tell us all about it

Played npe today. Was a poor performance by us. Went 1 down from a back pass that I went to clear and it bobbled over my foot lol. 2nd got lobbed from about a million yards
they're 3,4,5th goals couldn't do anything about. Tbf good set of lads at npe and will cause teams some problems. Good luck in the next round

CSKA 1-2 MJR

Pretty even game, which probably should've been 7-6 rather than 2-1, not a day either teams forwards will remember fondly. Frustrated now to have lost 2-1 and 5-3 to two higher division teams, yet come away feeling we could've got more if we were just a bit more clinical. Oh well, back to league businesss next week.

All in all a pretty enjoyable game played in a good spirit.

Wigston Fields 1-8 Suecastle

I must admit the scoreline doesn't tell the full story of this game.  Unlike previous weeks where we've played some good football but just not hit the back of net as much as we deserved, we've barely kicked into gear today and bagged 8.

We took an early lead and found ourselves 3 to the good after around 25 minutes despite Wigston Fields having the better of the play.  They pulled one back before the half and we went into the break 3-1.

The second half was a completely different ball game.  We played some better stuff at times and through great finishing and sloppy defending/keeping we soon had the game sown up.  An injury to the Fields keeper certainly didn't help matters for them and we grabbed another few before the end.  Fields perhaps should have had 1 or 2 more goals but for bad finishing.

Unfortunately Suecastle player/manager, Adam O'Shea, suffered a broken leg during the first half of the game and will be out for the foreseeable future. It goes without saying, we wish him a speedy recovery.

Good luck to Wigston Fields for the remainder of the season.

Leicester foxes 9 - 1 Enness


I can see why teams are getting so irate over Leicester foxes being in this division


I got told today that going into division two would be hard but I need to get the players in for it. Surely foxes should have done the same and be put in the prem or at least div 1

Good game against Talbot today. First two of are goals were crazy goals and luckily put us on track for a win. Talbot were a great set of lads and improved loads second half when conditions were in their favour, they got back into it at 3-1 with a well taken goal but had to chase the game which left gaps for us. Very windy and a big plus for us was our keeping collecting everything. Good luck for rest of season talbot...

@rwhite08. U boys passed it well and used the conditions very well. My howlers in goal didn't help lol still can't believe that back pass bobbled over my foot. Oh well good luck to all at npe for the rest of the season

North Kilworth 0-6 United Revolution

Both sides made changes to both personal and formations as they faced each other for the second week on the trot. Once we took the lead after 2 minutes we assumed another goal feast to follow up last weeks 7-4 cup triumph but we took control and despite some good pressure from Kilworth, especially in the second half we defended well and got a well deserved clean sheet.

Kieran Rowley linked up with Josh McCameron three times in the first half to give the yound striker his hat-trick and United a 3-0 half time lead.

Second half we got less of our own way, but continued to plug away and tried to play some good football. Jim Markley came off the bench and scored two either side of a strike from distance from the "buzzing" Ian 'Chicko' Hickling

Many candidates for MOTM Josh McCameron's first half hat-trick, 3 assists from Kieran Rowley, Chicko back in midfield and bossing it, but the clear standout player was Luke Moore a rock at the back

Next week another long away trip (6th away game on the bounce) this time to Star Inn, anyone remember where we play our home games?

Aths 6 - Horse 3

Again took us a while to get going, majority of the side still drunk (including me) We scored scored a free kick to go 1-0 Horse equalized to go 1-1 into the break.

Scored another 2 free kicks and a triple sub at 2-1 gave us much needed energy. Fair play to Horse, think we under estimated them, shouldn't be near the bottom. Gave us plenty of problems, front 2 linked up well and got stuck in against us. Away leg will be tough.

Also praise for the referee Oli MacKey- for a young lad was very easy to talk to, and controlled the game very well, playing advantage where possible and was very assured in his decisions. Credit to Alliance League

Indeed, the fact that I didnt notice him at all during the game was a credit to him, the way it should be

Talking of Refs ours was very good also, Alec Simpson. Had a top game.
