🏆 MAN OF THE MATCH — DIMITRI GAYLE 🏆

A standout performance from Dimi, capped off with a hat-trick in our 5–1 victory over Framlingham Town! ⚽⚽⚽

A huge shift from start to finish and a well-deserved Man of the Match award. 👏🖤🤍

Take a bow, Dimi! ⭐

FULL TIME | FRAMLINGHAM TOWN 1–5 IPSWICH EXILES

The Exiles travelled to Framlingham looking for a better result than our recent trip to Trimley — and we got exactly that, coming away with a convincing 5–1 victory. 👊

That said, there’s still plenty for us to work on performance-wise. We went behind after a mix-up between JT and NDY gifted Framlingham the lead, but Dimi almost single-handedly dragged us back into the game with a brilliant spell before Perrie added a second.

Dimi then completed his hat-trick with two more goals, either side of a Yani Duka penalty, to round off a much more positive result on the road.

We know we need to raise our levels if we’re going to achieve our goals this season, but tonight was a big step in the right direction.

⚽ Dimi x3
⚽ Perrie
⚽ Yani Duka (P)

5–1. Three points. Onwards. 🖤❤️

Maybe we need a few more of you lot at every game. 😂

👏 Take a bow, Perrie.

Trimley Red Devils Reserves 2–0 Ipswich Exiles

A frustrating afternoon for the Exiles as we fell to a 2–0 defeat against a lively, well-structured and committed Trimley Red Devils side.

After a promising pre-season, the Exiles turned up with only half the heart and passion we had shown in our preparation games. From the first whistle, we were second best to everything — losing individual battles, lacking intensity and struggling to find the energy and togetherness that had been so evident throughout pre-season.

Trimley were everything we weren’t on the day: tenacious, organised, energetic and fully committed. They showed that while ability is important, it takes far more than ability alone to win football matches.

The opening goal came from a sloppy defensive error at a set piece, giving Trimley the advantage. Despite attempts to respond, the Exiles couldn’t find the quality or urgency required to get back into the game.

The second came in spectacular fashion, with the evergreen Ash Veitch producing a wonder goal to put the hosts firmly in control and ultimately seal a 2–0 victory.

A disappointing result, but one that offers plenty of lessons. The standards shown throughout pre-season have to become the standard on matchday — with the heart, passion, commitment and togetherness needed to compete for 90 minutes.

Full time: Trimley Red Devils Reserves 2–0 Ipswich Exiles.

We go again. ⚫️⚪️
