Come on Welwyn Garden City, dispose of ten village locals

 

Not sure many of Codicote's side are actual villagers, but they do have some decent players. With players like boss Liam Errington, Adam Furness, Leon Gutzmore, Joe Tyler & 2 of my old lads Michael Ettienne &

Tommy Randall. I expect them to make a big

push for promotion next year.

South Midlands League Premier Division

London Colney 1 Aylesbury United 2

Admission £6 inc programme Att: 41 (h/c)

 

A night so cold only the committed would attend. Plus, I suppose, those wishing to be committed. Colney is the most basic of grounds, a slight slope from end to end, a temporary stand, and a strange contraption made of corrugated steel which can house about 6 standees should it rain. There were occasional snow flurries instead tonight. It is mid-March after all. It is a ground largely devoid of character, open to the elements, bounded by the dual carriageway which flicks its way past St Albans and links the M1 to the A1. The traffic noise in the background was ceaseless.

 

Aylesbury scored the opening goal commendably early, courtesy of a defence splitting pass that had no right to be played at this level, and we drifted towards half time in a state of numbness. Just before the break however, their towering and commanding centre back was taken off injured, and Colney reappeared re-energised. The equaliser, 20 minutes into the second half, was the culmination of their new found intent, but having gained parity, they didn't push on. Fifteen minutes from time, Aylesbury stole the winner from close range and Colney had run out of puff. They were not the only ones.

No, I hope to be at Hanwell Town v Ampthill Town this evening, will you be as thick as thieves with your compatriots again.

TW@T was not in attendance...well never smelt him that's for sure

[NeutralFan]

Make sure they got the correct goal scorer for St Mags Res correct

That was a tongue in cheek, by me.

However I note that WGC beat them last night at the awful and souless Gosling Stadium in WGC.(not WGC's ground)

WGC appear to have reorganised themselves this season and I hope they can push on and get back to the Premier Division next season. What's happening to Codicote's ground? Nice village and it would be good to go there to catch a game.

Yes, don't know why, probably some Health & safety or other ridiculous ground grading issue. Didn't they buy the old floodlights from The Valley a few years back ?

Ground grading issue according to their website. Doing a lot of good work in their community sports wise, so let's hope the first team gets back there soon.

See the report on last Saturdays game as well, which confirms my impressions of an improving WGC

[petethegreek]

Are you going down to Coles Park tonight, Rhodes?

No, I hope to be at Hanwell Town v Ampthill Town this evening, will you be as thick as thieves with your compatriots again.

 

And did you go to Hanwell Town?

[paddywack]

[Tiger007]

Don't think his bus pass would allow him to at that time of night

[thecoldend]

Match higlights of Codicote v Welwyn Garden City. Check out Abe Osobu's strike from 2m 20secs. Briliant goal.
