       Match Reports
       Welcome to our match reports, it is great to finally be able to report on a new
       season of competitive action.
       Last Tuesday saw us come up against Step 5 newcomers Hereford Lads Club in our
       historic first Hellenic League fixture and as expected, it was a very tough match.
       We created the bulk of the chances but didn’t put them away and left it late to
       secure victory with a fine strike from George Kellow.
       Saturday  saw  a  three  hour  trip  to  North  West  London  for  the  FA  Cup  Extra
       Preliminary match at Broadfields United.
       Sadly, this game didn’t go especially well as we struggled to adapt to the 4G playing
       surface at a very well appointed ground. By half time we were two goals adrift and
       without experienced potential game changers on the bench, we fell further behind
       in the second half.
       Skipper Jake Hodgson struck our consolation goal after great work down the wing
       from new signing Will Webb.
       Final Score 4-1 and our FA Cup dream ended for another year. Back to the League
       and FA Vase it is then!!!

       This Evening’s Opponents
       Westfields moved across to the Hellenic League in 2019/2020 and as result of the
       Covid outbreak, they have been unable to complete a full season.
       Their form in that first season was highly impressive with a record of 20 wins and
       6 draws prior to the season’s curtailment.
       As  always,  get  behind  the  boys,  who  need  to  show  a  much  improved  level  of
       performance after Saturday’s disappointing setback.
