Yate town report
1st game of the season saw us visit Ashley Down vets at Cribbs sports ground. After and competitive start we managed to take a 2 nil lead into half time. The game was halted for 15 minutes when I Jason Wood received treatment for broken ribs. After the restart we managed to finish the game winning by 6 goals. The game was played in good spirit and I appreciated the support offered by both teams whilst dealing with my injury. Apart for the injury a good game all round.
A game played in good Corinthian spirit by both teams. Both teams very well matched with defences on top, aided by some wayward shooting. Ref clearly wanted some goals so dubiously awarded the opener to Pill thanks to some faulty goal-line technology. Mathern had numerous chances to equalise, with their own shouts for a goal this time disallowed by the same faulty goal line technology. Pill also had close efforts to add to their lead, but again defences were strong and a close win gained for Pill.
An absolutely brilliant game this morning between 2 very good footballing sides. Recliners started well and were awarded a penalty within the first 5 minutes, unfortunately Steve P placed it wide of the post and score remained 0-0. Both sides created chances to take the lead but after 45 minutes it was still 0-0. Into the second half, and Recliners continued to create chances. Paul missed a decent one on one, Rick hit the post but around 65th minute Rick went on a nice long run, and played a beautiful ball into the path of Steve E who slotted the ball home. 1-0 Recliners. For the next 25 minutes, it was end to end, chances for both. Henleaze hit the bar and brought a few good saves from Kris. Recliners held on to a 1-0 win. A brilliant Vets game of football.
