Red Match :

The Swallows thought that they were in for a charmed life but during the first few minutes of the game they looked lost. As the game went on our heroes remembered the good old days and began to play like champions. Then Thomas Napper, Jack Wasteney, William Hague, Keagan Ashburn and Andrew Lindley gave the Langold defence the run-around and between them scored a cracker. But Langold would not eat porridge and put in the equaliser. With the ball going from one end to the other in the early stages the Langold attackers kept going straight for goal. But never the twain met as the Swallow’s defence of Jordan Scott, Ross Kiddy and Adam Hird had the attackers bewitched.

Result: Swallownest 1 – 1 Langold

Blue Match:

With a touch line full of desperate housewives and the dad’s army full of butterflies we all expected the match of the day. The first few minutes could have seen any team take the upper hand and with everybody at the crossroads our attacking crew of Sam Goulden, Joshua Drury, Kai Deakin, Kieran Walton and Grace Akers showed they had the X Factor. The bonanza of goals soon began to tally up as we all began a countdown to the final whistle. With one foot in the grave Langold moved in to top gear keep and began to cannon shots at the defence of Sarah Marsh, Megan Nagy and Corrie Rust. But both home and away Langold proved to be the casualty.

Result: Swallownest 7 – 0 Langold

Red Match:

The game was fast and hard with each side striving to get the upper hand and forge a lead. Every attack by Manton bounced off the anvil defence of Sarah Marsh, Ross Kiddy, and Grace Akers. Then as the pace began to take it’s toll on Manton the Swallows took the lead thanks to Thomas Napper, Keagan Ashburn, Andrew Lindley, Jack Wasteney and Kieran Walton. Further goals would not come to our team as Manton dug deep and walled up the goal.

Result: Swallownest 1 – 0 Manton

Blue Match:

The second match started just like the first with each team determined to anneal the other, but it was the Swallows who took control and scored but could not bend the Manton defence further. The constant attack of Cameron Shaw, Kian Hancock, Joshua Drury, and Sam Goulden could not dent the Manton defence. Then in two swift counter attacks the Swallows found themselves two goals down even with the best efforts of Adam Hird, Corrie Rust and Megan Nagy.

The game could have gone either way but the Swallows showed what they were made of against strong opposition.
