Happy<br />
reading, and<br />
enjoy the<br />
game! Neal<br />
Welcome back after a blank Saturday and hopefully some time for our walking<br />
wounded to get patched up and ready for action tonight. Last weekend there weren’t<br />
many results that helped us, although Southall could only scrape a draw at Frimley<br />
Green. Sutton Common, Spelthorne and Hanworth Villa all won so it is as-you-were at<br />
the top. Tonight’s visitors have only won one league game but with 3-4 games in hand<br />
on those around them it is a slightly misleading position and they will be looking to<br />
climb away from the bottom four with teams reaching the quarter-way mark of the<br />
season. Last Sunday, I was down here watching <strong>Ascot</strong> Ladies and whilst the opposition<br />
struggled we can take nothing away from some of the passing and movement of Darrel<br />
Evans’ side, who also finished clinically on their way to a big win – match report later<br />
on in the programme. The provisional fixtures for the full season are now available and<br />
whilst they are sure to change, whether due to cup, weather or COVID-19, it does help<br />
get dates in your diaries.<br />
Relegation trouble? Stoke Gabriel<br />
are England's' worst football team<br />
having lost all 12 league games in<br />
the tier-6 South West Premier<br />
East - conceding 154 goals!!!<br />
I feel sorry once again for Jersey Bulls in Division 1 as they now have to contend with<br />
local requirements to only travel/play one match per week, which kinda screws up<br />
their ability to fulfil their fixtures unless they can work around it but sending 2<br />
different teams to the mainland for 2 weekend matches or restrictions are released.<br />
The other team I feel sorry for is Stoke Gabriel, who were recently featured on the BBC<br />
website having taken numerous hammerings in the South Western League. Last<br />
weekend they lost 17-1 at home against Ilfracombe Town to take their goal difference<br />
to minus 151 after just 12 league matches. I’m not sure if they will make a late surge for<br />
the title, but who knows. Anyway, back to business, back to wining ways for us please.<br />
Enjoy the game! Neal<br />
