He's behind you!!

Saturday 25 September, Ipswich Town Sheffield Wednesday - League One, Portman Road 

Time wasting Wednesday were caught out by a last minute goal that would have been more at home on the stage at the Regent in the Christmas Panto.

Great Lines, hidden gem

 Friday 24 September 2021, Royal Engineers AFC 2 Royal Signals FC 1- Massey Trophy, Great Lines

Friday morning football and the hidden gem of 'Great Lines' - the home of Royal engineers sport. Above Chatham, a cricket ground a Naval monument and then a tree lined football ground - I certainly hope to go back.

Not where I planned!

Wednesday 22 September 2021, Thame United Reserves 3 Amersham Town 2 - Spartan South Midlands League, Division 1, ASM Stadium

Wednesday evening off, only new ground is west side of London, but i go for it, jams on M25, but cut through London arrive to watch Kensington and Ealing Borough with 45 minutes to spare! trouble is lights off, game off - British airways, the opponents hit by Covid!

Check the app, and making it into Oxfordshire and Thame United with 2 minutes to spare.

It may look like a Reserve team, but the United reserves were a separate club till the Summer, Thame Rangers but then all the Thame clubs joined together, great sporting complex, numerous pitches, nice bar and at least the main pitch is grass! Trouble is the stand is till to far from the pitch, so not where i expected to end up, but a nice ground and a cracking game with some good goals. 

Could not buy a win!

Tuesday 14 September 2021, Ipswich Town 1 West Ham United Under 21s 2 - Portman Road, Papa John's Trophy

Some old  (pre Cook players), some new, some youngsters - mix them all together and still can't beat a team of kids from West Ham!

Unexplainable

 Saturday 11 September 2021, Ipswich Town 2 Bolton Wanderers 5 - League One, Portman Road

Not needed in Football

Saturday 4 September 2021, FC Parson Drove 0 Huntingdon Town 3 - Eastern Counties League, Division One, North , Main Road

Red card after a few minutes, almost a second red card a few minutes later, FC Parson Drove seem to be struggling to make the move up to Step 6 football work.

But maybe the poor discipline on the pitch may have something to do with their manager, who also got a yellow card, but taht did not stop him spending the whole first half abusing, the Ref, the Lino and anyone else within earshot - not a a great advert for what looked like other than him, a well run club.

Sunny and a win!

Friday 3 September 2021, Ipswich Town Under 23s 3 Wigan Athletic Under 23s 0 - Professional Development League, Portman Road.

Easy win for Ipswich with Wigan only really troubling the home team in the last 10 minutes. Both had young teams out with the Ipswich third keeper, Holy the only player with considerable league experience. , Ipswich on top from the start but only one goal to show for it at half time, it was in the second half where their domination told, with two further goals.
