1sts played at Corsham Town Res and despite some late withdrawals, a weakened team and only playing in patches, we had control of the majority of the match without ever quite being able to dominate. Josh Hodges on his debut for the 1sts came the closest to scoring on 3 occasions, Chris Meaton had a weak shot saved and Joner had what looked a perfectly good goal disallowed for offside (cross was from the bye-line!). Sadly, it was all to no avail, as Corsham scored in the89th minute on a breakaway, and so we lost 0-1. Very disappointing.
The 2nds played Pembroke at home, looking to complete the double, but failed 2-3. Goals from Brett Partner and Dave Nolan. At 1-1, we had a series of gilt edged chances but somehow failed to convert and ultimately paid the price.
The 3rds played a strong North Bradley side at home in the Spring Cup with a bare 11 players, due to a couple of withdrawals due to sickness.
Despite the issues, a spirited team performance saw a 2-0 half time lead. Sadly, this became 2-1 and then with just 3 minutes left, 2-2. So, extra-time was called for! In the end, the guys went down 2-4, but battled hard. Goals from Mark Kmiec and Tommy O'Cain.
