Reserves and A-Team win their quarter finals

After such a long time without football the Reserves and the A-Team rolled up their sleeves and reached the semi-finals in the Berks & Bucks Junior Cup and Wycombe Junior Cup respectively.

Happy A-Team Gaffer Paul Benning

Happy Reserve Team Gaffer Neil Cannings

The Reserves beat plucky Stantonbury Social Elite, last weekend’s conquerors of Chalfont Wasps, 3:2 in a tightly contested game at French School Meadows. The A-Team had a bit of an easier game beating brave Wycombe Athletic 7:2 in a convincing performance.

This game was played at the Hazlemere Rec as one set of changing rooms in the club house are currently being refurbished.

Well done the boys in blue & white and Managers Neil Cannings and Paul Benning.

The First Team and Youth Team were without games this weekend.

First Team capitulate in the B & B Intermediate Cup, 4th Round

Skipper Danny Jordan still happy

Penn & Tylers Green F.C travelled to the picturesque Oxfordshire village of Ardington just outside Wantage on Saturday to take on the unbeaten North Berks League division one table toppers Ardington & Lockinge F.C. in the Berks & Bucks Intermediate Cup. All games are tough but Penn & Tylers Green F.C play at a step above their opponents and should have been capable of beating Ardington, albeit in a cup in which Penn & Tylers Green F.C have continually under-achieved in the last few seasons. Penn & Tylers Green F.C are the highest level of clubs participating in this competition (i.e. Step 6). Continue reading…

The boys in blue & white dug deep today. Chinnor FC 2 – Penn & Tylers Green FC 3

Shake hands for the last game in 2013

The Penn & Tylers Green FC support made their way over towards Chinnor from the French School Meadows club house with a certain amount of trepidation. The Chairman, Secretary and the other supporters could not remember the last time we won at their Oxfordshire Station Road ground. Over there they have always been our bogey team. Coming down the winding road from Bledlow Ridge into Chinnor we agreed that after the good win on Boxing Day we wanted a positive result today. Getting there, it was good to see our friends and ex-players the Feaver brothers again, who both now play for the home side. Continue reading…

Penn & Tylers Green FC 4 – Burnham FC Reserves 1

The Boxing Day Handshake

On a very cold Boxing Day Penn & Tylers Green FC entertained the Reserves from Burnham FC in Division One (East) league encounter today here at French School Meadows today. The pitch held up remarkably well considering the rain we have had in the area over the last week. Only as recently as Christmas Eve we had loads of standing water on the pitch and when the pitch was inspected at 8:15 this morning we were presently surprised that the game could go ahead. Well done the groundsman over this season this far. Continue reading…

Excellent Result for First Team against Premier Side Newbury

Gaffer Sepede is confident

After last week’s disappointing display at Headington Amateurs in the league the First Team had an opportunity to make amends in the Reading Senior Cup tie at French School Meadows this afternoon. And amends they made by comfortably beating the opposition form the division above us with a solid second half display.

On a windy and dull Saturday afternoon the game started with an early kick off with Captain Danny Jordan winning the toss and deciding to play up the slope in the first half. Continue reading…

Bad day at the office

Before Kick Off

Chairman Tony Hurst’s post match comment: “This is the best squad of first team players I have seen assembled, by Manager Giovanni Sepede, since I stepped into this role some five years ago (or is it 500 years!), but I have to say that if I was one of those misguided chairmen who actually pay players at this level of football, then all of today’s team would have been going home with empty pockets and a charity would have definitely benefited from one of the worst collective Penn & Tylers Green FC performances in recent years. I have heaped praise on this squad of players all season, and rightly so, but this performance was unacceptable given the talent on display. I am expecting the appropriate reaction to my comments starting with this week’s training session and then into next Saturdays cup game against Newbury from the Premier Division, a perfect scenario to put things right and get some pride back.

Excellent Cup Win For The First Team Away From Home

Holyport Football Club play their games at Summerleaze village, Blackamoor Lane, Maidenhead, Berkshire. This was today’s opposition and the venue from the Premier Division for our First Team’s Supplementary Cup encounter. As always we were made very welcome by our friends from just across the county border. It was also good to see our former player Jamie West again. Continue reading…
