REDSHAW AT THE DOUBLE AS SANTOS SLIP UP |
||||||||
| 2 GOALS BY NATHAN REDSHAW AND ANOTHER BY DAN FLYNN EARNED A COMFORTABLE VICTORY AGAINST THE MUCH FANCIED SANTOS. BS4 HAD TONNES TO WORRY ABOUT AS THEY LOST 10-0 TO LEAGUE CHAMPIONS BSXI. HOLDERS WOODLANDS HAD TO RELY ON PENALTIES AGAIN AND THE HANDS OF TNS TO BEAT A STUBBORN SAS WHO THREW AWAY A 2-0 LEAD IN EXTRA TIME. THE SANCTUARY MADE THE MOST OF HILLFIELDS EARLY MISSED PENALTY AS THEY RAN OUT 3-1 WINNERS TWO LATE GOALS FROM MARK AND NIGEL CANCELLED OUT RYCROFT'S FREE KICK EQUALISER. WIDCOMBE W REIGNED IN THE DERBY BATTLE THUMPING CORINTHIANS FOR SIX 6-2. KENSINGTON BAPTISTS WON ON DEBUT WINNING 3-2 AGAINST WELTON WHO ARE STILL TO REGISTER A WIN IN 2008. NEW BOYS BRISTOL PISTOLS WERE GUNNED DOWN 8-1 BY CHRISTCHURCH. | |||||||||

THORNBURY SINK OTHER BAPTISTS |
|||||||||
| A 10 men Thornbury showed their experience to win the first Battle of the Baptists Tournament winning all three games. Counterslip came second with two wins and Hillfields Beat Bs4 in the final game to claim third. The was controversy in the final game between Thornbury and Counterslip as Thornbury's winning goal was clearly offside, unfortunately the counterslip linesman was warming down and missed it. A draw would have handed Slip the tournament win. It was well organised and worked as a good warm up for the season. | |||||||||

Pick of the fixtures has to be the Widcombe Derby and the sizzler
between big Rivals Sanctuary and Hillfields in the cup. Opening day in Div 1 puts Slip with high hopes against champions BSXI and new boys Nailsea against Thornbury. Div 2 has some interesting games with hopefuls Hillfields against ex Div 1 stars Rock the pick. Can BS4 get their first points in the BCFA against Welton? |
