Prince came back into the game before the break as Bernie Mcdonagh netted twice to make the score 5-2. Callum Prowl aided Prince’s comeback efforts until the game was put to bed by Richard Doherty of Woodcutters, leaving a final score of 6-3.

BMW could only field 10 players today but still had the rub of the green as they out shot AFC Dukes by 5-2, even though Dukes maintained a lot of possession during the match. Danny Marinovic (2), Kevin Chard and Richard Morgan (2) rounded off a neat performance for BMW, with Ricky Keeley and Andy Fraser netting for AFC Dukes.

Bracknell Galaxy played their best game this season in the worst possible conditions as they battled to a well deserved 6-1 win over Woodley Hammers Res. Chris Jex netted the solitary goal for Woodley, with Daniel Howard (3), Steve Champion, Calvin May and Joe Brockbank all scoring for the home side.

FC Fernhill take further steps toward a title challenge as they saw off 3M 6-2. Having gone 4-0 up by the break Fernhill seemed to ease off the attack as 3M came back into the 2nd half. Man of the match Sam Whiting (2), Jamie Osbourne, Ben Knight, Matt Lindstrom and Rob Musson all netted for Fernhill with Mark Carlton and Stuart Vasson replying for 3M.

The Old Manor felt flattered by the score line as they cruised to a 4-0 win over Finchampstead Athletic A. Finch made good ground with neat passing moves but couldn’t latch onto any finishes, whereas The Old Manor made sure of their chances when they came. Super sub Ian Birch (2), Billy Golding and Rick Smith made sure of the win for The Manor.

3rd Division

Inter and Bracknell Manics Res cancelled each other out as the game ended all square at 2-2. Scott Ansell and Wayne Sandy both scored for Inter, notching up an assist each also for each other. Aaron Goddard netted a brace for Manics to level the scores during tough conditions.

Syngenta started brightly and were rewarded in the first 20 minutes as Lewis O Conner netted a well struck goal for the home side. John Lister extended the scores as he struck home for Syngenta before Andy Wells replied for The Royal Oak. This was too little too late though as the pressure was absorbed by the Syngenta back line until the final whistle when the game finished 2-1.

The Bridge enjoyed a goal fest as they netted 5 times each half to see off Finchampstead Athletic B 10-2. Tom Conway, Jack Musgrove, Dan Money (3) and Jamie Tucker (5) all netted for The Bridge with James Hemmings and Phil Hemmings replying for Finch.

Cable & Wireless made light work of a heavy pitch at St Crispins with a demolition job over Victoria Arms. Cable passed the ball well and were particularly ruthless from set pieces with Victoria Arms being guilty of giving away too many free kicks around the edge of the penalty area. Man of the match Tom Doherty grabbed 4 assists and helped himself to 2 goals in the process. Cable ended the first half 5 nil up and continued to dominate in the second. Mark Doherty, Andrew Mallon, Matt Stalker, Craig Murphy (2) and Mike Darby also got in on the goal-scoring action to add to Tom Doherty's brace. Victoria arms to their credit kept their energy levels high and took advantage of some relaxed Cable defending to grab two consolation goals. Final score Victoria Arms 2, Cable & Wireless 8.

4th Division

Bracknell Badgers found themselves on the wrong side of a 5-0 score line as they were undone by Atletico Reading. Andrew Nealon (2), Jamie France, Adam Worthington and Paul Callard all got on the score sheet, with Toby Merrit taking the man of the match accolade.

FC A1 Group continue in winning ways as they saw off Loddon Valley Rangers 5-1 today. Phil Ollive (3), Scott Bland and Adam Cornell netted for the home side, with Duncan Cantwell replying for the visitors.

Red Star and Warfield United battled out a 3-3 draw as neither side could force the winner. Looking the more likely, Warfield held a lot of possession and should have walked away with the 3 points. Peter Sokolovsky, Goran Kostavinovich and Chris Blow all netted for Red Star, with Nick Shears (2) and Richie Cohen doing the same for Warfield. Stuart Dorlin and Joe Tickner share the man of the match today.

William Twigg Res pressed forward against The Birch during the 1st half and early pressure resulted in 2 penalties being awarded, both for handball. The first was superbly saved by Birch keeper Steve Bruce with the 2nd going high over the bar. Riding their luck, The Birch pressed forward and a counter attack saw the lead swing their way as Charlie Turner headed in from close range. The Twigg kept up momentum and were soon level as Mark Murphy latched onto a knock down to strike into the top left corner of the net. After having a goal disallowed, Twigg found themselves 2-1 up as Jack Davis netted from close range after a deflected clearance landed at his feet. Into the 2nd half and The Birch held firm with more possession and further chances prevailing leading to Richard Anscomb riding several challenges on a run from centre midfield to force an deflected own goal equaliser. Twigg had a further goal disallowed as an indirect freekick sailed into the net untouched, but The Birch could have nicked all 3 points at the death with Stuart Billingham heading just wide of the post. Final score 2-2.

Berks & Bucks Junior Cup 2nd Round

Woodley Hammers travelled to Fox & Hounds of Reading and faced a trip home after defeat as the Bracknell side left the competition after extra time. Having 2 goals scored against them Woodley had all the work to do, but Sam Cialis stepped up to the plate and delivered 2 goals to see the tie go to extra time. Unfortunately for Woodley the Reading side bagged a late winner with only 3 minutes remaining to bow out of the cup 3-2.

Winkfield Sports started their game with only 10 men, but still imposed their attack on Emmbrook Inn. Adam Sharp (3) and Kevin Philpott rounded off a fine performance for Winkfield as they saw off Emmbrook Inn 4-1.

Horrendous weather conditions made it difficult for both sides to take control of the game, Manics went ahead after 20 minutes from a deflected shot following pressure from a corner. The Met soon started to get a there momentum going despite the adverse weather. A great run by Jason Davey on the left taking on two Manics defenders then having a shot on goal saved by the keeper only for the rebound to fall nicely to the on rushing Nick Lovell who had a simple tap into the empty net. 1- 1 the score at half time. In the second half the weather improved and so did the football from both sides, really good open game of football with chances at either end.
