Sat 8th Sept.: County Semi Final v Nemo Rangers

Valleys started this game as underdogs. With great defending and tenacious attacking saw Valleys dominate the half and Nemo new there were going to battle hard if they were to win. A splendid display by Valleys saw them leading at half time which was well deserved. However, in the second half Nemo started to take control and even though Valleys played out of their skins they were enable to withhold the Nemo attack. It was late in the second half though before Nemo took the lead and this was mainly due to the great efforts and galant display of the Valleys team. They can hold their heads high for providing such a great team display. Nemo went on to win by 2 points.
Well done to the Valleys team and they did themselves and the club proud.
