Gary Ward
struck six times as Caister United A continued their
good start to the season. The side that finished mid table in the second
division but still found themselves in the top flight have adapted very well
and on Saturday defeated fellow promoted rival Burgh Hall 9-2 as Anthony Hall
also netted twice and Lee George once.
A team
really struggling this season is Star & Garter who remain without a point
after eight games. Last weekend
In Arches
first six games they had conceded just six goals, however in their 'local
derby' against Gapton Car Hire they conceded four goals to Tom Norman and from
R Collin as they lost 3-5. Arches will be looking for a return to form on
Saturday as they travel to
Defending
champions Catfield were made to work for their three points by Great Yarmouth
Peelers despite a goal in the first minute. Eventually a hat trick from hitman
Chad Pillar and one from veteran striker Paul Thompson and a rare Darrin Scales
sealed a 5-0 win ahead of their cup trip to Hempnall Reserves.
After last
week's twelve thriller The Sunningdale were involved in another high scoring
encounter in a local derby with Carpathians. The Sunny went ahead inside ten
minutes through Billy Lawson with a shot from the edge of the box which curled
into the bottom left corner however Carpathians came back strongly and
equalised with a well taken goal from Lee Griffiths after 15 minutes and were
ahead midway through the half when Colin Walker netted. Leon Tomasso quickly
squared things before a comedy of errors in the Sunny defence involving keeper,
crossbar and defender put Carpathians 3-2 ahead before half-time.
Defences
tightened up in the second period until with 12 minutes left P Harvey again leveled
the game and the Sunningdale could easily have won the match from then on but a
combination of a few good saves from Kelvin Seal and desperate shot blocking
and tackling. A draw seemed a fair outcome until another defensive slip four4
minutes from time allowed substitute D Tadgell to hit a winner for Carpathians.
Neither side has been in a game with more than a two-goal winning margin this
season.
The other
two games in the Second Division North were equally as close with a Liam Nelson
free kick earning Reedham a very hard earned three points against Hemsby.
Richard Barnes opened the scoring for Martham A against the leaders Albert
Tavern. It took the second half introduction of Daniel Charlton to level
matters before the same player put Albert ahead from the spot. Aaron Clemence leveled
the scores before right at the end Charlton completed his hat trick to grab all
three points.
The top two
clashed in the Division Two South and it ended all square in what is turning
out to be a very competitive division. MK United scored through Mark Miller and
Ricky Martin with Great Yarmouth International replying through David Motty and
Carlos Tavares to keep the sides tied on fourteen points.
Prince
Consort opening goal came from the spot from Jamie Miller and the second goal
was from Michael Harvey. That was the way it stayed as Gorleston Peggotty's
failed to find a goal. Johnny Bowles, Adrian Smith and Danny Webster netted for
Great Yarmouth Peggotty's as defeated Star & Garter who like Gorleston
Peggotty's are struggling to find goals.

Two goals from Daniel Hurren
and one from defender Bevan Self earned Catfield a 3-1 win at Hempnall Reserves
and a place in the fourth round of the Norfolk Junior Cup.
With Catfield on cup duty
three teams made up ground on the defending champions. Gapton Car Hire move
level on points after a 5-0 win against Golfers Arms who sit one off the
bottom. Gapton opened the score when Tom Mann sent a ball into the box for Steve
Calver to header home. Then Calver returned the favour when his cross was met
by
Gorleston Rangers moved into
third spot after they defeated a Great Yarmouth Peelers side depleted by late
call-offs - theme of last Saturday. A hat trick from Dean Harper, two from mark
Vincent and one from Adie Sharman completed a 6-3 win although early in the
second period two goals from Martin Goulder and one from the evergreen Wally
Oldham had made the score 3-3.
Great Yarmouth Town Hall
started the game with ten, got to eleven and finished with ten through injury
and the extra man eventually told as Bell and Collings scored to earn MK United
a 2-0 win and move them to within three points of the leaders. A victory at
last for in their ninth attempt for Star & Garter as they defeated Burgh
Hall 6-1 M Marshall grabbed a hat trick, Darren Lamb two and Darren Beckett
one.
Division Two still produces
some close and exciting games as this week Reedham led 3-0 at the break at
Burton Arms through Alistair McKenzie (2) and Liam Nelson. Ten minutes into the
second half the hosts were level through a Lee Orchison double and one from
Gary Davies and turned the game completely on its head when they led through a
goal from substitute Neil Mather. Reedham recovered their composure and showed
some character to earn a point with a late leveller
from John Thorne.
Great Yarmouth International
led after four minutes through Luis Paiva at Carpathians and never let the away
side settle and it was slightly against the run of play that Geoff Quinn
equalised on 32 minutes.
The second half saw a more
determined Carpathians after 63 minutes took the lead from a corner converted
by David Greasy with his first goal of the season. Carpathians were put
under pressure and more frantic defending was needed. The turning point
came on 74 minutes when International thought they had scored from a corner but
the goal was disallowed as the ball had gone out of play and back in
again. From the resulting goal kick the visitors increased their lead when
Quinn struck again. Paiva scored his second to set-up an exciting finish but
the home side held out.
Star & Garter Reserves
improvement continued with a narrow 2-1 win against Prince Consort thanks to
goals from Luke Gibbs and Alan Baker. Great Yarmouth Peggottys (Matthew
McCreadie) and Hemsby (Danny Philip) shared the points.
Two goals from Daniel
Charlton, one each from Ross Charlton and Ben Taveres eased Albert Tavern to a
4-0 win against Gorleston Peggottys who continue to find goals hard to come by
despite a mean defence. Martham A failed to field a side against MK United
Reserves.

Golfers Arms pushed Catfield
all the way in their first round HA Holmes Cup tie before the league leaders
squeezed through 2-1 thanks to goals from Chad Pillar and Tony Thompson. Gapton
Car Hire goalkeeper Tino Niali scored with a free kick from inside his own half
in their cup clash with local rivals Arches. Stuart Finch levelled
and Chris Duffy put Arches ahead against an under strength Gapton. Luke Jackson
took the tie into extra time but things got worse for Gapton as not did they
have manager Tich Leighton playing but they lost their keeper to injury and
finished with eight fit men. Arches greater fitness told and Finch and Calver sealed
a 4-2 win.
Burgh Hall turned back the
clock as some of the best strikers to play in the league over the last decade
combined to hit Star & Garter for seven. Ian Barnes grabbed a hat trick
with Sean Thompson and Eric McFarlane both claiming two each as they won 7-3.
On the league front Great
Yarmouth Peelers took a 3-0 lead through a double from Jason Howell and one
from Jamie Hollis. Caister United A pulled one back
before the break but it appeared no more than a consolation with Peelers in
charge. The second half was a complete reversal as they took over the game and
ran out 5-3 winners as Gary Ward (2) Anthony Hall, Neil Bowman and Dean Allard
completed a remarkable turn around. Two goals from Dean Harper and one a piece
from Keith Vincent, Micky Vincent and Adie Sharman earned Gorleston Rangers a
5-3 win against MK United and top spot, but the real hero was keeper Steve Mann
with a string of fine saves.
It was no better for Star
& Garter Reserves as they lost by the same score as their first team at
Reedham in the Burgess Cup. The home side led 3-1 but Star pulled back to level
before succumbing in the second period. New signing Aaron Jones made an impact
on his full debut scoring a hat trick, matched by Chrissie Newman with Danny
Brown completing the scoring.
MK United Reserves also
netted seven with only one in reply from Great Yarmouth Peggottys. Colin
Halliday (3) Daryl Hall, A dam
A closer affair at Martham A
as with their previous meeting Martham scored first against Great Yarmouth International, built up a good lead and then nearly let it
slip at the end. An own goal put Martham 1- 0 up followed by a Mark Holsworth
bullet header to make it 2-0. Nelson Madeira made it 2-1 before half time but
Martham were first out of the blocks after the break with talisman leading
scorer Richard Barnes making it 3-1. Great Yarmouth International then pulled
the score back to 3-2 through David Motty before Martin Plane made it 4-2.
Matty Packham made it five before Carlos Tavares and
Hemsby were a constant
threat from set pieces and so it was no surprise when Dan Philp scored from a
corner but Burton Arms responded well and equalised, inevitably from top scorer
Lee Orchison. In the second period Terry Whitehouse netted his 11th goal, again
from a corner and again Burton Arms hit back only to have a great free kick
disallowed. Substitute Vinroy Harrison opened his account for the season before
defender Andy Pettit opened his Hemsby scoring account in some style as he
picked up the ball just inside the
At Carpathians it was
Gorleston Peggottys who finally found their scoring touch as Dolphie Gray
opened the scoring with a looping volley over the keeper from a great Adam Pope
cross, before Carpathians Colin Walker capitalised on
Peggotty's keeper fumble. Gray hit his second after some great build up on the
left. A few minutes later Ben Hall scored his second of the season when Andy
Lilly laid off to fire pass the keeper. From the restart Nathan Derry won the
ball, played it to Tom High to score the fourth from 18 yards. In the second
period Carpathians played as they have in recent weeks but had only a penalty from Durrant to leave the final score 4-2.
Only one
league game and another fight back.
The Sunningdale took a two-goal through a corner from Lewis Hannant and a
quality flick on from Craig Sharmen and a goal from Jason Witheridge who beat
the offside trap to coolly finish. Albert Tavern got back in the game when the
prolific Daniel Charlton converted before the break. After a lot of pressure
Albert Tavern drew level midway through the second half through Ross Charlton
and grabbed all three points when Daniel Charlton completed his hat trick with
two late goals.

Reedham hosted Aldborough
Lions in the Norfolk Primary Cup third round and despite the dreadful
conditions of high winds, rain showers and a very boggy pitch, this cup-tie was
a mini-classic, with both teams trying hard to win. Reedham scored first through
Ben Bowers after 15 minutes. Reedham proceeded to miss a hatful of chances and
then the Lions got a goal totally against the run of play to level it on 30
minutes. This lifted the visitors and they scored 2 more over the next ten
minutes to lead 3-1 at the break.
Reedham started the second
half brightly and were rewarded with a goal from Aaron Jones on 50 minutes
which brought us right back into the tie. Aaron Jones popped up again and leveled
the scores with a fine solo effort on 55 minutes. The game then settled down to
hard slog and looked set for extra time until a late substitution by stand-in
manager Tim Stoker saw Alastair Mckenzie replace the tiring Kevin Yaxley on 85
minutes and his fresh legs saw him burst down the left wing, past the Lion's right-winger
and then right-back, cutting inside the area and unleashing a searing shot
which beat the 'keeper and rocketed in off the inside of the post for the
winning goal with virtually the last kick of the game.
MK United Reserves also
progressed into the last 16 after starting the game well and soon finding
themselves with a three goal lead. However after a good start the performance
tailed off. Fortunately Flitcham and Hillington were even poorer. MK were thankful to have a proven goal scorer in Colin Halliday
who netted twice with Daryl Hall converting a spot kick.
Albert Tavern played Lynn
Napier and the visitors started the game better and had the better of the first
20 minutes and couldn't force an opening against the Albert’s solid defence.
But
Albert came out second half
and took control of the game but continued to be thwarted by the
Great Yarmouth Peggottys
battled gamely but were beaten 4-2 by Gaywood Reserves. Both the surviving
sides have away ties on 6th January.
With the second and third
inactive as Gapton Car Hire were unable to raise a team, MK United had the
opportunity to close the gap and they were relieved to end an eleven-goal
thriller against Burgh Hall with all three points as goals from Dave Bartram
(2) Bell, Howarth, Thompson, Collings just edged out
strikes from Ian Barnes (2) Dale Crane, Mark Wiseman and Dean Sutton.
Golfers Arms recorded only
their second league win of the season and moved up to eighth. A late goal
flurry saw them beat Great Yarmouth Peelers 5-0. The police had to hurriedly
sign players on as a number were called away on duty. Those on duty for Golfers
included Ben Flaxman who netted twice and Chris Abbott, Adam Flaxman and Sam
Allen who notched one each. Goals from Stuart Finch (2) M Alp, Craig Cutajar,
and T Burrell enabled Arches to get back to winning ways in the league as they
accounted for Caister United A 5-1.
Carpathians and Martham A
continued the series of close encounters in the second division with Martham
scoring within three minutes of kick-off through Richard Barnes. It took
until 56 minutes before Carpathians eventually equalised with a well taken goal
from Paul Goodson. Carpathians fell victims to the old
cliché of allowing the opposition to score almost from the kick-off through as
Barnes netted again. However, after a couple of substitutions and an unfortunate
sending off for Martham the equaliser arrived from a great header from Goodson
after 78 minutes, made possible after good work from Tadgell. As the game
seemed destined for stalemate a shot from Colin Walker was pushed onto the
crossbar by the goalkeeper only to fall into the path of Tadgell who tucked the
ball away for the winner in a very entertaining match.
Star & Garter Reserves
were held 1-1 at the break by Great Yarmouth International but cut loose in the
second half winning 7-1 with goals from Jason Palmer (3) Josh Thomas (2) Glynn
Hopkins and the old war horse Alan Baker.
