Belated results
20 Apr 2007
Apologies for the late posting of the most recent batch of results, I blame global Warming...everyone else does!!
The result of the week has to go to Phil Dowrick’s Under 11a team who toiled in the baking sun of last Sunday to grind out a 1:0 victory over Horsham YMCA and win the CDJFL Knockout Cup.
On a sloped pitch Foresters dominated the entire game and never gave up on clinching the victory in normal time. Never before have I seen so many nervous supporters on the touchline all biting their nails to the quick, willing the team to win. They thoroughly deserved their win. Yes, the result points to a close game and in many ways it was, but ultimately the dominance and simplicity of the football played by these boys made the result “never in doubt”. Well done to the boys, Phil, Steve and Julian and of course to the loyal band of supporters
Elsewhere over the weekend we had lots of teams in action (including the U11’s again!). Results as follows:
Tandridge league
U11 TJFL South drew 1:1 with Redhill
U13 TJFL beat Coney Hall 3:1
U14 TJFL lost to Surf 3:1
Crowborough League
U11a drew 1:1 with Hastings Town
U11b beat Crowborough Athletic 2:1 and 2:0 in a double header
U13b lost to Ashurst Wood 6:3
U14b lost to Ridgeway 5:4
U15 drew 3:3 with East Grinstead Town
U16 lost 6:0 to Old Town Boys
As the season draws to a close a lot of teams are frantically playing catch up with lots of midweek games. Keep up the good work and give it all you have in the last few remaining games.
Finally, a special mention for the U10 Girls team who play Patcham United in the Cup Semi Final this weekend. Good luck girls!!
