Monday 30 August 2021 - Southall 2 St Panteleimon 3 - Robert Parker Stadium, Combined Counties, Premier Division, North >
Wealdstone 0 Southend United 0 - Grosvenor Vale, National League
Ground just outside Ashford, close to the south of Heathrow Airport, couple of seated stands, one covered terrace and a bit of home made cover behind the goal, clubhouse outside with plenty of parking.
Game was 1st to 3rd, Southall started on top but after 19 minutes went behind and then it was the visitors who got on top and added a second to lead by two at half time. Second half saw Southall have most of the ball with St Paneleimon happy to sit back and hope to hit the hosts on the break. Southall got a goal back in the 66th minute with a fantastic long range shot from their skipper but within 5 minutes they found themselves conceding. Southall kept the pressure on and got a late consolation in injury time.
Great entertainment with some good skill on display and game was helped by a good set of officials. Nice club, who are hoping to move back to Southall. It was then a short drive north to Wealdstone.
0-0 but plenty of action, Southend hit the bar twice in the first half and were on top but Wealdstone will think Southend were lucky that their keeper did not see red for a foul just outside his box.Second half was a tighter affair with Southend coming closer to breaking the deadlock. Phil Brown was the butt of the wags in the crowd but took the abuse/heckling well.Liked the ground, and the club handled the large crowd well.
