Slazengers 4's faced top of the table Bradford on Saturday and performed very well in their last home league fixture of the season. Bradford were a well drilled side with a good mixture of youth and a couple of experienced first teamers that ensured Slazenger 4's had to play with a good tempo and make use of the wings if they were to compete. Aidan Hopkinson, Tom Pitchforth and Geoff Birkett worked hard to create the space in midfield to enable the team to push forward and attack. Tim … [Read more...] about Report: 10-03-2012 – Mens 4th’s (Dev) (2) vs. (0) Airedale 3rd’s

Report: 03-03-2012 – Mens 1st’s (3) vs. (0) Thirsk 1st’s
Slaz 1st vs Thirsk 1st Slaz were short of several players, but this was a second in the league against a team at the bottom that hadn’t won a game. Slaz were determined not to become the first side to loose. Slaz were current favourites to go up in the second spot. Slaz got off to the usual form and seemed disjointed, but they supported each other well and got one goal before half time from Paul Wiper. Andy Fisher had a good consistent game at centre back. Isaac Fisher, Richard … [Read more...] about Report: 03-03-2012 – Mens 1st’s (3) vs. (0) Thirsk 1st’s
Report: 03-03-2012 – Mens 2nd’s (2) vs. (2) Lincoln Roses 4th’s
Slazenger Men’s 2nd Team travelled to Lincoln Roses 4s and came away with a well-fought draw. Slaz travelled without some key players but still produced a great team performance to earn their first point since Christmas. It was Lincoln who scored the first goal of the match from an attack that came just after Slaz had missed opportunities to go ahead themselves. By the end of the first half the score remained 1-0 but both teams had created chances to but not taken them. Slaz started the … [Read more...] about Report: 03-03-2012 – Mens 2nd’s (2) vs. (2) Lincoln Roses 4th’s
Report: 03-03-2012 – Mens 3rd’s (2) vs. (3) Garforth 1st’s
Slazenger travelled away to Garforth 1st's, looking for another win on the back of the previous weeks' victory. However, its was not to be, as they fell to two last minute goals at the hands of the hosts. Slazenger started quickly, though with the obvious absence of Skipper Andy Fisher. Ste Roberts and Luke Gueli controlled the midfield well, and with some fluid passing Garforth were quickly under pressure. Frustratingly, Slaz continue to struggle with their finsihing and were unable to … [Read more...] about Report: 03-03-2012 – Mens 3rd’s (2) vs. (3) Garforth 1st’s
Report: 03-03-2012 – Mens 4th’s (Dev) (2) vs. (0) Airedale 3rd’s
Slazenger 4's game against Airedale turned, rather surprisingly, into a fractious affair with several flash points throughout the game. The home team started brightly, fielding just the one adult outfield player at the start of the match and once again quickly got into their stride, passing the ball around, retaining possession reasonably well and creating several goalscoring chances, that with a little composure should have been converted into goals. Aidan Hopkinson and Tom Pitchforth … [Read more...] about Report: 03-03-2012 – Mens 4th’s (Dev) (2) vs. (0) Airedale 3rd’s
