Home league match played on 11 August 2019.
Kicked off at 10:30 AM

Oxhill Central FC vs The Scotch (League) > Fight ‘til the end. > Today was the opening game of our 2019-20 campaign in the Consett and District Sunday league. This season already looks to be a funny one with odd numbers in both the first and second divisions. Quakies called time on their relatively quick dip into the Consett Sunday league with their last game ending in defeat in The Jack Grigg Cup final back in May, of course we all know who the winner of that was... Next was the sad news of the longest serving team in the league, The Rafa who were folding after losing players to other new poaching teams... At the league “Emergency AGM” no team from the second division wanted to be promoted which finally left the leagues split into 9 and 11 teams. Last weeks match report caused a little bit of controversy after “he who can’t be named” took the Facebook jibes to heart, from now on anyone playing midweek football with CatMeat must sign a disclaimer stating that CatMeat is not poaching them and simply just enjoying midweek 7a side. Despite it been first game of the season, today’s squad had its usual holes, Christian Kei was at his 15th christening of the year, Clarkey the 80s pop star was away getting tanning injections, Gateshead Dan from Dipton was protecting the public in Blackpool pleasure beach and little Luke was just a no show. In better news Dangerous Davies, Veteran Gav and Gateshead Scott from Ouston were all back in contention. In the changing rooms Tony Boakes he predicted The Arches starting line up on the white board and Sheep was up to his usual habits of stinking out the full place. We were for once ready and out for a warm up relatively early until Veteran Gav had to go back to the changing room as he forgot to put on an Arch top ! Once everyone was ready the ref kicked the game off ten minutes early, this seemed to have a detrimental effect as we hadn’t yet woken up and found ourselves 2-0 down after 5 minutes with two defensive errors. A reply from Knee-slide Az before another sloppy goal seen us 3-1 down inside 15 minutes and Bonzo coming off as his head was still on the clocks dance floor. Donnelley the South Moor Messi stepped in for his first appearance of the season. Both teams then missed some big chances especially The Scotch who didn’t capitalise on even more errors as we put ourselves under pressure but managed to go into the break 3-1 down. Straight after the break Knee-Slide Az seen red and was given his marching orders by Bunting the ref leaving our chances of getting anything from the game very slender. Up stepped a bunch of Arch lads who weren’t ready to roll over that easily, a free kick of Gateshead Scott from Ouston and a header from Veteran Gav had us back level with 20 minutes to play. An unlucky goal had us back behind but that was soon cancelled out with a second goal from Gateshead Scott from Ouston. Sensible Cap Josh told the back unit to stay composed but with 2 minutes to play The Arch efforts looked spoiled as The Scotch scored a counterattack to leave the score at 5-4 but in the dying seconds Dangerous Davies was fouled in the box and The Arch were given a penalty and a lifeline to snatch a point. Dangerous Davies converted and we walked away with a very hard earned point. Every player deserves huge credit for the effort shown in the second half. Back at The Arch manager Pounder said he’s taking the team to the sports centre for yoga and pilates during the week as a team bonding session. Crabstick Coxy admitted he forgot Singe’s weekly breakfast present but will give him his meat draw ticket instead. Elvis turned up looking like a drowned rat after he walked from South Shields where he had been filling up his hair dye bucket with blue sea water. PeeDog caused some trouble as he said manager Pounder has alopecia, fixed the football card for himself to win then hit pigeon man Walter with a paper aeroplane. > Next week we have have a free week. > All of the above stories are true > #UTA > > Sent from my iPhone
