HORFIELD UNITED

Horfield played top of the table St George Rangers and put in a gallant effort against the runaway leaders. Two one down after a sending off, Horfield fought back with 10 men and pushed hard.  Goals from Cerris Owen and John Burden was not enough to stop defeat and ending a four game winning streak.

A good performance was demanded by Coach Kay and the team responded with a performance that resulted in 9 goals.  Robert Crockett got 6 of the goals for a double hat-trick.  Strike partner John Burden got 1 with the other goals coming from a Simon Kay penalty and a Simon Smith long range effort.

The result leaves Horfield United 3rd with 10 games to go. With the league tight at the top every point counts and will be an interesting run for all the teams involved.

After a slow start Horfield got themselves back in to the game with a goal a piece from John Burden and Robert Crockett.  In the second half Horfield pushed on and got a goal from James Forbes followed by a second goal from Robert Crockett and a first goal for Andrew Tribe in Horfield colours.

Horfield United go up to second in the table.

A hard fought win for Horfield Utd. After initially taking a lead through John Burden Horfield went into half time 2-1 down.  John Burden equalised after the break and Horfield went 3-2 up with a Steve Pollock header.   Oldland Abbotoians then equalised and the game was heading for  a draw.  Cerris Owen saved a penalty at 3 -3 to keep Horfield in the game.  With minutes to go John Burden completed his hat-trick with a headed goal.

A good 3 points for Horfield United that takes them up to third in the league

The first home game of 2010 at Muller Road saw a loss for Horfield Utd.  They went down to an early goal before getting one back before half-time.  After half-time another early goal was conceded before an equaliser by James Forbes.  Eventually Southmead ran out 4- 2 winners.

A lack luster display by Horfield which needs to be addressed if any progress is going to be made this season.

After 5 weeks of no play due to the bad weather, Horfield Utd finally got to play their first game of 2010. Frampton Athletic were the opponents at their ground.  Conditions were good considering the weather of the last few weeks.

The first half Horfield came out strong and were unfortunate not to lead at half time.  The second half was a lot harder as Frampton Athletic came back strong.  It took a long range effort form Simon Smith to break the deadlock, his first goal in 5 years!  This was followed by a late goal by James Ford in the last few minutes.

A pleasing result for a team that had not played for a long period and good to be back in the swing of playing.
