Spartans pull off shock win over
Potterne B
DIVISION FOUR: Audley Spartans arrived at Northbrook to take on Potterne
'B' on the back of a heavy 21-1 defeat against leaders Witham Friary
last week with 13 players for what they thought would have been another
mauling but Audley produced one of the shock results of the last few
seasons as they gave from a goal down to claim a famous 3-1 win which
will go along way to erasing the memory of last weeks loss.
Potterne were quick out of the blocks and immediately piled the pressure
on the Spartans defence who managed to restrict the home team to long
range shots. Potterne should have taken the lead but wasted several good
chances. The Spartans battled well and Sam Baker was unlucky on a couple
of occasions. The first, he failed to connect properly with a Steve
Shipway through ball which was saved by the Potterne keepers' legs, the
second was a fiercely struck volley at the far post after a fine passing
move which saw Jason Forde cross the ball in for Baker to fire over the
bar from just inside the penalty box.
Potterne kept pressing forward and finally broke the deadlock on 41
minutes with a neat passing move that sliced through the Spartans
defence leaving Tom Mason with a simple tap in from close range.
The Spartans almost hit back immediately when Jason Forde made a fine
run round the Potterne defence and tried to pull the ball back.
Confusion reigned in the Potterne defence and the clearance was fired
across goal narrowly missing Sam Baker running in on the far post.
The second half started with the Spartans dominating the play and
pressing hard for the equalizer, they got their reward on 50 minutes
when an Alan Woodward free kick was turned in by Sam Baker at the far
post for his second goal of the season.
The Spartans continued to pile on the pressure on the Potterne defence
and Alan Woodward put the visitors ahead when he stretched to turn in a
Matt Blackmore shot. With the Spartans growing in confidence, the
Potterne players started to drop their heads and with 20 minutes to go,
Alan Woodward increased the Spartans lead when Sam Baker played a neat
ball in for Woodward to score his third goal in two games.
The Spartans began to sit back a bit to maintain their lead which
encouraged Potterne further forward and they came close to getting back
into the game when a fine long range effort hit the bar, came back and
hit keeper Stu Kofie in the Spartans goal on the back but the Potterne
striker following up was unable to force the ball home as Kofie managed
two excellent close range saves to deny a goal.
At the other end, Sam Baker has two further efforts cleared off the line
and Alan Woodward missed a good opportunity to secure his first ever hat
trick when he fired an indirect free kick inside the Potterne penalty
area well over the bar. Potterne continued to press forward and Kofie
was called upon several more times but the Spartans keeper was a match
to everything the Potterne strikers could throw at him.
Potterne were reduced to 10 men for the last 10 minutes after a tussle
for the ball with Spartans winger Richard Johnson led to Potterne player
throwing a punch which received a straight red from the referee. During
the last 10 minutes, Potterne pressed hard to try to get back into the
match but the Spartans defence held firm and denied Potterne any late
chances and held on to claim a well deserved victory.
This was a excellent all round team performance from every member of the
Spartans squad who played who deserved ever plaudit they will get for
the win which was unexpected but well deserved.
Corsham Park Rangers 1, Mash Tun Villa 1
Corsham Park Rangers had to come from behind to keep their unbeaten run
intact, but they had to settle for a point from their match at Leafy
Lane against Mash Tun Villa rather that the two they would have been
expecting. Corsham Park who lost the earlier meeting of the sides 1-0
had not lost since that game which Mash Tun had not won so they will
defiantly be the happier of the two teams following the draw.
After a scrappy but feisty first half it was Mash Tun who broke the
deadlock when Dale Rowland netted on 47 minutes, but Rob Elliott’s side
who were probably still celebrating the goal were pegged back a few
minutes later when Kevin Bance was upended in the area and Simon Young
duly dispatched the resulting penalty to earn Corsham Park a share of
the spoils.
FC Boroughs 2, Somerford FC 1
FC Boroughs completed a league double over Somerford FC but unlike the
previous meeting when they won 9-2 the return match was a lot closer as
Boroughs claimed a 2-1 success.
Liam Bailey gave Boroughs the lead which was cancelled out when Jason
Lovell leveled for Somerford. Paul Baines who had set up Bailey for
Boroughs opener also provided the assist for their second which saw
Kristian Hext net what proved to be the winner before Dale Hicks had a
goal disallowed.
Gladstone Rovers 7, Kings Arms (All Cannings) 3
Kings Arms (All Cannings) may have scored three goals against joint
leaders Gladstone Rovers but the Chippenham based side got the better of
Jim Wilson’s side for the second time this season as they claimed a
comfortable 7-3 win.
Gary Mills headed Kings Arms in front but Scott Nash restored parity
with his first goal of the season. Robbie Burton’s first of the morning
gave Gladstone a 2-1 lead but back came Kings Arms who made it two each
thanks to debutant Alex Surman who scored from the penalty spot.
Goals from Fabian Prangle and Ian Savin gave Gladstone a 4-2 half time
lead and in the second half they stepped up a gear as they sealed win
number 10 of the campaign with further goals from Burton who scored two
more goals to complete his hat trick and another from Prangle.
Kings Arms third goal came from Alex Surman and just like his first half
effort it came from the penalty spot.
Lavington (Sunday) 6, Chippenham West End 1
Lavington (Sunday) maintained their 100% with a 6-1 win at home to
Chippenham West End who had already suffered a 6-0 defeat at the hands
of Scott Clark’s side when the teams met in early September.
For Lavington it was their first game since the end of December and
their first outing since they were disposed from the number one spot
following the withdrawal of X Change from the League. In an incredible
first 45 minutes all seven goals were scored the first coming from
Lavington’s Myles Hickton, Hickton made it 2-0 before Adam Heath scored
number three.
Good work from Dave Byatt and Joel Lander saw them combine to set up
Phil Mellor for the West End goal. Craig Campbell who later saw red
scored number four for Lavington, Hickton completed his hat trick with
goal number five and Adam Heath’s second of the morning made up the
victors half dozen.
Witham Friary 11, AFC Lyneham 0
Witham Friary have already set their stall out and having taking over at
the top of the table a fortnight ago it is going to take something
special to stop them from romping to the title. Witham hosted AFC
Lyneham and like the sides that went before them Lyneham were put to the
sword by Richard Gould’s side who romped to an 11-0 victory to claim a
10th straight win.
Simon Millard top scored wit ha five timer which took his tally for the
season to 34 goals, Lewis Collier scored twice with Kirk Latham, Jamie
Mines, Ashley Doel and Jason Collier sharing the others.
Ian Kennedy also missed a penalty for Witham but on this occasion his
miss did little damage, along with Kennedy’s miss Witham were also
denied a few more goals as they hit the woodwork on no less than five
occasion.
