The Hallucinating Goose Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Beverley Town 2-2 Athersley Recreation. A great comeback by Bev after being 2 down at halftime and having a penalty saved early in the second half. I must say I do think we are getting worse as the season is progressing. Far too much hoof ball and rushed plays. 162 souls braved the Arctic conditions and sideways rain to watch some live football which is always admirable! At home next week as well to Ollerton if I remember rightly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At home next week as well to Ollerton if I remember rightly. The short journey from my front door to Westfield in the Mid Sussex League. Today's opponents: Reigate Priory. So a Mid Sussex League match featuring zero teams from mid Sussex. Reigate Priory are an interesting one. Founded in 1870, they were one of the teams to buy a share of the first FA Challenge Cup and entered in 1871/2 (the first tournament). However, drawn away at Royal Engineers, they decided not to travel so the Engineers proceeded to the next round by walkover and became, in due course, the first losing finalists. Finished 2-2 today. We had a sin-binning, a straight red card and a fair bit of action. Crowd of about 40. Westfield will be expecting more when they eventually move into their much longed-for new ground next year. 1 Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day.

ivans82 Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Story about the Argentine goalie doing the rounds at the moment , apparently he asked his team mates for a minutes silence for Mbappe after the world cup final during their celebrations in the dressing room post match and posed with a doll depicting the player . Mbappes reply to this was "Celebrations are not my problem , i don`t waste energy on such futile things"..................says the Man shown screaming for all he was worth , then grinning like a chesire cat at Harry Kanes missed penalty .

Tommygilf Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Mo Salah currently holds the record for most goals in a 38 Game Premier League season with 32. Haaland is on 20 Goals with just the 23 games remaining... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Grandad actually saw Dean’s crazy last game of the season at Goodison Park against Arsenal where he claimed the record.

The Hallucinating Goose Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Well I certainly wouldn't have expected any team let alone Arsenal, to be 7 points clear at the top at this stage of the season. I'm keeping an eye on Newcastle, conceded the least goals, longest unbeaten run this season, longest winning streak, only lost 1 game but they are drawing too many at the moment.
