Just got home from our FA Trophy tie against Hampton & Richmond and I can’t wait to share my satisfaction at the result. A massive well done to the whole squad today and recently. To go into Hampton’s “Back yard” and limit them to as few goal scoring opportunities as we did was excellent. Not […]

Well the great run we are on continues! Tonight we had a rather tricky contest against Potters Bar who themselves have been on a good run. The professionalism shown was outstanding, on a difficult pitch we played a reasonable amount of football, all the time aware that the long ball to stretch the opposition was […]

The run keeps going! For me very grateful after a comeback from Egham to recover from a 3-0 score line to a nervy 3-2. Giving all of us a tense last 10 minutes to ensure 3 points. On reflection of the match I commented to Chris after the game that I should have been more […]

A really pleasing night at WGC tonight beating a Step 5 team 5-1 with a team full of youngsters emphasising the point we have a strong squad, capable of competing whichever eleven we put out. For me it was as satisfying a result as the many we have had recently because not only the young […]

Hi there! A great day at Garden Walk today. Against unknown opponents in Wimborne Town we thoroughly deserved a cup win, scoring two goals in each half to come out on top in a FA Trophy match putting us in the last qualifying round before the “Big boys” of non-league football come in. My view […]

Hi there. As promised a blog, win lose or draw, an honest appraisal from me. We as a team were well below par in performance levels tonight. The personnel was changed with certain “Fringe” lads in the squad given a starting berth. Several reasons for this, firstly to give them an opportunity to show they […]

Just getting in from a drive round the M25 after winning against Chalfont by 4 goals to nil!! So many plus points to come from the game that if I miss any apologies to the lads. I changed a couple of positions but certainly not due to poor form. John Frendo came in for the […]

Eventually a pleasing evening at Northwood for The Crows winning by four goals to one in a Trophy replay that could have been an awkward encounter. Northwood again going in front early in the game but the resilience shown by our lads was admirable, levelling just before halftime and then putting in a great second […]

Hi there. Trophy tie for us today against a Northwood team, struggling in the League but having the freedom of the cup with a nothing to lose attitude. Coming to us expecting a tough encounter. That it was but from our perspective a very winnable game if we could get to our usual high performance […]
