sportsman10 Posted July 29, 2023 Report Share Posted July 29, 2023 Millbrook losing 8-1 at home in the first game is not going to do anything for the confidence of the club when all ready rumours of them pulling out the league. suprised by the Helston result. 2 up cruising to throw it away , I notice Curtis dameral started on the bench thought he was the big name signing in the summer.

John Henry Posted July 29, 2023 Report Share Posted July 29, 2023 Went to the millbrook game against Bridgwater and in fairness to millbrook they battled hard but we’re just outclassed by a very good team who dominated from start to finish good results for clevedon and the new side oldland athletic against two fancied teams but wellington was for me the outstanding performance of the day coming from 2 goals behind to take a point at helston Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philheybrookbay Posted July 29, 2023 Report Share Posted July 29, 2023 Nice place Oldland. Pitch was a credit- like a carpet. They've signed some big hitters from Bridgwater and have a fair few dual registrations in a link with Cribbs now Southern League. Their captain got their MOM but the number 11 on the wing was outstanding. They're not in it to make up the numbers putting it mildly and are building new facilities with new dressing rooms complex and clubhouse being ripped apart currently which will take the existing dressing rooms. We took a deserved lead in second half and if we'd taken some of chances we had we'd have come home with the points but it wasnt to be. But two goals from Kirean O'melia a positive along with the work rate and team togetherness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this stage I don’t think they have to worry about discipline, more so the concern should be strike power! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be a rule that if one manager gets sent off all managers or assistants or whatever you want to call them for that team should also go. Maybe that's why some teams feel the need to have 3 managers 🤔. One manager gets red carded, no worries we got two more to carry on with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this stage I don’t think they have to worry about discipline, more so the concern should be strike power! I was stood near you Dave, so didn't have a great view of it, but I was surprised the ref even pulled a card. I spoke to several fans on the half way line and I'm definitely not alone. I hope the club appeal it, because it seemed completely out of proportion to the challenge. No complaints about the other card mind you. As for the game, Shepton Mallet had the better of the first half, but Blazey played very well in the second. Giler scored a terrific header and will go down in Blazey history as the first scorer for the club at step 5. Apparently Will Tinsley reckons that he was a good yard away from the lad who won the free kick that lead to the equaliser, and Semmons clearly thought he'd been fouled, but I think he could possibly have punched the ball rather than try to catch it.

As for the goal conceded, I thought Shaun could have done better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomersetObserver Posted July 30, 2023 Report Share Posted July 30, 2023 Went to Welton V Barnstaple and Barnstaple were very impressive against a Welton side who have recruited well in the off season. Result of the day has to be Wellington , I didn't see that coming given some of the beatings they have had in pre season from lower league opposition and also given the fact that they had a full back in goal yesterday.

Takes time to gel a new squad I guess Judging from what I've heard, Bucks were the better side for most parts, but a combination of poor finishing and good defending from Clevedon didn't help matters. Also Buckland's defence still appears to be a bit shakey playing the formation they do. (I wasn't there, only going by what I heard!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
