Results 22 november

The 1sts went to high flying New College and despite creating much the better chances, somehow managed to lose 2-6. With 8 mins to go it was 0-6! Jack missed a penalty, then Joner scored and Jack then got one, finding it easier with defenders to beat as well...lol

The 2nds drew 1-1 at home to Chiseldon and were a tad unlucky not to win. Questionable club linesman was involved sadly. The goal came from Rich Callaway (his 3rd in as many games).

The 3rds drew 2-2 at Steeple Ashton Res. Dave Nolan got both on his debut.

Overview of where we stand!

The 1sts are now 16th (of 17), after the win at Bromham. It is fair to say the results havent been as kind to us as they could have been, and a climb up the table is possible, if we can start to take advantage when on top in games.

Target: 8th to 10th

The 2nds are 9th of 13. Again, we are doing ok, and could finish anywhere between 4th and 11th, in what is a tight division.

Target: 6th.

The 3rds are doing great, currently 4th of 10, with some help from the odd 1st or 2nd team player helping to secure some excellent results (2-1 wins at Calne Eagles and Westfield this month for instance).

Target: 5th.

Forester seals bottom club's joy

Bottom club FC Chippenham Youth took the honours in the Wilts Premier Division with a 2-1 away win at Bromham. Delighted Chippenham boss Steve Manifold said "it was no fluke, we deserved to win, the lads worked hard put themselves about and everybody did their bit". After a goal less first half the visitors took the lead with a good strike from Mark Nolan. Chippenham continued to have the edge but mid way through the half Bromham sub Scott Askew came off the bench to equalise for the home side. With five minutes to go Jack Forester netted with a powerful free kick to give the bottom club a deserved three points.

3rds @ North Bradley - 15th nov

NORTH Bradley remain in second spot after beating FC Chippenham Youth A 6-2.
Adam Coutts put Chippenham in front after 15 minutes only for Mike Spong to equalise from the restart. Bradley then went in front after good work down the right finished with Pete Stephenson heading home a cross, giving the Chippenham goalkeeper no chance. It became 3-1 on the stroke of half-time with a tap in by Darren Lawes. The second period saw Bradley pushing for more goals and they scored their fourth on the hour mark as Mike Spong grabbed his second. Two minutes later Richard Callaway made it 4-2 as he netted from close range for Chippenham. With ten minutes left Mike Spong completed his hat-trick after an error in the Chippenham defence. Goal number six came with the last kick of the match as Pete Stephenson scored his second goal.

Gaffer is back!
