On a cold afternoon Slazenger 3's latest fixture was away at Scunthorpe against Brigg Men's 4th team. Despite a few absences due to injury and unavailability Slazengers started the match with a good tempo and immediately took the game by the scruff of the neck. Time and again the midfield of Dan Levitt and Anwar Al-Khaili were instrumental in snuffing out any danger and starting attacks of their own. It was captain for the day Luke Gueli who broke the deadlock against a slightly … [Read more...] about Report: 09-11-2013 – Mens 3rd’s (8) vs. (1) Brigg 4th’s

Slazenger Mens 3's first league fixture of the season was a sobering experience away against a skilful and energetic Brigg team. The Horbury team had shown good form during pre-season and had strong expectations for a decent performance. However, it was the home side who started the brightest and were posing serious problems for the away team. Slazengers looked off the pace and a little unsure of what they were doing. But for good defensive work from Mark Kitchen and Tony Walker, they could … [Read more...] about Report: 28-09-2013 – Mens 3rd’s (1) vs. (3) Brigg 3rd’s

Slazenger's 3's last league fixture of the year was at home against Brigg 4's. Having beaten them twice already in league and cup this season the home team went into the match with confidence but aware that they couldn't be complacent. It took the home team quite a while to settle and get into their groove after some concerted pressure from the opposition. However, once they settled into their team formation, the home team began creating scoring opportunities. It took Ian hedges breaking … [Read more...] about Report: 15-12-2012 – Mens 3rd’s (4) vs. (0) Brigg 4th’s

Slaz mens 3's had no regular league fixture on Saturday, so played their Sunday cup fixture instead. Their opposition, Brigg 4's had been defeated in the league 7-0 already, so Slaz were hoping to equal their previous result. Brigg's recently laid pitch delivered quick ball movement, however, it also led to the ball bouncing and bobbling, making for fast, if slightly unpredictable behaviour. The first few minutes were evenly matched with both teams adjusting to the surface and finding … [Read more...] about Report: 27-10-2012 – Mens 3rd’s (7) vs. (0) Brigg 4’s
