It’s coming to that time of year where players are going to start jumping ship..
Any players that join Colby will not be selected if they still owe money to their previous club..
This is something that FA have no interest in but if all clubs unite then a precedent can be set
First game of the season and 3 points in the bag..
8-5 win.. took our foot off the gas and let them score a few scrappy goals but always had the game under full control..
1 goal for JPS, 2 for Jordan Edge and
5 goals for Carl Hickey
If only we had a goal scorer?

Colby 4:1 Foxdale
Excellent performance today..
Went one nil down thanks to Mr Magoo failing notice the most obvious offside in football history 😂
Carried on playing good football and was an overall brilliant team performance
Ste Collister ⚽️⚽️
JPS ⚽️⚽️
We travelled all the way up to Michael Utf today and beat then 9:2.. Should have scored more and disappointed not to get a clean sheet but it was a solid performance.

Malew 0-4 Colby

An incredible performance against a team near the top of the table with Colby controlling the majority of the game and 16 year old Fyn Mulligan getting a debut goal right at the death
1st team result from yesterday, Colby 6-2
@RYCOBFC
⚽️ Carl Hickey x2

Wins for both teams as combi came from 2-0 down to win 6-2 against Governors. A hat-trick for Mikey Thompson and goals from Charlie Georgeson, Zac Moughton and Harry Walker making up the scorers.
@ManxFootyPod
Last night we went north to take on RYCOB in very poor weather & pitch conditions. 2-1 down at half time & then injuries early in the 2nd half to 3 key players saw us use all subs before the hour mark..
A change in formation and a huge battle gave us a draw.
Ste Collister ⚽️⚽️
Colby 2-2 Onchan
⚽ Seb Spiers
⚽ Jordan Edge
An end to end battle which could've gone either way, draw probably the fair result, big mention to Steve Beardwood who filled in between the sticks for us today and pulled off some great saves
Full time - Colby 3-0 Malew
A big three points for the Moonlighters who struggled to finish their chances in the first half. Second half goals from Wooland, Jordan Edge and Whitley make it six wins out of six.

The Combi played out a thrilling 3-3 draw with Castletown last night, coming from 3-1 down to draw, Colby goals coming from Jack Fordham, Jakon Ladd and an absolute screamer of an own goal from a Castletown player
Colby 5-2 Douglas Athletic
⚽⚽⚽ Seb Spiers
⚽ Eden Ludgate
⚽ Ryan Archibald
A convincing win for Colby with some brilliant football shown for some of the goals
Time to announce our first 4 signings
We are delighted to say that Matthew Costain, Jordan Primrose-Smith, Jonny Croft and Dave Caldwell have all returned to Colby ahead of the upcoming season. Great to have you all back

Full time - Colby 3-2 Foxdale
Colby come out on top in a very good game that could’ve gone either way. A brilliant man of the match performance by Elliot Le Moal saw him score and assist from right back. Colby goals from Oli Swales, Carl Hickey and Elliot Le Moal.
@ManxFootyPod
Good news from the Colby Women, who have beaten Douglas Old Boys 5-1 today at Station Fields.
A hattrick from Dominique Moran and goals from Amy Speed and Caitlyn Smith ensure a comprehensive victory.
#COYM
Colby 5-2 Michael
⚽⚽ Jordan Edge
⚽⚽ Dave Thomas
⚽ Tom Walton
Showed great character after going 2-1 down at the start of the second half, kept our game and managed to get 4 goals to send us through to the next round of the cup
GOAAAAALLLL COLBY!!!! Elliot Le Maol’s high ball into the box floats over the Foxdale keeper and into the top corner. It may have been an accident, but he won’t care - a goal on his 1st team debut for the 16-year old makes it 3-2!
Friendly result
Colby 5-3 Pulrose
⚽⚽ Jack Skillicorn
⚽⚽ Jordan Edge
⚽ Eden Ludgate
A solid shift from everyone with the focus now shifting towards the first league game in a couple weeks time vs Foxdale
1st Team Result
D&D 1-4 Colby
⚽ Paul Whitley
⚽ Jonny Croft
⚽ Jordan Edge
⚽ Carl Hickey
5 wins from 5 for the 1st team, onto next weeks Southern Derby vs Malew
A very frustrating game today...
With at least 5 of our key players out injured we weren’t expecting to do well against the so called favourites for the league.. After dominating the 1st half we couldn’t sustain it.. The game finished 3:6.
Ste C ⚽️⚽️ Edge ⚽️
See you next time !
Our season ends with defeat away to Foxdale.
A massive thank you to the players, coaches and supporters who helped get Colby competing again after a tricky few years.
Couple months rest and back to it again soon.
COME ON YOU MOONLIGHTERS!
Full time AET - Colby 5-4 Laxey
A brilliant game of football sees Colby come out on top - just. Solid first half followed by a shaky second by the home side saw Laxey come back into it and Colby did well in the extra 30 mins with 10 men.
The aim of this is for people who can’t get down to matches to know the latest scores or if anyone needs to know any rearrangements.
We hope you enjoy the new coverage and let’s hope for a positive and successful season ahead.

A frustrating result with Onchan being reduced to 10 men at 4-4 not long after Kane Bibby saved a penalty for us. This free kick from Hattersley being the pick of the goals
