both sides leaving the friendly match ending a fitting 1 - 1 as per the earlier meeting of these 2 sides earlier in the season.
Tom Scott buried the ball home just seconds after the final whistle and assured me after the game that if we would have had 30 seconds extra time we would have won the match!

Excellent game to watch. Credit also to the Rams for the way they reacted to the referee's mistake in awarding a goal to Burnham. No arguments or bad behaviour, you just left it to the ref and linesman to sort out. If only more professional players behaved like that! Well done Rams!
