Banter for Sunday 24 October

Still in with a chance of the Billy Walton final? ...or more points in the title chase? ......tell the forum about it.

FC Tumar 5
Wigston Rangers 1

Dan Mitchell

Inevitable result really. 4 Division difference showed, disappointed not to have a scored a couple more though. Kept it at 1-1 for a good half hour, collapsed just before the break.

Glen Parva 10 LB Talbot 0

as we never had a chance of winning the cup talbot put out all our players that don;t play alot . went 4-0 down with in 20 mins then started to get into the game went in at 4-0 nil then after the break 4 25mins keep parva a bay then we just fell appart and let 6 in in 20 min good team parva and the ref was the best i;ve seen this season L Gardner

magna 6 -3 superfly

good game went 4-1 up and looked like we might run away with it but superfly battled back and made it 4-3 at half time we were alot more solid in the second half and grabbed two more goals to get in my opinion a deserved 3 points

FC Kibworth 4 West End United Reserves 2 - could it be magic
Joe Moult (2)
Tom Bradley-Smith
Lee Barton

MDH Knights 5-2 Leicester Accies

Thought we'd give it a go, know were not going to win it but wanted to see how we fared against much higher division opposition, They were missing quite a few I think but we played pretty well, attacking with pace and should of gone in at half time several goals up but for wasted chances it was 1-1. Second half was pretty similar, they kept the ball well for periods but we opened them up at the back fairly easily and improved finishing and them not having a recognised keeper allowed us to take a 5-1 lead, they got another late on a pressed us back but we held out. Don't think the gaffa's too happy wanted us to lose a closely contested game

bakers arms 3 -0 desford poor turn out today yet again from desford game was played like a typical sunday morning game good bunch of lads in bakers side on another day would have been a bit of a better game for you but with what we had was not too bad not sour grapes and well done boys but after 2 league games and not got a side it does not look good but as always the desford boys will pull together and grind it out and to be honest thats all we was going to manage today.

looks like some good results all round today hoskins showing quality and well done to mdh thats one upset i got right anyway 4 divs higher good result boys scrappy or hoskins next maybe

Leicester Polska 6-3 West End United

M. Masters

Spirited performance by us against a side 2 divisions higher and definatly and another step forward in terms of performance but some silly errors cost us just before half time. Good Luck to the Polska lads in the next round.

Bring 'em on then! Don't expect to get to the final but would be good to test ourselves against the top flight! Very surprised how poor Accies were today! They must have had a lot missing or be in the wrong div!!

Azul Zorros 3-2 The Wheel

Shane Birt (2)
Tom Smith

Made changes after last weekends cup exit to QPR, dint start very well, 2-0 down at half time, but we kept battling and ground out a much needed result thanks to an 89th minute winner. Credit to the Wheel they fought til the end.

scrappy 5-3 bullshead

fairly even game today scrappy better 1st half led 4-2 at half time us better second half. scrappy had keeper sent off with 20 to go and we missed a penalty and a few 1 on 1s they also hit the post and missed a sitter felt after the 90 mins we deserved something tho even their players said so but they are an excellent attacking side scrappy best attackin advance best defending and organization should be a belter when those 2 meet.
thanks for the game scrappy and all the best for the season

Many thanks and well done. Made us work hard all game and never gave up

Best performance so far this season from FC Hokins,Even tho we werent playing the best of teams(not taking anything away from niffy they put in a brave performance but they just couldnt cope with our slick passing and quick movement)not alot of teams would have taken away a result today,Ryan Bassett putting in a big performance scoring 4 goals,while Paul Ross(3)Makkie Adams and Jamie Toon also adding Goals to a almot perfect performance if it werent for our goalkeeper(David sills) throwing/dropping it straight to there forward to slip it into a empty net,but apart from his lack of brains for 5 secs put in a good display with 2-3 fine stops.

Final score: FC Hoskin 9-1 Niffy Rangers

little bowden 7-0 lk old boys

should have won by a lot more to be honest..credit to lk though who had no subs and kept going until the end...their keeper played well too to be fair.....we have gone top of div 6 however so hopefully we can try to stay there!...should be an interesting run up until xmas now

Sporting Wigston 4-1 Kauto Stars

Great performance by us today(Sporting), with 7 players out that would be in or around the 1st 11 today, we had to call in a few favours from players that are signed on in case of emergencies. Kauto were in the same boat to be fair and had quite a few players missing, but unlike us didn't manage to scrape together more than a bare 11.
So great 3 points for us and it should go along way to securing the mid table finish target for the end of the season.

County cup.

Sunbury 3 Webbys 5.

Bershov 2
Smith poultney hussey.

Poor 1st half and rode our luck
Better second half and bring on last 16
Disapointed with there lads who pulled our strikers hair which caused
a ruckus.
Wasnt that sort of game.

Sparta rarva res 0-2 Harrow FC

a good performance from us today,totally dominated the game,the best we have passed the ball all season and everyone wanted it aswell and the first time we have been able to field our best 11 just hope we can keep it going,fair play to the sparta lads,real good bunch all the best for the season.

no one seen this coming with both teams players out gotta say well done and ay thats wot a squad is all about we had only 13 today 2 injured and 5 away and played wicked with players away who normally be in 11 today

anyone know why the good old days vs trinderbox game was postponed good old days play on pitch next to us and the pitch is in good condition

Niffy A 2 - 1 Swapo
Very average performance by us today with only 1 or 2 turning up to play well. A number of players seem to coast against average opposition.
Swapo would be a good team if they got on with the game rather than whinging and complaining to the ref every minute about every decision. Got a little tedious with that and the pointless threats at our team, could do with a strong manager there to take 1 or 2 players aside.

Yeah, we've got 30+ players signed on and could only get out the bare 11, with our most injured player going in goal by default. I think this may be our last season, with us going to the vets league next year. We won't fold though, it's not fair on the rest of the division, and we'd like to fight to gain a bit of pride in the league and win a few games. If we get our best 11 out we will win some games, but that seems difficult at the moment. And people seem to underestimate how bad it is not having a regular 'keeper. We've had 6 in 8 games now, with only one of them being a recognised 'keeper. Really makes a difference.

Well done to you boys though, not taking anything away from your good win. Good bunch of lads, you came with the right attitude and won the game fair and square. Thought we dominated for the last 20 minutes (basically after I went in goal - perhaps I should give up playing on pitch!) and could have scored 3 or 4 but too late once we're 5-1 down. I think you guys would do well a division or 2 up, no problem.

Good luck for the rest of the season.
