New boys looking sharp

 Saturday 14 August 2021, Buckhurst Hill 5 Wivenhoe Town 1 - Eastern Counties, Div 1 South, Roding Lane

Short drive down the A12 to complete the division, found a work in progress off the pitch, but on the pitch, the hosts look like a team who will ne near the top of the division most of the season.

West Bergholt looking good

Saturday 22 July 2017, West Bergholt 3 Wivenhoe Town 0 - Pre-season friendly, Lorkin Daniell Sports Field

A short trip to North Essex for this pre-season friendly. Nice set up, pitch behind the village hall which had it's social club open - with a full bar!

The set up was not surprising but what was a slight surprise was that West Bergholt won the game quite easy. They play 2 divisions below Wivenhoe but today they looked the higher placed side, they played good passing football, looked more of a team and were far fitter.

For Wivenhoe, they have very  little time to get a team together, and on their showing today it may be a very bumpy season ahead.

Ten v Ten

Saturday 13 October 2012, Wivenhoe Town 3 Woodbridge Town 0, Thurlow Nunn Premier Division - Broad Lane

No justice in football - Woodbridge played some lovely neat football, with most of the play coming through Tom Trevivian (son of former ITFC coach - Peter) and Wivenhoe were lucky to be in the game at half time with Woodbridge also missing an early penalty. Only the Wivenhoe keeper, Richie Robins and their captain Tom Cutts stopping the Suffolk side from taking a deserved half time lead.

The second half still saw Woodbridge have most of the ball and play the best football but somehow Wivenhoe scored two quick goals then both teams ended up with 10 players after a short skirmish then Wivenhoe got a third goal.

Strange game football!
