Good away point

Aston Clinton 2 – Penn and Tylers Green FC 2

In a hard fought and sometimes feisty game, Penn and Tylers Green FC twice came from behind to earn a well deserved point at top of the table Aston Clinton.

On a sunny but chilly afternoon, Penn and Tylers Green FC kicked off hoping to maintain their good form of late. The game was largely uneventful in the first quarter with neither side testing the opposition goalkeeper. However, following a scramble in the Penn and Tylers Green FC goalmouth an unfortunate ricochet off a Penn and Tylers Green FC player let Aston Clinton score at the far post, giving goalkeeper Conor Latta no chance.

Man or the Match - Alex Morgan

Penn and Tylers Green FC immediately fought back, prompted by Curtis Stone in midfield, and this led to a superb through ball by Joe Sullivan to Will Brangwin who shot across the goalkeeper into the far corner of the net. Unfortunately Joe then had to be replaced owing to illness, upsetting the balance of the team with Ross Brace who had looked very comfortable at centre back moving to midfield and Jordan Ives coming on to take his place in defence.

Youth Team goal hungry after the break

APBS Youth 1 – Penn & Tylers Green FC 6

Penn & Tylers Green FC arrived at the APBS ground full of confidence off the back of four straight wins, however due to the terrible pitch conditions there were worries that the game may not go ahead. Soon enough, a man arrived with a bucket of soil to patch up as many holes as he could and the eager referee let the match proceed as normal.

Man of the Match Anthony Quigley, scoring five goals

There was also a full debut for the youngster Ed Howe. Continue reading…

Another win before the Festive Break

Penn & Tylers Green FC Youth 2 – Wendover Junior 1

On a very frosty morning with the real possibility of the game being called off the excellent referee Fred Mullin gave the go ahead with five minutes to go before kick-off. Two very committed teams produced a very entertaining game in difficult conditions.

Luke Cohen - Man of the match and scorer

Penn & Tylers Green FC got the better start playing up the slope and took an early lead when Luke Cohen took advantage of a mix up between their keeper and defender and slotted the ball into the net from the edge of the box.

This was exactly what the boys needed. There were more opportunities on both sides but both keepers were outstanding in goal today making important saves throughout the game. Conor Latta in goal and most of the other boys attending his birthday get-together on Friday appeared to have recovered enough to be up for this game.

The strong wind helped Wendover with their equaliser after about 20 minutes. On this corner (all their corners were well taken and always dangerous) the strong wind decided to make the ball unplayable and it ended up in the back of the net. Continue reading…

Man or the Match - Alex Morgan

Midfield motors Curtis Stone, Patrick Blunt and Joseph Sullivan were well supported by the extremely hardworking Fabio Battista and William Brangwin. Luke Cohen and Anthony Quigley up front kept the opposition defence busy as usual.

A Fab Start for Penn & Tylers Green FC Youth Team

Bourne End 2 – 6 Penn & Tylers Green FC

Bourne End entertained Penn & Tylers Green FC Youth Team this morning in the opening game of the season. There was a torrential downpour throughout the game making the conditions difficult from the start.

Penn & Tylers Green FC Youth Team started off lively and were keeping possession of the ball well but not making any clear cut chances. The wings were where most of the action was being played with Will Brangwin and Fabio Battista proving to be a real handful. But although Penn & Tylers Green FC Youth Team were looking more likely to score, a Bourne End corner wasn’t dealt with and their striker headed home at the near post past Conor Latta. Penn & Tylers Green FC Youth Team heads didn’t drop and five minutes later, a nice passing move involving Curtis Stone and Luke Cohen led to Tony Quigley finishing well into the bottom corner.
