Eurosoccer Nottinghamshire Senior League: Premer Division
SOUTHWELL CITY RESERVES FC 0 FCV GRACE DIEU 3
A few reasons for popping along to Brinkley today, was Id not seen Southwell Reserves fvor a couple of seasons and also to present FCV Grace Dieu with the Eurosoccer Team of the month presentation photo shot for last month before the game.
Whilst having a cuppa, it was good to meet the 3 young officials and have a quick chat, before making my way to the seated stand.
I was eexpecting this game to be a bit one sided as Grace went in to the match for 2025 having won all 12 games, whilst the Zebras of Southwell had only won 1 in the past 6 games.
The game kicked off at a lively passion from end to end and the visiting keeper had to be on his guard a couple of times and the positions in the league table didnt look as far as they actually were. Southwell was taking the game to the league leaders.
In the 29th minute, FCV's corner from the right hand side sailed in to the near edge of the 6 yard box, where it seemed to ping about, before HEW EMERY looped the ball in to the net to make it 1-0.
Southwell had a very good chance right on the stroke of half time, but it was palmed away by the visiting keeper.
The Scond Half started in a similar fashion as the first half with the ball going end to end and I was joined by Aslockton's CWO and her daughter for a chat and kindly donated £10 to the charity, which I must thank her for.
After 51 minutes, a trip inside the home penalty area, saw the referee Josh Stanley point to the spot, to which SPENCER WEIR DALEY stepped up and place in to the net to make it 2-0 to the league leaders.
This seemed to liven both teams up with both having some very good chances and some not, as one sailed over the bar and netting to hit someones car boonet in the car park.
Then joined me was Roger Rann who had a chat to me as he has published a third book about Arnold FC in the 1960's, he will be sending me al the details if anyone is interested in purchasing one, as Roger was one of Arnold's greats.
As the 90 minute, mark advanced in to injury time, I got on to my mobility scooter and as I put my camera down, like always someone will score and SPENCER WEIR DALEY scored with the last kick of the game.
A very good game played in the right manner and nice to see some players smiling as they played the game and good sportsmanship between the two clubs not only on the pitch but after in the clubhouse as well.
I must also say that all 3 Officials I felt had very good games
