LEAGUE GAME 18^TH MARCH 2012

WHALEY BRIDGE JUNIORS 0 ‘V’ REDDISH NORTH END BLUES 10

Today the u12s blues had a long drive to Whaley bridge juniors. when we got there the pitch was being played on and it looked muddy but we got our game going, we kicked off 15 mins early at the request of the ref, not everyone had turned up so we started with 10 men. We are playing well and have been for a while now so it was not surprising we managed to play until the others turned up. We were soon at full strength and scoring goals we were 7-0 up By half time. second half we changed it a bit as the game was won so we let the boys drift around a bit we scored 3 more in the second half it should have been more but we were happy enough with the outcome.

 Man of the match Dylan.  

Goals Liam 4, Rooney 3, Dylan 2 and James 1

HALF TIME AND WE KNEW WE WOULD HAVE TO SCORE AGAIN AS IT WAS SO TIGHT. THE SECOND HALF WAS JUST AS HARD AS THE FIRST IT WENT END TO END AGAIN SEAN PULLED OFF SOME FANTASTIC SAVES TO KEEP US IN THE GAME WE HAD FREE KICKS, CORNERS AND A PENALTY BUT WE COULDN’T FINNISH IT OFF. CHAPEL HAD CHANCES TO EQUALISE MANY TIMES AND RIGHT AT THE END ROONEY HEADED THE BALL OFF THE LINE STRAIGHT INTO SEANS HANDS THE WHISTLE BLEW FOR THE END OF THE GAME.

HOME LEAGUE GAME 27/11/11 

REDDISH NORTH END 2 ‘V’ GLOSSOP NORTH END 2 

ALL I CAN SAY IS THAT TODAYS GAME WAS A JOY TO WATCH. TWO VERY GOOD TEAMS PLAYED THEIR PART IN A VERY GOOD GAME OF FOOTBALL. WE KNEW GLOSSOP WERE A GOOD TEAM THEY ARE TOP OF THE LEAGUE WINNING ALL OF THEIR GAMES SO FAR. WE GOT BACK TO WINNING WAYS LAST WEEK IN THE CUP AND WORKED ON A FEW THINGS AT TRAINNING DURING THE WEEK WHICH PUT US IN GOOD STEAD FOR THIS GAME.  

WE KICKED OFF AND PRESSED GLOSSOP BACK WE WERE ALL PLAYING WELL PASSING AND MOVING LOOKING GOOD BUT GLOSSOP AREN’T TOP FOR NOTHING THOUGH, THEY STARTED THE SAME AS US AND WE WERE SOON END TO END BOTH TEAMS PLAYING FANTASIC FOOTBALL. BOTH OUR DEFENCES WERE TOUGH NOT LETTING THE MIDFIELD OR FRONT MEN ANY WHERE NEAR THE GOAL, GLOSSOP DREW FIRST BLOOOD THOUGH A FREE KICK OUT SIDE THE BOX WAS WELL STRUCK AND FOUND THE BACK OF THE NET 0-1. WE PLAYED ON AS BEFORE STRONG AND WILLING AND SOON ENOUGH WE GOT OUR JUST REWARDS LUKE BROKE THROUGH AND SCORED A WELL WORKED GOAL 1-1. 

NO NEED FOR A HALF TIME CHAT THE TEAM WERE DOING EVERYTHING WE HAD ASKED OF THEM SO JUST A PAT ON THE BACK WAS GIVEN. 

SECOND HALF WAS PLAYED WITH THE SAME PACE AND WITH THE SAME CONTROL AS IN THE FIRST HALF, GLOSSOP FOUND THE NET AGAIN 2-1 BUT WE SCORED AND THE GAME FINNISHED 2-2. WITHOUT GOAL LINE CLEARENCES BY LEWIS AND MATTHEW WE WOULD HAVE HAD TO CHASE THE GAME BUT I THINK WE WOULD STILL HAVE GOT SOMETHING OUT OF IT THOUGH WITH THE TEAM PLAYING SO WELL.  I COULD WRITE TWO PAGES ABOUT THIS GAME BUT STEVE AND I WERE SO EXCITED WE CANN’T REMEMBER EVERYTHING THAT WENT ON SO THIS WILL DO.  

A VERY STRONG TEAM PERFORMANCE TODAY. A TEAM IS NOT JUST THE 11 ON THE PITCH IT’S EVERY ONE THAT MAKE A TEAM.

 GOALS: LUKE 1, MARCO 1 

MEN OF THE MATCH: EVERY ONE BUT SEAN AND LEWIS WERE THE CHOSEN TWO.

 ROSE HILL ROVERS 0 ‘V’ REDDISH NORTH END BLUES 2

 WE PLAYED IN THE FIRST ROUND OF THE CUP TODAY MEETING A TEAM IN OUR OWN DIVISION. AN EARLY KO TODAY BUT WE WERE ALL THERE READY TO GO, EVERY ONE WARMED UP AND WERE IN A JOLLY MOOD.

WE KO AND STARTED BRIGHTLY PUSHING ROSE HILL BACK WE PASSED THE BALL GREAT ON A LUMPY PITCH AND HELD THE BALL NOT LETTING ROSE HILL PLAY. WE WERE MAKING CHANCES FOR THE FRONT MEN THE DEFENCE WERE SOLID ROSE HILL DIDN’T GET ANY CLEAR CUT CHANCES IN THE FIRST HALF JUST A COUPLE OF LONG RANGE. THE SECOND HALF FOLLOWED THE FIRST WE WERE IN CONTROL TODAY WE JUST NEED TO SCORE MORE TO FINNISH TEAMS OFF. SEAN WANTED TO TAKE A PENALTY SO I GAVE HIM HIS CHANCE THIS WEEK WHICH HE SCORED COOL AS A CUCUMBER. LIAM SCORED AGAIN IT WOULDN’T BE SUNDAY IF HE DIDN’T SCORE.

REDDISH NORTH END ‘V’ CHAPLE TOWN JUNIORS

 AWAY GAME 6 November 2011

 CHAPEL TOWN JUNIORS 2 ‘V’ REDDISH NORTH END BLUES 2

 WE HAVE MADE MANY CHANGES FROM LAST YEAR, WE NOW HAVE TWO TEAMS AS LAST YEARS TEAM BROKE IN TWO, SOME STAYING WITH ME AND NEW COACH STEVE F IN THE BLUES AND HALF GOING TO THE YELLOWS WITH STEVE W AND NEW COACH ANDY. WITH BOTH TEAMS GOING REALLY WELL IN THE LEAGUE AND CUP THIS WOULD BE OUR STRONGEST TEST SO FAR FOR US BLUES. WE KNOW CHAPEL ARE STRONG AND DON’T KNOW WHEN THEIR BEATEN THEY JUST KEEP COMING WHEN THEIR WINNING OR LOSING IT WAS TO MAKE A V.GOOD BUT TOUGH GAME.

 FIRST HALF
WE TRAVELLED 45 MINUTES TO CHAPEL EN LE FRITH FOR TODAYS GAME WE HAD TALKED IN TRAINING ABOUT HOW TOUGH TODAYS GAME WAS GOING TO BE. EVERYONE TURNED UP SO THANKS MUMS AND DADS. K.O WAS AT 2PM AND THE SUN WAS SHINING DOWN, THE PITCH WAS A LITTLE MUDDY AS IT WAS PLAYED ON EARLIER THAT MORNING. WE K.O AND GOT INTO OUR STRIDE STRAIGHT AWAY CHAPEL ASLO HIT THEIR STRIDE AT THE SAME TIME SO WE BOTH WERE PLAYING SOME LOVELY FOOTBALL PASSING AND RUNNING WITH THE BALL ABSOLUTLY A JOY TO WATCH.  CHANCES FELL TO BOTH SIDES WITH LUKE TRYING HIS LUCK ON MANY OCCASIONS BUT THEIR KEEPER KEPT HIM OUT ALSO SEAN WAS ON FIRE TODAY COMING OFF HIS LINE LIKE A BULLET STOPPING THEIR ATTACKS DEAD. WHEN CHAPEL MANAGED TO BREAK THROUGH AND GET PASSED SEAN JUST ONCE REECE WAS THERE CLEARING THE BALL OFF THE LINE. THE WHISTLE BLEW FOR THE END OF THE FIRST HALF.

 A QUICK AND EXCITING HALF. NO NEED FOR ANY HALF TIME CHAT JUST TO MAKE A FEW CHANGES TO GIVE OTHERS A GAME.

 SECOND HALF
CHAPEL KICKED OFF THEY HAD A PLAN FOR THE SECOND HALF GET THE BALL WIDE AND ATTACK. BOTH SUBS GOT GOING STRAIGHT AWAY AND WE CARRIED ON PLAYING JUST THE SAME AS WE DID IN THE FIRST HALF. WE WENT UP AND DOWN THE PITCH UNTIL A GREAT BALL FOUND LEWIS THROUGH ON THE KEEPER AND WITH A SURE FOOT BLASTED THE BALL PAST THE KEEPER INTO THE BACK OF THE NET 0-1. WE KICKED ON FROM HERE AND WE PLAYED AND PLAYED, THE TEAM WAS GREAT WE GOT THE BALL FORWARD AT EVERY OCCASION AND LEWIS FOUND HIMSELF WITH THE BALL AT HIS FEET IN THE BOX 0-2 WE WERE FLYING. I MADE MORE CHANGES PUTTING ON THE LADS WHO HADN’T GOT ON YET ( IF YOU TRAVEL THIS FAR YOU SHOULD GET PITCH TIME ). AS I HAD SAID CHAPEL ARE A TEAM WHO PLAY TO THE END THEY GOT A FREE KICK OUTSIDE THE BOX THEY SHOT ONE IN BUT IT WAS TO HOT FOR SEAN TO HANDLE BUT HE MADE THE SAVE AND ONE OF THEIR PLAYERS WAS THERE TO JUST SLOT IT IN 1-2. WE HAD A NERVY FIVE MINS TO THE END THEY WERE PUMPING BALLS FORWARD AND RUNNING THROUGH, SEAN CAME OUT TO CLAIM A BALL AND THEIR PLAYER LED WITH HIS STUDS AND CAUGHT SEAN IN THE FACE AND KNEE HE WAS OBVIOUSLY HURT SO I RAN ON AND GAVE HIM THE BIG SPEECH WE NEED SEAN B ALL THE TEAM NEEDS HIM! HE GOT UP WIPED THE MUD AND WATER OFF HIS FACE AND PLAYED ON. THEY KEPT COMING AND WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A FOUL SEAN HAD THE BALL IN TWO HANDS WHEN THEY KICKED IT OUT OF THEM AND SCORED THEIR EQUALIZER 2-2

THE REF MUST HAVE MISSED IT! THEIR MANAGER/COACH RAN ON THE PITCH JUST LIKE FERGIE AND BRIAN KID HAD AT MAN U YEARS AGO, HE MUST HAVE BEEN V.HAPPY (‘;’). ANYWAY BOTH TEAMS PLAYED THAT WELL EVERYONE WAS DELIGHTED WITH THE DRAW.

 I KNOW IF WE PLAYED WITH OUR STRONGEST 11 WE MIGHT HAVE WON BUT WE’RE A TEAM AND SQUAD SO WE GIVE EVERYONE A GAME. TODAY WAS A JOY BOTH STEVE AND I ENJOY COACHING YOU BOYS. JUST SOMETIMES WE WANT YOU TO TRY A LITTLE HARDER AT TRAINING LETS GIVE IT A TRY HEY. WELL DONE EVERY ONE.

 REDDISH NORTH END BLUES 3 ‘V’ APOLLO JUNIORS ROCKETS 0

 A LOVELY DAY FOR FOOTBALL WE ARE GOING REALLY WELL THIS SEASON PLAYING SOME GREAT FOOTBALL AND ALL THE TEAM HAVE A GREAT UNDERSTANDING WITH EACH OTHER.

WE KICKED OFF EARLY TODAY AT 12:30 AS THE YELLOWS HAD GAME LATER ON BUT EVERY ONE WAS THERE WE GOT GOING AND WE WERE A LITTLE SLOW OUT OF THE BLOCKS OUR GAME PLAN WAS TO ATTACK STRAIGHT AWAY BUT WE HAD TO GROW INTO THE GAME. WE SOON HIT OUR STRIDE THOUGH PUSHING APOLLO BACK INTO THEIR HALF MAKING CHANCE AFTER CHANCE BUT THE POST AND APOLLOS DOGGED DEFENDING KEPT THE SCORES GOAL LESS AT HALF TIME.

 I ASKED FOR MORE IN THE SECOND HALF, WE NEEDED TO SCORE TO BREAK APPOLO DOWN AND TO GET ANOTHER WIN.

 THE SECOND HALF WAS BETTER NOT OUR BEST FOOTBALL THOUGH APOLLO HAD MOST OF THEIR PLAYERS BEHIND THE BALL SO THERE WASN’T ALOT OF SPACE TO PLAY. A LITTLE PANIC SET IN TRYING TO FORCE PASSES AND SHOTS STEVE AND I TOLD THEM TO CALM DOWN AND PLAY THEIR OWN GAME SOON ENOUGH WE GOT THE BREAK THROUGH CALLUM SCRAMBLED THE BALL INTO THE NET 1-0. WE PUSHED ON AND WENT ON TO SCORE 2 MORE.

THIS GAME COULD HAVE BEEN A BIG SCORE TODAY BUT THE BALL JUST DIDN’T FIND THE BACK OF THE NET THIS WEEK.

16/10/2011 Home v Reddish Villa.

HOME GAME 16 October 2011 METRO LEAGUE CUP

REDDISH NORTH END BLUES 7 ‘V’ REDDISH VILLA 1 

TODAY WAS A LOCAL DERBY, WE MET REDDISH VILLA FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME IN THE FIRST ROUND OF THE CUP. OUR RESULTS OF LATE HAVE BEEN GOOD SO WE ENTERED THIS MATCH WITH GREAT TEAM SPIRIT. BOTH TEAMS HAD PLAYERS WHO KNEW EACH OTHER, GO TO SCHOOL TOGETHER AND EVEN TWIN BROTHERS ON THE DIFFERENT SIDES BUT WE WANTED TO WIN TODAY AS BRAGGING RIGHTS IN THE PLAYGROUND ARE HUGE.

 WE KICKED OFF BANG ON 2PM A GREAT DAY AND PITCH FOR A FANTASTIC GAME OF FOOTBALL AND WE WERE NOT DISAPPOINTED FROM THE FIRST WHISTLE VILLA CAME STRAIGHT AT US PUSHING DOWN THE WINGS. THEY LOOKED STRONG AND MENACING TO START TROUBLING OUR DEFENCE, CATCHING US COLD POOR ANDREW GAVE THE BALL AN AIR KICK BUT HIS MOMENTUM CAUSED HIM TO CATCH THE WINGERS FOOT AND HE WENT DOWN ‘PENALTY’ SEAN DID HIS BEST BUT THEY DISPATCHED THE BALL INTO THE BACK OF THE NET 0-1. THE DEFENCE JUST DUSTED THEMSELVES DOWN AND WERE READY TO GO AGAIN. WE DIDN’T REALLY MAKE ANOTHER MISTAKE AT THE BACK ALL GAME BUT THEIR AGAIN NEITHER DID THE WHOLE TEAM WE STEPPED IT UP A GEAR AND WITH CHANGES ALL GAME ROLLING SUBS ON AND OFF WE FOUND THE BALANCE WE STRIVE FOR WITH THIS WE TOOK CONTROL AND SCORED TWICE IN THE FIRST HALF MAKING IT 2-1 AT HALF TIME. A GOOD TEAM TALK AND I ASKED FOR AT LEAST TWO MORE GOALS TO KILL OFF THE GAME.

 IN THE SECOND HALF WE WENT FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH PLAYING GREAT FOOTBALL PASSING AND MOVING JUST LIKE WE TRY AT TRAINING. THE GRASS WAS A LITTLE LONG TODAY SO NOT EVERYTHING CAME OFF BUT WE PLAYED THROUGH AND WE SCORED FIVE MORE GOALS IN THE SECOND HALF. DON’T GET ME WRONG VILLA DIDN’T JUST SIT BACK AND WATCH THEY TRIED BUT TODAY WE WERE JUST TOO STRONG FOR THEM. WELL DONE TO ALL THE BOYS MAYBE I DON’T HAVE TO SHOUT TO LOUD ANYMORE BUT JUST LET US SEE. THE BOSS

HOME GAME 9^TH October 2011

REDDISH NORTH END BLUES 2 ‘V’ WHALEY BRIDGE JUNIORS 1

 TODAYS GAME WAS TOUCH AND GO IF IT WAS GOING TO BE PLAYED. BAD WEATHER ALL WEEK AND THE PITCH BEING PLAYED ON BEFORE OUR GAME MADE IT A DOUBT. I MADE THE DECISION WE WOULD PLAY AND MAYBE IT WAS THE WRONG ONE AS THE GAME WAS VERY SCRUFFY. THE PITCH SOON GOT VERY MUDDY AND SLIPPY BUT BOTH TEAMS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. WHALEY HAD BEEN BEATEN HEAVILY IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS BUT TODAY THEY LOOKED SHARP. WE KO AND PRESSED THEM BACK BUT WE COULDN’T GET ANYTHING GOING, THE WIND AND RAIN WAS NASTY I HAD A BIG COAT AND TROUSERS ON AND EVEN I WAS SOAKED. WE SCORED A GREAT GOAL LIAM STRIKING ONE IN THE TOP CORNER WITH HIS LEFT FOOT. THE GAME FOLLOWED ON BUT WHALEY SCORED A GOOD EQUALIZER MAKING A GAME OF IT. THE GAME WAS SCRAPPY PLAYERS SLIPPING IN THE MUD AND GETTING VERY WET AND MUDDY BUT BEFORE HALF TIME LIAM POPPED UP AGAIN WITH HIS SECOND. AT HALF TIME WE HAD A CHAT AND WE MOVED A FEW PLAYERS AROUND.

THE SECOND HALF JUST MATCHED THE FIRST BUT JUST ONE TO NOTE WAS A MATCH WINNING SAVE BY JAMES. THE GAME FINISHED 2-1 AND A WIN IS A WIN. I WAS VERY VOCAL THIS WEEKEND WITH CERTAIN PLAYERS AND PROBABLY WAS TO HARSH SO IF YOU THINK IT WAS YOU SORRY.

 ON A VERY LARGE PITCH IN WYTHENSHAW WE PLAYED ANOTHER CLOSE GAME IN OUR DIVISION. WE’VE PLAYED SOME GREAT GAMES WITH LISBON AND THIS WAS NO EXEPTION. WITH THE GAME STARTED WE TOOK A VERY EARLY LEAD STUNNING LISBON INTO THE GAME BUT WE GAVE THEM TO MUCH ROOM ON THE EDGE OF THE BOX AND THEY SCORED WITH A FIZZING TOE POKE. THE GAME WAS TOUGH BOTH TEAMS PLAYING PHYSICAL FOOTBALL BUT IT WAS US WHO BROKE AND LEWIS SCORED HIS SECOND OF THE GAME. THE HALF FINNISHED 2-1 TO US.

THE SECOND HALF TOOK A DIFFERENT TURN AND WE LET LISBON DOMINATE FOR LONG SPELLS. THEY STRUCK BACK EARLY INTO THE SECOND HALF THEN WE BOTH HAD CHANCES AT 2-2 WITH THE GAME GOING FROM END TO END IT WAS LISBON WHO GOT THE BREAK THROUGH AND STRUCK THE FINAL BLOW FINNISHING THE GAME 3-2 TO LISBON.
