Bulls 0 Burnham Juniors Cubs Blues 9
A test of character for the Bulls who were matched against a much stronger team. Great credit to the boys for showing a good attitude in such a difficult situation. They kept trying right to the end and were unlucky not to snatch a consolation goal.
Rams 1 Burnham Juniors Cubs Whites 1
A closely contested match between two excellent teams. The Rams fought back after going a goal down early in the second half : a perfectly placed long range lob by James getting the Rams back on level terms. The Rams kept pressing and finished the game looking like the most likely winners. A good match with some quality football.

NW Robins Deportivo 2 Bulls 3
A hard fought win for the battling Bulls. The Bulls started brightly, taking an early lead from a cracking shot by Bradley, but a determined Deportivo quickly fought back. By half time Deportivo were back on level terms and were starting to get the upperhand.
Both teams showed fantastic effort in an exciting, end-to-end second half. Janni put the Bulls back ahead with a looping effort and a belter from Alfie seemed to have the match sewn up, but Deportivo never gave up. The Bulls had a couple of penalty appeals turned down and Max hit the post, while at the other end a good save by Joel kept Deportivo at bay. Eventually Deportivo pulled a goal back, but the Bulls were determined to hold onto the lead.
Motm was Josh who was sharp in defence, broke forward several times and played on after taking a nasty whack in the first half. Four wins out of five in 2008 for the Bulls!

NW Robins Barca 1 Rams 4
An excellent win for the Rams with a superb second half display. A tightly contested first half saw both teams level at half time, but the Rams moved into top gear after the break. An alert Arran got the Rams on their way, seizing on a goalkeeping fumble to fire in the first goal. Barca continued to pose a threat, but goals from Thomas, Arran with his second and James secured another convincing win for the Rams.

Rams 2 Chalfont Saints Sharks 0
The Rams continued their good form this season with their second win this campaign against Chalfont Sharks.
A highly contested first half ended 0 - 0 with only a handful of opportunities for each team.
Tom Scott put the Rams 1 - 0 up with a fine strike over the keeper, the boys continued to press looking for a second goal and it soon came with a fantastic lob from outside the box by the lively James Heady, taking him up to joint 2nd top goal scorer with 9 goals for the season.
Some great defending from Connor Campbell in the first half and solid goalkeeping in the second half ensured another clean sheet for the Rams.

Bulls 2 Chalfont Saints Pythons 0
The Bulls were quickly back to winning ways, recording their third win out of four games in 2008 and their first ever clean sheet.
The Bulls took the lead in the first half with a cracking shot from Janni. Only a great penalty save from the Pythons keeper kept the score down to one-nil at half time.
The Bulls went close several times in the second half, with the woodwork and a dodgy refereeing decision denying Janni a hat-trick. A couple of good saves by Callum and superb defending from motm Oliver stopped the Pythons from getting back in the game and a quality finish from Tom sealed the win midway through the second half.
Excellent performances from the energetic Charlie, James and Bradley meant that the Bulls were always on top. Another good win!

Slough Irish 1 Rams 1
It was a scrappy first half with only a couple of half chances falling to the lively Tom Scott who was unfortunate not to get on the scoresheet. The Rams certainly enjoying the best of the first half posession and chances.
Corey Edwards came on in the second half sparking the Rams into life, who were now pushing to take the lead. All their hard work paid off after Lewis Dudzik crossed the ball in for Callum to bend one into the bottom corner past the Slough keeper taking his tally for the season now up to 5!
The Rams continued to pressurise and were unlucky not to get a second before Slough hit us on the break against the run of play.
An impressive performance from Sean Chivers, a tough physical match the game ended 1-1 with both teams taking a share of the spoils.

NW Barca 3 Bulls 1
A brave effort from the Bulls against a big, strong NW Barca. The Bulls were very unlucky in the first half, forcing several corners without any reward. Twice caught on the break by Barca, the Bulls were losing 2-0 at half-time.
Encouraged by great support from the windswept mums and dads, the Bulls kept battling and got back into the game with a well-deserved goal from Max. In an equal second half the Bulls almost drew level, but fell 3-1 behind midway through the half when a corner deflected in off the back of a Barca forward.
Driven on by MOTM Bradley, the Bulls never gave up and created several more chances. Despite the scoreline it was a good performance which deserved a better result.
