Greenie’s Greeting Mike Green

Tonight we extend a warm welcome to the players, officials and supporters of Needham Market FC and we hope you enjoy your visit before embarking upon a safe trip back to Suffolk later tonight.

Two games since my last notes and sadly, two defeats. Firstly was the FA Trophy defeat to

Barwell where, had we taken the chances created and our supply to our strikers been a little bit more clinical, we would be in the next round but instead, we were undone by a sucker punch by one time Premier League player Sylvain Ebanks-Blake and next up was Saturday’s disappointing defeat up at high flying Alvechurch. A goal down earl doors and we somehow go in at the break leading 2-1, thanks to Tom Wood and Gary Wharton. We couldn’t see the game out and sadly come into this game this evening hovering just one place above the dreaded drop zone however, a couple of wins would see us back into mid table, that’s how tight it really is this season.

I’ve managed to catch two cracking games this last week though, starting with a top of the

table clash in the Thurlow Nunn Youth League Cambridge division where our high flying youngsters held on to top stop with a pulsating match against Cambridge City. The game ended 2-2 and was a real credit to both teams (report should be elsewhere in this issue) and secondly was Saturday’s Kershaw Premier Division game where our Reserves were so unlucky not to come away with a deserved win against Ely City Reserves. Again, this game ended 2-2 with youngsters Owen Dunnett and Joe Rider among the goals. If the lads can keep up that level of performance for the rest of the season, they should finish the season much higher in the standings. Also, a huge well done to the Development Squad who won their first league game on Saturday, winning 1-0 at Hemingford United Reserves.

Hopefully our new online shop and ticket office will be up

and running later this week, in time for Black Friday, so keep an eye out on social media and the website for further details.

Back to tonight’s game then and another tough game but we welcome back Luke Knight and Dylan Williams into the fold so, please, play your part as the 12th man and help us get over the line for three very important points BE LOUD… BE PROUD… BE A SAINT

Greeny

It is now almost three years to the day since, on a cold and wet Saturday afternoon at Leicester City’s King Power Stadium, Jamie Vardy latched onto a Christian Fuchs through-ball before slotting a powerful low drive past Manchester United’s David de Gea. The significance of the goal, which saw Vardy break Ruud van Nistelrooy’s record of scoring in ten consecutive Premier League matches, was clear evidence of a footballer at the height of his powers.

Vardy’s rise from such humble Non-League beginnings to the bright lights of the Premier League has been well documented. From Stocksbridge Park Steels, via FC Halifax and Fleetwood Town - England recognition would follow off the back of his blazing run with Leicester City. Here was the ‘poster boy’ for what Non-League football could deliver. So much so, in fact, that scouts up and down the country are now looking for that next gem; a player with a price tag that wouldn’t even be picked up on most Premier League clubs’ balance sheets.

But while the new wave of Non-League stars continue to take their places in the higher leagues and beyond – former Kettering striker Calum Wilson’s call-up to the England squad being the latest example of such – the lack of managers being given their chance remains a cause of major frustration.

Scratch the surface and you can see some reasoning: if a club purchases a player for such a nominal fee - even the £1 million Leicester City paid Fleetwood Town for Vardy’s services in 2012 - there is so much to gain and so little to lose.

But taking a manager from the lower leagues, who is expected to make a team gel and manage players’ egos, well that’s a different challenge. And, where such appointments are concerned, chairmen and board members don’t want any egg on their faces.

That said, if Football League clubs could have a window into the work and lives of many Non-League managers, they would see so many astute footballing brains that are complemented with the key ingredient needed for success: hard work. Yet still our managers are being ignored, and if they are given a chance, it is invariably with a club that is swimming against the tide.

Paul Hurst’s recent ill-fated stint at Ipswich is a case in point. Despite a playing career where he chalked up to close to 500 games in the Football League with Rotherham United, Hurst cut his teeth in management in the lower leagues, working alongside Rob Scott at Ilkeston, Boston and Grimsby before taking the job with the Mariners on a full-time basis. He then moved to Shrewsbury before Ipswich came calling last May. With one of the lowest budgets in the Championship in a division that has become, pound for pound, arguably the toughest in Europe, the task at Portman Road was never going to be an easy one. It proved beyond Hurst, and now instead of celebrating the talents of a man who has gone from the Conference to the Championship in the space of two years, we are left scratching our heads as to when the next bright light from Non-League will be given the chance to shine.

Managers deserve greater support and patience to progress their careers. Non-League football has been recognised as the perfect breeding ground for players who develop the right attitudes for the task ahead, but those players are learning from some of the game’s most aspiring young managers. Like Vardy, there are some golden nuggets out there…

OPPONENT SPOTLIGHT

NEEDHAM MARKET FC Joined League: 1919 Chairman: Keith Nunn Website: www.needhammarketfc.co.uk Needham Market Football Club was officially formed in 1919 although records do indicate that games were played in the late 1890’s in the town.

The original home for the club was Young’s Meadow until a move to Crowley Park was the base until 1996. The club then moved and opened a new development called ‘Bloomfields’. With the passing away of former player Arthur Rodwell leaving the club some money and with obtaining a successful Lottery Grant, we purchased the land the club is now situated on. With a great deal of hard and prudent work by some very enthusiastic individuals, we now find ourselves situated in a facility that we totally own and the club is truly proud of.

The complex is named after club stalwart Derrick Bloomfield who has given more than 70 years service to the club. As well as being a player Derrick has held virtually every role in the club. To recognise his service the club awarded him a testimonial match when Ipswich Town Football Club visited the ground in 2004.

He was also presented with a long service award from The Football Association for his achievement.

When Needham Market Football Club first entered the Suffolk & Ipswich Football

League (then known as the Ipswich & District League), it was also the playing arena for Clacton Town, Harwich & Parkeston, Hadleigh United, Stowmarket Town, Sudbury Town (now known as AFC Sudbury), and Woodbridge Town.

Over the yeas the club has won many trophies with one of the most notable being crowned champions of the Senior Division of The Suffolk & Ipswich League in the 1995 / 1996 season. This coincided with the opening of ‘Bloomfields’ and a new chapter in the clubs history, as we then applied for promotion to the Jewson (then Ridgeons now Thurlow Nunn) League Division 1 which was duly accepted.

Other honours won by the club include The Suffolk & Ipswich League Cup in the 1977 / 1978 season and the 1979 / 1980 season. The Suffolk Football Association Junior Cup was won in the season 1984 / 1985 and a successful trip to Portman Road the home of Ipswich Town Football Club; saw the club victorious in The Suffolk Football Association Senior Cup in the season of 1989 / 1990 and again in the season of 2004 / 2005. The final was also reached in this competition in the seasons of 1970 / 1971, 1979 / 1980,

1998 / 1999 and 1999 / 2000, unfortunately having to settle for runners-up spot on each occasion.

The Reserve Team won The Suffolk & Ipswich Football League Reserves Division in the seasons of 1970 / 1971 and 1971 / 1972, and also The Suffolk & Ipswich Football League Intermediate B Division in the season of 1993 / 1994.

Division Three of The Suffolk & Ipswich Football League was also won in the seasons of 1985 / 1986 and 2003 / 2004.

After moving to the Essex & Suffolk Border League the Division Two title was won in the season of 1998 / 1999, and a year later came runners up in the League Cup losing out to Senior Division side Gas Recreation. The Reserve Team are currently playing in the Ridgeons Reserve League North Division.

The Third Team or A Team as they were known, won The Suffolk & Ipswich League Division Eight Championship in the season 1983 / 1984, and were also successful in winning the Orwell Cup in the seasons of 1992 / 1993 and 1995 / 1996. In the season of 1996 / 1997 they also won The Saul Charity Cup. On the subject of The Saul Charity Cup it is an honour to have been the inaugural winners of this competition when first

held in the season of 1935 / 1936. In the season of 2003 / 2004 they won Division Three of The Suffolk & Ipswich Football League and followed this success up a year later by winning Division 2 of The Suffolk & Ipswich Football League. This side also became the first A Team to win The Suffolk Football Association Primary Cup in the season of 2004 / 2005, and also became the highest placed A Team to reach Division One of The Suffolk & Ipswich Football League. The club no longer runs an A Team as most of the clubs young players now start in the reserve team.

After being in The Ridgeons League Division 1 for a number of seasons we finally finished as runners up in the season of 2004 / 2005. This was a big thing for the club and to the Manager at that time Mark Morsley for all his efforts in getting the club promotion.

In the clubs inaugural season in the Ridgeons Premier Division they finished in a very creditable 6th place, and had a good run in The FA Vase going out to eventual winners Nantwich Town 6-3 AET. Manager Mark Morsley left the club at the end of the season under good terms after being appointed Manager of AFC Sudbury who had been newly promoted to The Ryman League.

The club acted swiftly and appointed Danny Laws and Chris Tracey as joint managers for the 2006 / 2007 season. In their first season of Management they assembled a very young and

talented squad of players who gained experience and some notable results. The club won its first ever FA Cup tie when they defeated Desborough Town at home. In The Suffolk Football Association Premier Cup a record crowd of 750 saw Ipswich Town win 3-0 at ‘Bloomfields’, but the biggest achievement was finishing in fourth position in the Ridgeons League Premier Division on 81 points and also lifting The East Anglian Cup after beating Concord Rangers 2-1 in the final.

For season 2007 / 2008 Danny Laws was sole Manager after Chris Tracey decided to return to AFC Sudbury. This season proves to be fantastic for Danny and the players as the club moves to a new level making historic landmarks along the way. Finishing runners-up in the Ridgeons League Premier Division with a must win game on the last day of the season to first placed Soham Town Rangers needed. Unfortunately the game resulted in a 4-0 defeat. We were also losing semi-finalists in The FA Carlsberg Vase losing out to eventual winners Kirkham & Wesham. However Suffolk Football Association Premier Cup glory was achieved beating Leiston on penalties in the final held at Portman Road the home of Ipswich Town Football Club. Silverware was not finished there as victory for the first time in the Ridgeons League Challenge Cup beating Gorleston 2-1 in the final finished off the season on a high.

Another good season in 2008

/ 2009 for the club as a third place finish in the Ridgeons League Premier Division was achieved just missing out on 2nd place on the last day of the season. Consecutive Suffolk Football Association Premier Cup finals achieved losing 3-2 to Lowestoft Town in what was a very exciting game of football.

Having gone 2-0 down early on and somewhat looking out of the game, but the never say die attitude of the side were soon on level terms and only a last gasp penalty took the game away from extra time. A great run in The FA Vase once again this time going out to the lottery of a penalty shoot out to Chalfont St. Peter in the Quarter Finals.

Season 2009 / 2010 was the most successful in the clubs history. The 1st Team not only won The Eastern Counties League Premier Division for the first time, but also The Eastern Counties League – League Challenge Cup to make it a Domestic Double; a feat not achieved for some 15 years.

A third successive Suffolk FA Premier Cup Final was also achieved only to be defeated by a very strong Ipswich Town XI. However the team did not disgrace themselves and came away with their heads held high. For the second consecutive season, the Quarter Finals of the National FA Carlsberg Vase Competition were also reached only to once again be knocked out this stage.

The 2010 / 2011 Season saw a new chapter in Needham Market Football Clubs history as for the first time Step 4

Football awaited in the form of The Ryman League Division One North. The anticipation, optimism and confidence was very high at the start of the season but no one was getting carried away as consolidation in the league was the priority.

Well who would have thought the season we were to have.

Challenging at the top of the league for the whole season with East Thurrock United who would eventually go on and win the championship, but we would have another bite of the cherry as 2nd place was cemented in the league and a home semi-final play off.

Unfortunately we would go on to lose this match 3-1 to Brentwood Town which was very difficult to take at the time especially as we finished 18 points ahead of them in the regular playing season. A fourth consecutive Final appearance in the Suffolk FA Premier Cup was also to be achieved but unfortunately a 2-0 defeat would ensue to Ryman Premier Division side Bury Town.

Season 2011 / 2012 saw the club open its doors to a new venture as we introduced a full time Academy Programme for 16-18 year olds who would be studying for an NVQ in Sports Development half of the day and coached by Ex-Professional player Kevin Horlock the remainder of the day. In truth the scheme was a massive success with the lads on the scheme also forming our Reserve side who had an excellent season.

They finished runners up in the Ridgeons Reserve League North Division, Semi-Finalists in The Suffolk FA Senior

Reserve Cup and reached the 3rd Qualifying Round of The FA Youth Cup (the furthest the club had ever reached).

The future of this football club may well come from these up and coming players who will continue to develop and under their teaching, coaching and leadership the Academy will grow from strength to strength becoming very important to the legacy of the football clubs future. The First Team once again challenged for The Ryman League Division One North Title up until Christmas when a run of bad results ended the automatic promotion route but the club remained in the play off positions for the remainder of the season. We were top scorers in the division with 104 goals and finished 4th in the division. Victory in the play off semi-final away at Tilbury in shall we say a mammoth match!! set up a play off final 36 hours later at league runners up Enfield Town. In truth this was too short a turnaround and we were both physically and mentality drained unfortunately losing the game 1-0.

Season 2012 / 2013 was a very difficult one in comparison with the previous seasons in that Needham had a long barren spell without recording a win at Bloomfields until the New Year. The club did following his resignation from Leiston move quickly to get Mark Morsley in harness once more with Danny Laws. But with the lure of managing at a higher level Danny decided to take the vacant post at Leiston and Mark was forced to take on the responsibilities as Manager

earlier than he had originally intended. This did however give Mark the opportunity to assess the squad particularly the youngsters from the Academy.

It is fair to say that he found the quality of the lads excellent and rewarded some of them with contracts with the 1st Team.

This is a great testimony to the hard work put in by Kevin Horlock and the Academy staff.

Season 2013 / 2014 saw Needham achieve a number of major achievements for the club most notably reaching the 4th Qualifying Round of The FA Cup for the first time where we lost 1-0 to Cambridge United in front of a record 1,784 spectators. In the League we managed to clinch 5th place and a play off spot after winning 7-1 on the last day of the season. However we unfortunately lost the semi-final 1-0 to Witham Town who were eventual play off winners.

Season 2014 / 2015 was yet another historic one for the club as the 1st Team became Ryman League Division 1 North Champions sealing promotion to The Ryman Premier Division for the first time. A season long battle ensued with Harlow Town but the club managed to win the league courtesy of a professional, classy 5-0 victory away to Chatham Town on the final day of the regular season.

A first for the club also saw our Reserve Side compete at Step 6 Thurlow Nunn Division 1 for the very first time. Conducting ourselves very well we finished in a respectable 16th position having won 10 out of 12 points in the last 4 games of the season. The Youth Team had a great run in The FA Youth

Cup reaching the 1st Round Proper for the very first time only to bow our to Stevenage losing 4-3 in a pulsating game.

They did however provide more silverware for the club as they won The Thulow Nunn Youth Cup for the first time defeating Histon 3-1 to cap off a brilliant season for the football club.

Season 2015 / 2016 saw the 1st Team competing at Step 3 of The Football League Pyramid for the first time in the Clubs History. Having won the Ryman North Division the previous Season they were now playing in The Ryman League Premier Division, which turned out to be a very hard season compared to the previous one. Survival was the main aim and this was achieved finishing in 20th position. The Reserve Team struggled in The Thurlow Nunn Division 1 League finishing bottom of the table with the Youth Team finishing in 3rd place in The Thurlow Nunn Youth League. Disappointingly both FA Competitions Cup & Trophy were exited at the first hurdle but once again the Youth Team had a good run in The FA Youth Cup. The 1st Teams second Season at Step 3 Season 2016 / 2017 saw them occupy a Play-Off Spot for virtually all of the season leading the table for several weeks along the way.

However results towards the end of the season saw them drop out of contention finishing in 9th place, but this was a great achievement compared to the previous season’s relegation battle.

The youngsters in the Reserve Team found life tough again in

The Thurlow Nunn Division 1 finishing third from bottom and the Under 18 Youth Teams both finished in 6th place in their respective leagues (Thurlow Nunn Central Division & Eastern Junior Alliance). Overall the Club is in a very good position both on and off the field with many exciting times ahead for everyone connected and involved with Needham Market FC. Season 2017 / 2018 was an indifferent year for the 1st Team with too many inconsistent results seeing the side in the bottom half of the table but always clear of the relegation area. The ethos of the Reserve Team was to continue to play youngsters and despite struggling physically at times the football played was very good and often complemented by the opposition. The midweek Under 18 Youth Team finished in mid table but could not finish their league campaign due to such a backlog of fixtures caused by the wet weather. The club increased its Youth section competing in the Eastern Junior Alliance League at U18, U16, U14 & U13 levels with a mixture of league and cup results.

Overall the Club is in a very good position with the completion of a New 3G Pitch and currently under construction a purpose built changing room block, toilets, disabled lift access and first floor conference facilities, café and a 3 sided veranda for viewing, a new league for the 1st Team & Reserve Team for the coming season and a greater extension to the clubs Youth Section and the

introduction of ladies teams so many exciting times ahead are ahead for everyone connected and involved with Needham Market FC.

James Carragher - Defender Another academy graduate who is making the progression from youth to senior football who impressed last season

when called upon, particularly at Dulwich when he settled in well at right back. I’m sure he will be pushing for a regular starting a lot by the end of the season.

Jake Dye - Defender Jake is a product of the successful Needham Market youth academy and has already played over 100 first team games and is still only 20. A natural defender Jake works hard to improve his game every season and he has a very bright future ahead of him.

FA TROPHY – SECOND ROUND QUALIFYING

St Neots Town This match was supposed to be about a football contest, but it turned out to be more about an over-zealous Referee.

The forgettable first half was dominated by the Referee who issued four yellow cards for offences not helped by the conditions thanks to a pre-match downpour, including two to visiting striker Massiah McDonald leaving his side to play for more than an hour with ten men. Boston Referee Alastair Wilson also dismissed one of the Barwell Managerial staff from the dugout and in the second half issued a second yellow card to Dylan Williams ten minutes from time balancing up the two sides. In addition to the two dismissals there were a further four yellow cards issued – three for the visitors – in a match that hardly boasted a single malicious challenge. One time million-pound Wolverhampton Wanders striker, 32 years old Sylvan Ebanks-Blake came off the Barwell bench at half time to fire his side to an unlikely FA Trophy victory claiming the only goal in a scrappy match between these two Southern League Central opponents. St Neots can have no real complaints because they had more than enough possession to make their numerical superiority count, but at present they are lacking quality in front of goal. In eleven matches at the Premier Plus Stadium they have managed only thirteen goals whilst on foreign soil they have notched just a goal a game in league and cup.

Manager Matt Clements had to make two team changes bringing in utility man Matt Miles for the suspended Johnny Herd and with loanee Ben Worman unavailable he gave Claudio Ofosu a starting berth for only the second time in the last seven matches.

Barwell

It was a bright enough start with both keepers in action in the first five minutes – Harry Reynolds saving well from Liam Canavan and Dion Sembie-Ferris seeing his effort pushed clear

by Liam Castle. A free kick by Dylan Williams following the first McDonald booking saw Tom Wood just inches from converting the low cross and then a second Sembie-Ferris effort was deflected for a corner. Brady Hickey squandered the visitors best first half chance firing over the bar with the St Neots defence split, but further bookings saw the rhythm of the match deteriorate. Castle did have to leave his line swiftly to save at the feet of Nabil Shariff and a snap shot by Russell Short was competently handled by the keeper. Barwell could have taken a first half lead when they split the St Neots defence from a lengthy goalkeeper clearance six minutes before the break but Hickey volleyed wide when he should at least have tested the keeper. The half ended with a good move at the other end when the pace of Sembie-Ferris took him around his marker but at the near post, Dylan Williams’ header was over the bar.

A bold approach by Barwell immediately after the break laid the foundation for this result.

Despite being a man down they sent on Ebanks-Blake taking off a defensive midfielder and taking the game to St Neots. Jahvan Davidson-Miller outpaced the St Neots defence and drew Reynolds off his line but his clever chip towards goal was acrobatically cleared off the line by the covering Short. As the visitors continued to press Reynolds produced a top notch save to deny Hickey but that was St Neots chance to counter-attack and Williams had

1 a shot blocked and Shariff saw a looping header retrieved by the back-peddling Castle. Tom Wood then set up Sembie-Ferris on the right and his rising shot was well saved by the keeper and two more visiting players were booked for clumsy challenges. After 70 minutes Barwell sent on another attacking player and that proved to be the master stroke as within six minutes of his arrival substitute Nigel Julien won his way to the bye line to cross beyond the far post for Hickey to head back to Sylvan Ebanks-Blake to apply the lethal finishing touch. St Neots responded with Luke Knight bringing a good save from Castle and in a long period of seven minutes added time St Neots failed to produce a significant shot to bother the keeper. Now out of both National competitions St Neots must turn their attention to improving their precarious looking league position.

SOUTHERN LEAGUE CENTRAL PREMIER DIVISION

Alvechurch Having scored just twice in their last four league and cup matches, St Neots Manager Matt Clements had called for his side to rediscover their goalscoring touch as they now returned to their league programme. In their first ever meeting with Alvechurch they disappointingly fell behind early in the game before two late first half goals afforded them a 2-1 half time lead. Surely that would be sufficient to earn at least a valuable point – but no. Sloppy defending after the break gifted their hosts with two goals and all three points, and St Neots slipped a further place in the league table to nineteenth, now only three points above the relegation zone. It was a multi-changed line up for this match with two enforced absentees – Luke Knight and Dylan Williams – both sitting out a one match ban, and the Manager chose to reshape his attack leaving Dion Sembie-Ferris and Claudio Ofosu on the bench.

Into the side came Johnny Herd (after suspension), Dan Olaniran, Gary Wharton and loanee Lee Watkins. The side looked to have good shape but two defenders – Russell Short and Devante Stanley both departed injured and the side then seemed to suffer a loss of confidence and despite a late show of determined pressure they were unable to retrieve their single goal deficit.

From the first whistle it was a high tempo contest with chances at both ends of the field. St Neots with a 3-4-3 shape saw Tom Wood test home keeper Charlie Price from distance after five minutes and then a minute later the home side delivered sucker punch as Kieran Cook flicked home a Mitch Botfield cross at the near post. St Neots responded with Nabil Shariff seeing his shot deflected for a corner, but play

returned to the other end where Yusifu Ceesay saw his effort smothered by a defender, and Botfield robbed a defender but overran the ball as he bore down on goal. As the half wore on St Neots began to dictate the pattern of play and Taylor Parr’s neat back-header from a Johnny Herd throw was acrobatically tipped over the bar by Price. In a quick break by Alvechurch, Dave Bellis tried his luck from distance only to see his effort beat Harry Reynolds but rebound from a post. However, the spirited reply from the visitors deservedly had its reward when a neat square lay off by Gary Wharton set up man-of-the- match Tom Wood for his first league goal of the season.

Price then saved well at the feet of Nabil Shariff after good work

by Devante Stanley and Wood then almost scored again only to see his header from a corner, cleared off the line by Jamie Willetts. However five minutes before the break the industrious Gary Wharton took full advantage of home defensive hesitation to round the keeper and score from a narrow angle to afford St Neots a deserved half time advantage.

away. Then from a Tom Turton cross the defensive marking was wanting, allowing tall defender Kyle Morrison a free header to give Alvechurch that 3-2 advantage.

St Neots were stunned by this setback and mounted a series of counter attacks with Matt Miles firing over the bar and Dion Sembie-Ferris also off target after neat work by Lee Watkins.

Alvechurch on a counter then saw Turton get the ball in the net following a corner but an Assistant Referee flagged one of his colleague offside and it was left to Claudio Ofosu in the dying minutes to fire across the face of goal and leave St Neots their journey home wondering what might have been.

The second half began badly for the visitors as just two minutes poor cover in the defence allowed Kieran Cook too much space and he scored, also from an oblique angle to level the scores for a second time. St Neots had lost Russell Short at the break following a first half injury and after 57 minutes Devante Stanley was helped off the field after a collision had left him prone on the ground. With the versatile Tom Wood now switched into defence St Neots set about restoring their influence on the match but they were under pressure again when a Botfield free kick required the under-pressure Reynolds to punch

THURLOW NUNN YOUTH LEAGUE CAMBRIDGE DIVISION 2018/19

THURLOW NUNN YOUTH LEAGUE CAMBRIDGE DIVISION ST NEOTS TOWN U18 2 This was a pulsating encounter between the two best sides in the Division and it finished honours even. Leaders St Neots retained their top berth and their unbeaten at home in the league record, whilst their visitors Cambridge City remain unbeaten this season.

It was a match that was played at a tremendous pace with a high degree of commitment from each side with both going in front before the points were shared after 90 minutes, so there was plenty to engross St Neots best home attendance of the season. The visitors started in an explosive fashion dominating the early exchanges, but St Neots came back to enjoy a much greater share of the second half possession and thought they may have won until the late Cambridge equaliser.

St Neots weathered an early scare when goalkeeper Joe Burberry miskicked a clearance before pouncing on the ball in the opening minute, but the visitors were dictating play and went ahead on seven minutes

CAMBRIDGE CITY U18 2

when a swift attack on the left saw Jamie Judge cross to the far post for Robert Friel to force home. Burberry then had to save well from Henry Hall and Friel as Cambridge maintained their impressive start, but St Neots replied with Jacob Joseph firing over the bar and Markel Cousins forcing a good save from Toby Moring. Friel then shot over the bar when played clear by Jude White, but it was St Neots who finished the first half more strongly as Joseph volleyed over the bar after good work by Bradley Brown, and Cousins saw a shot blocked on the goal line following a Sammy Routs free kick.

Cambridge did create two early second half openings with White shooting off target after a pacey run that took him past two defenders, and Aaron Hiscock attacked on the left but saw his shot blocked by a defender. St Neots then took over with Routs having a shot deflected over the bar, and Nehemiah Goodridge going close with a shot from a corner. Cambridge were now

pushed back on the defensive and Moring despite being unsighted produced the save of the match to deny Cousins, pushing his low shot away at full stretch. He also saved a narrow-angled Joe Rider shot with his feet but was eventually beaten after 72 minutes by a neat Joseph header from a cross by substitute Tom Leagas.

Six minutes later St Neots took the lead as the impressive Cousins fed leading scorer Joe Rider to make it 2-1. However the lead was short-lived for two minutes later a rare Cambridge attack ended with the unmarked Aaron Hiscock heading Harvey Bullin cross past Burberry. There was no easing of commitment as both sides strove for a winning goal but a draw was a fair result.

St Neots: Burberry, Ferry, Goodridge, O’Hara, Rowland, Fulianty, Joseph, Brown (B), Rider, Routs, Cousins Sub used: Leagas.

Referee: Paul Gale
