Bathelona vs Pucklechurch FC Vets

A fresh morning at Odd Down in a game that was slightly ruined with a low sun with us facing it first half and Bathelona second half. Bathelona took the lead from a counter attack and we edged back into it with an equaliser before half time. We got a foothold in the game in the second half and in the end the scoreline looks comfortable but it was a tight game with excellent facilities.

Retainers FC vs Vasco Da South Glos

A close game for 60 plus minutes, Retainers ran out of subs and ran out of legs allowing Vasco to canter home comfortably in the end. Well played to them.

Pucklechurch FC Vets vs Filton Ath 35s

A strange old morning at Pucklechurch but we managed to edge a close game. In truth if Filton took their first half chances it wouldn’t have been a close game at all but a combination of poor finishing, good goalkeeping and lady luck meant we went in 1-1 at half time. Big Steve scored our goal with a sumptuous turn and finish. In the second half the game became a bit stop-start which affected Filton more than us and we took advantage and scored 2 more through Steve and Potter to edge us ahead. This knocked the stuffing out of Filton and the game got away from them towards the end.

Chew Magna Vets vs Pucklechurch FC Vets

Chew 1-3 Puckle
An eventful morning and a good win was marred by a serious injury to Wilts who unfortunately snapped his Achilles early in the second half. We all wish him a speedy recovery.
On to the game. We had loads missing in typical Chew Magna away fashion, but we still went with a decent 14. We went uphill first half and had a golden chance to take the lead after a handball in the box but Sam decided to pass back to their keeper. Within 60 seconds the same man made amends by scoring direct from a corner. Chew started to dominate and equalised through a penalty of their own when Sam handled. And it was that man again who nearly edged us ahead before the break but Sam hit the post from 35 yards.
After Wilts’ unfortunate injury (no fault to anyone from chew for the record, there was no-one near him), we dominated going downhill and Youngy pounced on a defensive mix up to slot home. After several missed opportunities, debutant Pottsy slotted home after good work from Sam and Youngy and we took the three points but with no great happiness after the injury to Wilts.
