1/2
Game aside today. Quality of Mannington Rec today was extraordinarily shite. To point out a few:
- 1 net per box
- extremely faint lines on the pitch meaning the ref had no choice to give a penalty when our LB fouled a player 20 yards from goal (not blaming ref at all)
It’s matchday! Finally the season gets underway as we face a decent
@SwindonMagFC
side who had some decent PSF results. Hoping to start the season strong 💪

Boring as fuck 0-0 draw in a friendly vs

today. Credit to them for honouring a minute silence for

Dad and Sister. Class act, all the best for the season lads.
Also those wondering, nothings changed at Mannington, 7 a side nets in 11 a side net boxes, domino’s pizza boxes EVERYWHERE, bins blocking hallways. Random training goal blocking entrance to changing room. Never change Sunday league 😂

2/2
- Dog shit everywhere (appreciate this is owners responsibilities but there’s no ground staff of scene)
- Two leaning tower of Pisa’s for goalposts
Refund pending I think
@Swindonfootball
@SwindonCouncil
sort it out please. £65 for that quality is nowhere near good enough
Season finished with a 0-4 win at Cricklade. What a performance that was, could have been double figures. 8th place, 10 points. Not the best but something to work on. Onto 23/24 💪

FT in Devizes as

Goals where a lovely near post shot by Corey and a beautiful curling strike off the crossbar by Oscar.

@calhamhill2
There was no miscommunication from Cricklade. I made a mistake by misreading Scorpion’s dm. Cricklade then gave us OTA in a friendly cos they couldn’t play us anymore (my error). No need to accuse Cricklade of something they haven’t done
Disappointing 2 points dropped today against a weakened Cricklade side. 1-1 the final score, conceding with a minute left on the clock

@corey_averies

Brilliant to see so many support the MIND initiative this Sunday. Thanks to Cricklade for joining us in doing so
2-1 defeat today against
@NorthSwindonFC
MOTM was Leggy with a midfield maestro performance.
Goal scored by
@RRD_MXXII
with a neat dribble past the GK, unfortunately resulting in the abandonment of the game as the GK injured himself. Wish him a speedy recovery.

Come onnnnnn. 2-1 Away in the K.O cup vs a Westmead side that only 5 or so weeks ago we lost 9-2 against.

. 1-0 up at HT then crumbled after a dodgy penno decision seeing us go 4-1 down within 8 mins of the penno. Poor last 30 ish mins but a decent first 60 ish. MOTM GK Jay (again), would’ve been 17-1 if not for him 😂

Disappointing 2-1 loss to Cricklade Sundays yesterday evening. Started strong but couldn’t get the ball in the net. MOTM Jay quality in goal probably should’ve been more than 2 for Cricklade. Onto Covingham Sunday.
