Banter - Sunday 8 September

F.C Pochin 4-0 Q.P.R

QPR were never really in this game appears 2 games in 3 days was far too much as the energy was never there .

Fair play to Pochin's they did a very good job on us today & deserved their win on that showing they will challanging this year altho im told Humberstone really fancy their chances.

Pochins had 11 men who were comfortable on the ball that were all in the mood & clicked today

For QPR bad day at office that we need to move on from & bounce back next week vs Wigston

Niffy Rangers 2-1 Webbys
Started the game really well, but a wonder goal from Webbys striker after 15 minutes left us feeling like it wasn't going to be our day once again. However with our pacy front line we always have a chance. A couple of goals from long balls got us in front at the half time. In the second half both teams had a couple of chances but the ball didnt hit the net again. Happy with our 1st win and much needed 3 points.

Not 100% sure what happened with the reserves but the lads mentioned that some of the Wigston Rangers lads still had NRI shorts. Any news on whether the team name is changing??

We had 2 former NRI players today. The rest of the 14 man squad played for us last season. Was a surprising result as we had expected a tight game; the Niffy defence was non-existent, could quite easily have been 18 or 19.

Ah I see, I thought you mentioned you already had 1 or 2 NRI players signed on, and then signed a couple on yesterday morning? Your correct our defence admitted they were poor.

Desford Rangers 0 - 2 Inter Mivan

1st win of the season, and about time .. !! Missed the first two games but hearing from the lads .. we were a little unlucky infront of goal but no excuses... a loss is a loss.
Very good performance from the lads, we have lost a few players this season but have added a lot more quality, just need time to gell and understand each others game.

We wanted this game a lot more than desford in my opinion and it showed all over the park. We played some good football, kept the ball for long periods and a clean sheet always helps. We got another couple of talented lads back next week which looks good for mivan. A lot stronger squad than last year and in honesty a better side but it will take a few games to gell.

Desford are a good bunch of lads ... worked hard but in honesty can only remember a couple of shots on target. (decent centre backs, and a talented no.9) ... good luck lads played in good spirit..

White horse 0-4 lks

Cant fault our lads today really even though we lost i thought we still played some good football and got in behind quite a few times if it wasnt for there flag happy lino we would have got afew today must admit some were off but there were also quite afew that wernt. Lks scored 3 sloppy goals on our behalf we just couldnt get rid of the ball to clear our lines for some reason they also scored a miss hit cross that done our keeper even though there player will claim the shot lol. One of there goals was also offside our lino flagged for it but it wasnt given. The guy who scored wasnt off but a player that got a touch to put it into his path come from an offside position so in that respect i thought we were unlucky. But take nothing away from lks they are a quality side and are solid through out they should win this league easily. Always a good game against them good bunch of lads great banter as always due to afew of our lads knowing most of them all the best lks look forward to the game atbyour place.

I wouldn't have thought they'd need any help from their lino.

A great lad indeed, people like him make the alliance what it should be.

Fosse City 3 - 4 Willowbrook

Decent first game of this season for us. In the end we should probably have had a point. Fosse were 2-0 up after half an hour but 2 identical goals in a minute just before half time meant it was 2-2 at the break. We took a while to settle down in the 2nd half and fell behind only to equalise direct from a corner. Last 20 minutes was end to end stuff but Willowbrook managed to grab the winner with a 25 yarder from Shaun Barber. We could have equalised at the death but had a chance blocked on the line.

Not sure how strong a team we faced yesterday, they're a very good side but certainly not unbeatable. Coupled with St Marks losing I think Division 1 could be a little tighter than first thought.

we didnt need help from the lino as there young forwards were to eager to run towards goal and with experianced heads at the back they were offside most of the time with there own players telling them they was off , i think u forgot to add that we missed shed loads of chances and missed 2 open goals n hit the post and bar !! like i was saying to unwin n priddy yesterday theres no doubt u boys will be up there come the end of season but your 16 year olds were hidin for u yesterday which didnt help ya and a few key players missing aswell , see u next sunday thou as were comin down to watch n support u guys ;-)

MJR 3.0 Pukka Pies

Connor Atkinson 2
Matt Keogh 1

Great performance from the MJR Lads. Could have been 10 if our strikers could finish. Pukka got moved down from Div 4 to 6 but after yesterdays performance they should be in 7. Are keeper did not have to make one decent save. I think they will struggle this year. Hopefully the lads can build on this for next week. Referee had a decent game apart from one doggy decision which he then apologised for not giving the penalty to us.

Still not sure what happened yesterday, despite the result certainly for the first half at least if not a bit more we played well......

Enjoyed the game a lot, which most may find hard to believe and the banter with Giff was first class as usual. Even the photograper managed to catch my good side

A rest for me next week as I'm off the run the great north run for Charity if my old legs will let me finish but the lads will be back stronger next week

Good luck to Humbo for the rest of the season and I still stand by my pre-season predictions they will be top 3

missed the last 2 games because of holiday but really pleased we have won both
blackie for manager next season is what i say with his 100% record  

MJR saying we should be in 7??? What happened in pre -season when we beat you 2-1??? like I did say we had 7 lads away on a stag do!!! Will be a different story when u come to our place and play on a proper pitch and not one with a running track in it..

That hill is as bad as ours

I noticed the running track on it as we were walking to our game and I thought then that was a bit rubbish. Hope MJR are getting a discount on the price for that.

It's a very small pitch aswell, we played a friendly there before!! Although in fairness I love our pitch on knighton park

haha i hope so!! They do tend to settle by October, but if not and we dont get 3 points, least the lads will know where to run around 3 laps
