Five star Swifts see off Seagoe
Manager Robin Butler had a strong squad with him who started tentatively with Seagoe coming out off the blocks looking to avenge the 4-0 defeat to the Gers at Cheney Park earlier in the season.
After the initial period of defensive work the Swifts set about trying to penetrate Seagoe with Paul Frazer and John McCahon linking well with wide players Wilson and Copes.

Within five minutes the advantage was doubled with the mercurial John McCahon collecting a ball from Matthew McCrum behind the last defender and proceeded to walk the ball past the keeper committing him to the ground early with a drop of the shoulder and allowing for a tap in from a yard.

Brian Chievers and Davy Rogers dominated the midfield battle throughout the game and set up the third goal which was saw John McCahon score his second goal and in similar circumstances by rounding the keeper and tapping in from less than a yard.
