Hellenic League Review…..
Bishops Cleeve now leads the Premier Division by twelve points after Joe
Selman’s goal was enough to bag all three points at Westfields. This result
coupled with Bradford Town’s 2-0 home defeat by Malvern Town gives them a
big advantage at this stage of the season. Joe Bullock and Kyonn Evans netted the
goals for Malvern.
It is still extremely tight in the race behind Bishops Cleeve. Brimscombe &
Thrupp are now level on points with Bradford in third place. Their 4-0 success
over Lydney Town was secured by Oliver Barnes, Oliver Pitt, Jonty Welch and
Sam Folkes.
Cribbs have now returned to fourth spot after they demolished Shrivenham 5-0
on their own patch. Jack Fillingham netted twice, and there were singles for Ryan
Crouch, Jacob Hodgson and Nick Jones.
The fastest-rising team is Westbury United. They crushed Chipping Sodbury
Town 6-1 at The Ridings on Saturday and now lie within one win of second place.
Daniel Price 2, Callum Demkiv, Stephen Hulbert, Sam Jordan and an own goal
accounted for their tally. Adrian Harvey notched a consolation goal for The Sods.
Longlevens have now slipped to seventh spot following a disappointing 2-2 with
lowly Calne Town. Ethan Dunbar and Joey Haswell hoped to have won the day
for the Gloucester-based outfit, but Joe Williamson and Gary Lock earned a point
for Calne.
Corsham Town and Westfields are just one point further behind after 1-0
defeats to Fairford Town and Bishops Cleeve respectively. Tom Golledge
grabbed the only goal for Fairford.
A single goal from Oliver Price saw Hereford Lads Club take all three points at
Roman Glass St. George.
Thornbury Town crashed 5-0 at home to Royal Wootton Bassett Town for
whom Bailey Gallagher, John Mills, Sam Packer, Alfie Presley and an own goal were
the marksmen.
Hallen picked up a rare win, 2-1 at Tuffley Rovers thanks to Saul Jarrett’s
double. Warren Mann pulled a goal back for Tuffley.
Studley cruised to the top spot in Division One, winning 4-0 at Malmesbury
Victoria with a hat trick by Dan Carter and one from Dale Edwards.
Their cause was helped by a shock 2-1 home defeat for Worcester Raiders at
home to lowly Abingdon United. Connor Ferguson and Isiah Stallone gave United
their surprise three points whilst Jordan Murphy bagged a consolation goal for
Raiders.
Clanfield 85 are just one point behind the top two after a 3-1 victory over
Cirencester Town Development. Declan Shepperd scored twice and Josh
Gibbens the other. Cheltenham Saracens kept in touch with the leaders
following an exciting 4-3 win at Littleton. Ryan Dobbins 2, Jordan Bryan and
Austin Parker eventually out-scored the hosts for whom Cameron Walker 2 and
Delami Bradshaw-Hall were on target.
Stonehouse Town were rampant at home to Bourton Rovers – beating them
6-0 with strikes from Alex Kibble 2, Nick Humphreys, Lee Keveren, Tom Parker and
Ryan Thwaite found the net.
Goals from Nathan Payne and Lennon Lewis gave Shortwood United a narrow 2-
1 success against Hereford Pegasus. Matthew Reeve scored for the visitors.
Pershore Town routed Moreton Rangers 5-1 thanks to Roland Krol 2, Josh
Willis 2, and Petar Tochnchev. Doug Wallace scored a consolation goal for Rangers.
