Swindon Rangers 2                        Broad Town Colts 1

A very high standard match was played out on Sunday between Rangers and Colts. Broad Town definitely had the better of the first half and went in at the break a goal up, a calm finish from Declan Mcstravick (main picture). The second half was pretty event but turned in the favour of Rangers once the influential Joe Tyson left the field through injury. Rangers became more dangerous and with 10 minutes to go, got their equalizer from a penalty. Vinnie Granato being fouled, Alfie Moulding calmly converting.  With just a few minutes remaining, Rangers made their possession count, with sub Cameron Liffen coming off the bench to finish from close range. An evenly balanced match that could have finished a draw, however Rangers dug deep to go the extra mile.

 

Ferndale Rodbourne 1                  Croft Junior Red 3

A Croft penalty broke the deadlock during the first half to which they added a second before half time. Ferndale missed an opportunity to reduce the deficit when they had a penalty saved with Croft going on to increase their lead on the counter attack. A Brandon Page headed goal got Ferndale back into the game but despite putting the pressure on they failed to score again. Matty Connor was awarded Ferndale’s Player of the Match for his involvement in most of Ferndale’s promising attcking play, especially during the second half.

FC Chippenham Youth 5         Ferndale Rodbourne 1  (Thursday 28th April)

Ferndale Rodbourne 3             Swindon Supermarine L 4  (Tuesday 26th April)

Under 16 – Division 3

FC Calne 1                                         FC Calne Rovers 4

It was a Beversbrook derby on Sunday morning as FC Calne met FC Calne Rovers in an excellent match in terms of football ability and sportsmanship. FC Calne had the better of the first half, their best chance smacking off the crossbar, but it was the Rovers who took the lead shortly before half time, captain Kai Morgan running through from midfield to roll a shot low into the corner. The second half began with a wonderful double save from ‘keeper Ben Gould to protect Rovers’ lead, but from then on it was a different affair with Rovers adding three more to their total. Defender Kieran Alday out jumped the FC Calne keeper to make it 2-0, league top scorer Freddie Boase made it three with a rebounded effort from close range, and a 25 yard screamer from Sam Bryant scored Rovers’ fourth – his first goal for the club. FC Calne did manage to grab a well worked consolation late on but the final score was in Rovers favour at 4-1.

Under 18 – Division 2

Highworth ended their season on a high, snatching late goals to beat Wroughton Youth.

In the ascendency, Town kept pushing and eventually got the winner 5 minutes from time, when awarded a penalty, Henry Newman stepped up to convert past Bilsby.
