Opposite is a pitch length covered in enclosure which is also painted in the club colours, with open standing behind the goals. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #202122; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #202122; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">Due to the rotten weather I was unable to get any decent photos, so I've posted some alternative pictures of Beechwood Park in all its glory.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivX-L4dADbTmOy_ly0SU6GRV9nzzFGOBMb9ZK88nFJCeFBcmQJQMonP-p0cnGmdH1WRS76EdMOXRTEfI8MCk1dHPo_3OxLEwi4MEfWEkMqWPo__XTEB7cZwt4Q4TSi6gI_fiKKqV0cmcB451Evz5ydwTEoW3duToyPderIhHwLS-NW3t-26GIL/s4080/20240316_201755.heic" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3060" data-original-width="4080" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivX-L4dADbTmOy_ly0SU6GRV9nzzFGOBMb9ZK88nFJCeFBcmQJQMonP-p0cnGmdH1WRS76EdMOXRTEfI8MCk1dHPo_3OxLEwi4MEfWEkMqWPo__XTEB7cZwt4Q4TSi6gI_fiKKqV0cmcB451Evz5ydwTEoW3duToyPderIhHwLS-NW3t-26GIL/w400-h300/20240316_201755.heic" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwSk1JIotvs-ti6Pf8FUZQA2UDwHI5cv6GEokZ7IyQfnkzIJBMvw4-i_ehg7vjEBx95oYxXyeKVRKzxDu9BwaUUjSAEjGa12QWH7j8jsZdBkKKLGpE0FgG5k4b81TKTnn4Y90Ir1PmgiUCCYFX8EFwYbnAnnSDj9uAc6RWPmmC0o9be_VZ26J3/s4080/20240316_202055.heic" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3060" data-original-width="4080" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwSk1JIotvs-ti6Pf8FUZQA2UDwHI5cv6GEokZ7IyQfnkzIJBMvw4-i_ehg7vjEBx95oYxXyeKVRKzxDu9BwaUUjSAEjGa12QWH7j8jsZdBkKKLGpE0FgG5k4b81TKTnn4Y90Ir1PmgiUCCYFX8EFwYbnAnnSDj9uAc6RWPmmC0o9be_VZ26J3/w400-h300/20240316_202055.heic" width="400" /></a></div><p></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><b><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: red;">Sauchie Juniors 3(Smith 7,32pen 45)</span></span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><b><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #1d1d1d; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">Hill of Beath Hawthorn 2(Watt 46 Tosh 83)</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #1d1d1d; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">Matchday 23</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #1d1d1d; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">6th v 7th</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #1d1d1d; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">Att.447</span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #1d1d1d; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #1d1d1d; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">It lashed down with rain during the 36 mile drive down to Sauchie, so when we arrived the pitch at Beechwood Park didn't exactly look match fit.

The clubhouse is behind the goal, and again, this ground is three sides due to the neighbouring cricket ground.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMCYwILg3XqP76-k2oFNDgZY9iZmrpjiQ8ET6lHQx0LCz992c9-3G9xk6rLG6vjjN8SICbtB5_0RA9n84P22UpJ9ISSva0rlbVfz9Fk9dCKGxsVVlZu4x3-g1TqIWVxflilK81iLimi004_k8TKlsGVH61iI2g0Ykyj-QX-sXlhOjlbTyGit-l/s4080/20240302_135918.heic" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3060" data-original-width="4080" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMCYwILg3XqP76-k2oFNDgZY9iZmrpjiQ8ET6lHQx0LCz992c9-3G9xk6rLG6vjjN8SICbtB5_0RA9n84P22UpJ9ISSva0rlbVfz9Fk9dCKGxsVVlZu4x3-g1TqIWVxflilK81iLimi004_k8TKlsGVH61iI2g0Ykyj-QX-sXlhOjlbTyGit-l/w400-h300/20240302_135918.heic" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxURjXl2XX99hqMezXo2DLBEL0zNJCErKbagaEW4juPMYw7cb7uLdgPoULQ4hS6KcX3W3X9Yh52UCCYqRHrivJIjVM3BkfsfvHzeFeUXpg2HBDwd6WmB5Wc-nOwvqap0cUygAGIjWROofsMzhGrI0avB8dVRD9CMW4bZJ4AB1oLpRGXDaKCP5D/s4080/20240302_140033.heic" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3060" data-original-width="4080" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxURjXl2XX99hqMezXo2DLBEL0zNJCErKbagaEW4juPMYw7cb7uLdgPoULQ4hS6KcX3W3X9Yh52UCCYqRHrivJIjVM3BkfsfvHzeFeUXpg2HBDwd6WmB5Wc-nOwvqap0cUygAGIjWROofsMzhGrI0avB8dVRD9CMW4bZJ4AB1oLpRGXDaKCP5D/w400-h300/20240302_140033.heic" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><b><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: red;">Garstang 3(Darley 24 Ball 33 Bailey 50)</span></span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><b><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Ashton Town 2(Lomax 67 Ready 70pen)</span></span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #202122; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">Matchday 28/26</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #202122; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">16th v 5th</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #202122; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">Att.388</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #202122; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">Spon:</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #202122; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">Admission £6</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #202122; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">Coffee £1.50</span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #202122; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #202122; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">This match had a 10.30am pitch inspection and the club played a blinder to get the game on.

The match was due to kick off at 1pm, but just as I arrived the referee was doing a pitch inspection and had no hesitation in calling off the Burnley U-21 v Coventry City U-21 fixture. I wasn’t the only Groundhopper who arrived in the area early to tick off this ground, as I spotted a lot of familiar and totally pissed off faces in the car park. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #202122; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">This meant I had a few hours to kill before booking into the Ibis Hotel, which is north of Preston, just off the M6. The Leyton Lion was handy for some bait and numerous cups of tea and coffee, then I had a cheeky half in the Market Ale House. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #202122; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">The rest of my plans went perfectly and without any hitches. I only planned to do the first three games of the NWFL Groundhop, because I’ve already been to the two grounds in Blackpool which formed the rest of the Saturday schedule. I was back home at 6.15 on Saturday evening and I was sad to learn that both of the later games fell foul to the weather. (so I imagine there were a lot more pissed-off faces!)</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6-RsGdW8jaWDWudcLxxvBydwUzN6e8UQ_ZUjuhT6fIqyh-3VibmzdSM8ZpPDEObMI4B7cHldg8rBn18EoL8OxVKRifpwwEC869FzNkVajSfG6KOsJ7vL3m88H_VbfQ-o9qtVV8NTldMLtsrY-JyzGPi6cX7fVzye1lFU5HxSvE61wVclq7FNz/s1600/IMG-20240302-WA0000.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6-RsGdW8jaWDWudcLxxvBydwUzN6e8UQ_ZUjuhT6fIqyh-3VibmzdSM8ZpPDEObMI4B7cHldg8rBn18EoL8OxVKRifpwwEC869FzNkVajSfG6KOsJ7vL3m88H_VbfQ-o9qtVV8NTldMLtsrY-JyzGPi6cX7fVzye1lFU5HxSvE61wVclq7FNz/w200-h150/IMG-20240302-WA0000.jpg" width="200" /></a></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #202122; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">It was an enjoyable trip and it's always good to meet up again with like minded friends.

On arrival I was dropped off in the town centre, while my travel companions headed straight to the ground. I had a leisurely stroll around town and called for bevvies at the Old Eagle, then The Old Town Hall Vaults. There's plenty of hostelries in the town and if I had more time I would have had a canny pub crawl, before walking up to the ground at round half-two. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjw-rT5yuJCP6zQfpChdDI6apnVlnXVK3n0pLIKcz4lz9pnGrm105736vmDCy7DNiDPXtXs3CJFCKM_-g1DWShpnBIlGMLpxN-frOYg7xRgpZ3EXtjcNEd668BqZe3Y4Olar217XLRiGCsi8j4fe_McTX9IYPDJcYb854dVsoQT6hMFJGkeOYkp/s1080/IMG_20231223_171526_281.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="810" data-original-width="1080" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjw-rT5yuJCP6zQfpChdDI6apnVlnXVK3n0pLIKcz4lz9pnGrm105736vmDCy7DNiDPXtXs3CJFCKM_-g1DWShpnBIlGMLpxN-frOYg7xRgpZ3EXtjcNEd668BqZe3Y4Olar217XLRiGCsi8j4fe_McTX9IYPDJcYb854dVsoQT6hMFJGkeOYkp/w200-h150/IMG_20231223_171526_281.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><o:p></o:p><p></p><p class="p" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan; padding: 0pt;"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia;">Overall a good day out with great friends and a smashing ground to end the year with.</span></p>Shaunhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14248307280874291642noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31627570.post-49016661677939378932023-11-19T13:59:00.002+01:002023-11-19T21:12:08.730+01:00✔901 Hetton Lakes<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">Hetton Juniors 3-1 Ferryhill Athletic</span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">Wearside League 1st Division Challenge Cup - First Round</span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">Saturday 18th November 2023</span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhK0uWYOYGJEY8noSaVA1FffsUAW1GOoMmR_sfAn1dy2Iv2fa2uwlqWxeEBSybyZupKQusd-9L7DIkxr5MdVvOguBH-7c29MajhU2SX9SrIwlZTPECeWi5z4T-eVwdPJfivTIlEuBUw_drCNGbOM_F1FjhwQH-gt60ONgxuIl7p_wkBLPqrw5jx/s4080/20231118_132628.heic" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3060" data-original-width="4080" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhK0uWYOYGJEY8noSaVA1FffsUAW1GOoMmR_sfAn1dy2Iv2fa2uwlqWxeEBSybyZupKQusd-9L7DIkxr5MdVvOguBH-7c29MajhU2SX9SrIwlZTPECeWi5z4T-eVwdPJfivTIlEuBUw_drCNGbOM_F1FjhwQH-gt60ONgxuIl7p_wkBLPqrw5jx/w400-h300/20231118_132628.heic" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMmRsAGI3aLWYzpbEsbbjI-ii8u-Tktaqhjg76ph2OG4wKsE8K9jqVG0m39ZlVeI3O2fzXQmqkDsUUtcQANMx8B3LnXAIboAEhMRtotioUWJ1zeoXR0R1hoZ5f0y54DIqdvVQAQittosWWZN5yVJhaU1U_b5gscAwyy_UPODBsInzT-HLZnAwk/s4080/20231118_132732.heic" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3060" data-original-width="4080" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMmRsAGI3aLWYzpbEsbbjI-ii8u-Tktaqhjg76ph2OG4wKsE8K9jqVG0m39ZlVeI3O2fzXQmqkDsUUtcQANMx8B3LnXAIboAEhMRtotioUWJ1zeoXR0R1hoZ5f0y54DIqdvVQAQittosWWZN5yVJhaU1U_b5gscAwyy_UPODBsInzT-HLZnAwk/w400-h300/20231118_132732.heic" width="400" /></a></div><p></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">Another chance to see a match at a new venue following another fixture switch to a playable pitch.

Braiden Barry got his shin on the end of cross to put Silkstone ahead, before Harry Ogden nipped in between the defence to head home the second on 84 minutes. There was still time for a third goal, but Union goalkeeper Joe Dent produced a great save to deny the visitors from the penalty spot. </span></p></div></div><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Matthew Ager broke the deadlock with a far post header, followed by a good finish from a tight angle from Michael Hogg. Two more goals in quick succession sealed the tie. Chris Devine was left unmarked to fire in, followed by Kieran Richardson netting the rebound after a Devine shot was saved.

Both groups made bids on the lease and after a meeting between both parties they decided to join forces and support Evenwood’s bid for the lease and the transfer of a new club. The FA granted permission for Evenwood Town to change the club's name to Spennymoor Town and they took their place in the Northern League 2nd Division for the 2005/06 season and that club has gone from strength-to-strength ever since.</span></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWVCmLARudKDNczY12RrfVwD1IhE2-fgEp3jzxMimVDoyqP1rE8ATFWzesZrB6OO-OqpxGPY5RDtZWMMqI_z8ZU5xy-ZX74Xaklwgn460qls4gkeFJiVwWMNhK2xITlPtcunCUuTwv7QhBgbRqERZ2Nitzns2DgFOLMncbTerk74Ednzk6hNTz/s4080/20231007_133153.heic" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3060" data-original-width="4080" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWVCmLARudKDNczY12RrfVwD1IhE2-fgEp3jzxMimVDoyqP1rE8ATFWzesZrB6OO-OqpxGPY5RDtZWMMqI_z8ZU5xy-ZX74Xaklwgn460qls4gkeFJiVwWMNhK2xITlPtcunCUuTwv7QhBgbRqERZ2Nitzns2DgFOLMncbTerk74Ednzk6hNTz/w400-h300/20231007_133153.heic" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijIasnBaSbmGpCXqitMzNwESIU7w64iILhecI5T8rT9bDsQHzhjLKtI0GtoBuZMhRCTmRHF6qQXDmcut9AoTNBPAl4wfZ2pZg0nP69cN-OHYHOveZSfsrW_Sk7OeaEUDQ9eE3if-ybIBjbbxrLrEeyDVAV1dqwirkbyjq42LLOK-4-rnvfjZrq/s4080/20231007_133224.heic" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3060" data-original-width="4080" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijIasnBaSbmGpCXqitMzNwESIU7w64iILhecI5T8rT9bDsQHzhjLKtI0GtoBuZMhRCTmRHF6qQXDmcut9AoTNBPAl4wfZ2pZg0nP69cN-OHYHOveZSfsrW_Sk7OeaEUDQ9eE3if-ybIBjbbxrLrEeyDVAV1dqwirkbyjq42LLOK-4-rnvfjZrq/w400-h300/20231007_133224.heic" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMOiE6HYfNkoKIYYmuaw7EdL7A6BOu5PNACt90JjIpFzchuWbSNqlCwYFNcDcmHhWavFg9DaxIRvSFwajLkJjhWqdBF_d9xLVk0bH-w3pEXGpx_MVYfYmeQMcAsijn448AeLHmSYgutfVPPaTY0t0lQqO1vzHJjrGSmBa6InVZy0H9eh07zLER/s4080/20231007_133315.heic" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3060" data-original-width="4080" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMOiE6HYfNkoKIYYmuaw7EdL7A6BOu5PNACt90JjIpFzchuWbSNqlCwYFNcDcmHhWavFg9DaxIRvSFwajLkJjhWqdBF_d9xLVk0bH-w3pEXGpx_MVYfYmeQMcAsijn448AeLHmSYgutfVPPaTY0t0lQqO1vzHJjrGSmBa6InVZy0H9eh07zLER/w400-h300/20231007_133315.heic" width="400" /></a></div><p></p><p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255);">The Evenwood Town name was rekindled with the club playing in the Crook & District League.

Cancun were up against Tlaxcala, who were rooted at the bottom of the league having lost all six opening fixtures. This was quite evident in the first half as the Iguanas bossed the game but only had a one goal advantage. A cross from the right broke free in the box and a first time effort took a deflection off Ulises Rivera and found the corner of the net.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class="p" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan; padding: 0pt;"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia;">As the match progressed the visitors grew in confidence, missing three golden chances to draw level. During the first half the only efforts on goal from Tlaxvala were from a distance as they spotted the home keeper too far forward. With ten minutes remaining a wasteful opportunity from the hosts saw the ball cleared and picked up by Luis Araujo just inside the opponents half, and this time he fired over the stranded goalkeepers from distance to equalise. </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class="p" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255);

In the 35th minute Sonny Branighan toe poked the ball home from the edge of the box for their third, then Crammy Blue Star hit back before half time. Kia Bell rounded the ‘keeper in the 42nd minute, then he should have reduced the arrears just before the break, but was denied with a fine save from the United keeper. </span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan; padding: 0pt;"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #202122;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">The hosts were even better in the second half with Ryan Pickering adding the fourth and Micheal Strachan tapping in number five with still a quarter of the game remaining.

There were 12 yellow cards during the game and both teams were reduced to ten men following a 'handbags' incident. The away team comfortably saw out the game and should have won by a bigger score. </span><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial;

They fell behind when Owen Fieldsend was on hand to knock in a right wing cross, but a lovely 25 yard chip from Danny Ward brought them level early in the second half. Retford looked to have won it when Eyles teed up Alister Haydock at the back post, but with time running out the ball fell into the path of Agu, who fired into the roof of the net from close range. </span></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

After a Spoons breakfast in Wakefield, I visited the Polka Hop, Luis Bar @ Fernandes and the Wakefield Labour Club (AKA Red Shed) before heading to Horbury. I’m no stranger to Horbury having visited the town several times. stretching way back to 1975. While on a family holiday to Pontins with my mam, dad and little sister we met a family from Horbury who we stayed in touch with and remained friends with to this day. Although my parents are now gone, I’ve kept in touch with them via Facebook, so I made a surprise visit to the Firth family before the match. After leaving Sue & Brian’s I had time for a swift pint in the Calder Vale Hotel, before heading up to the ground. </span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="background: rgb(255,255,255); margin-bottom: 0.0000pt; margin-top: 0.0000pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan; padding: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0pt;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia;">I stayed in Horbury after the match to visit another two GBG pubs, namely Boons and the Cricketers Arms, before the onward return journey back to Leeds. I still had plenty of time for a few bevvies in the Lamb & Flag and the Duck & Drake, before jumping the bus back home. </span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="p" style="background: rgb(255,255,255); margin-bottom: 5.0000pt; margin-top: 0.0000pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia;"><span style="font-size: medium;">On a day when everything went according to plan, I knew it must have been too good to be true. There were problems within the Megabus network with a broken down coach, so I got home later than expected, but it didn’t put a dampener on a thoroughly enjoyable day.</span></span></p>Shaunhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14248307280874291642noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31627570.post-73652435509138589202023-07-31T20:10:00.005+02:002023-07-31T20:26:51.615+02:00UCL Double<p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 12pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><b><u><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #202122; font-family: Georgia;">Sunday 30th July 2023</span></u></b></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #202122; font-family: Georgia;">As I mentioned in a previous post - my job is destroying my ground ticking career.

They went two up through Lucus Cotterill and a bullet header by Jammy Lloyd, but Holywell replied with a shot from Biggs going in off the post. The two goal lead was restored in the 69th minute when a goal by Elliot King was finally giving after much dispute between ref and lino. The visitors struck again when York rifled in from the edge of the box to make it 3-2. With five minutes remaining, Newark got their fourth when a George Asplin cross from the right went in off the defender, and with time running out a flicked header from Holywell sub Faulkner made it 4-3 at full time.</span> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjpx1Dtf5PXZ-XlJpadcbcFgQn1rymOIcaDQWK3vNBJwkBwbojpYYLoevKMoY9vJZtz4SLKXdIS0rezgqEKPm9dmmOZW3LTkMj635wFTmcmPhv2tONpMRCUWmsqDXh3VdWiNJqVapPi0TIo4oz-BYBJEdQF4sHG-ppVANPY6YWTolkZjBM4wS7/s4096/20230730_150407.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3072" data-original-width="4096" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjpx1Dtf5PXZ-XlJpadcbcFgQn1rymOIcaDQWK3vNBJwkBwbojpYYLoevKMoY9vJZtz4SLKXdIS0rezgqEKPm9dmmOZW3LTkMj635wFTmcmPhv2tONpMRCUWmsqDXh3VdWiNJqVapPi0TIo4oz-BYBJEdQF4sHG-ppVANPY6YWTolkZjBM4wS7/w400-h300/20230730_150407.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtGp9yd3G5kcGjdku4U8DUUDfaBXKecW1czSsL9H3NuZSBALAd01v-jD6m0NtpxWlhrNmv1ibHj8lbmUuypMmXefoOoraMke7HhrqCq1kEZtaBZWVYA3pRkyVqPy9Pbl94MaFL4EJfPAWe4y2MtpthS4zYzXI8oXIzPshO_3zfikgHhlS1wi_C/s4096/20230730_150910.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3072" data-original-width="4096" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtGp9yd3G5kcGjdku4U8DUUDfaBXKecW1czSsL9H3NuZSBALAd01v-jD6m0NtpxWlhrNmv1ibHj8lbmUuypMmXefoOoraMke7HhrqCq1kEZtaBZWVYA3pRkyVqPy9Pbl94MaFL4EJfPAWe4y2MtpthS4zYzXI8oXIzPshO_3zfikgHhlS1wi_C/w400-h300/20230730_150910.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjV0AvFD5Wm9IX3B_C01mUiJIlOYpKDpcsZ4dZhau8mA0DdLbGdVvXtXmxw_PTh9FZhZxOHZhE9uUWdYqWzDEfgVXJyWYDytn1zySD2wlNEaQ7hMbTkxYoKp5igrHjr_NTnVhTJJgNjlRJlEO8xl8IQAQ8yHQxaSlBYJaTHLfsZiUkq_0mxXFdW/s4096/20230730_151216.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3072" data-original-width="4096" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjV0AvFD5Wm9IX3B_C01mUiJIlOYpKDpcsZ4dZhau8mA0DdLbGdVvXtXmxw_PTh9FZhZxOHZhE9uUWdYqWzDEfgVXJyWYDytn1zySD2wlNEaQ7hMbTkxYoKp5igrHjr_NTnVhTJJgNjlRJlEO8xl8IQAQ8yHQxaSlBYJaTHLfsZiUkq_0mxXFdW/w400-h300/20230730_151216.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><p></p>Shaunhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14248307280874291642noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31627570.post-11603703800532646192023-07-14T19:10:00.002+02:002023-07-14T20:50:50.357+02:00Skool Nights<p class="p" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #202122; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12pt;">Nowadays I seem to watch more matches at schools than at proper football grounds.
