Division A League winners lined up against Division B League winners in the League Cup Final.
Two Goals from Corey Edwards, his first after just 11 seconds following a great run into the box, he made it 2-0 shortly after! Arran got his name on the score sheet after a quick break from the Rams, Tom crossed the ball in from the left wing, Corey's shot was parried by the keeper, but Arran Gill was on hand to fire home the rebound. Half time the Rams were 3-0 up!
The Tornadoes worked hard to get back into the game, and with a Rams player down injured on the half way line they got their break 3-1. This lifted the Division B winners who tried hard to get another goal, forcing a succession of corners, but the boys in red & white defended really well. A late free kick was awarded to the Rams after a great run down the right wing from James was brought to an end with a late challenge. Tom Scott placed the ball and curled a fantastic free kick up and over the wall and goalkeeper to cap a fine performance.
A famous League and Cup double in their first competitive season!
Fantastic performance from each and every one of the Rams players, well done lads, truly worthy winners!

Upton Youth 0 Bulls 3 (Friendly)
A super performance from the Bulls against good quality opposition.
Upton Youth are already preparing for life in Division B next season and used the match to trial several new players. Using several subs gave the home team the advantage of fresh legs on a warm day, but it was the Bulls superior teamwork that won the day.
A hard fought first half ended goalless, with the Bulls strikers being shadowed by a mountain of a defender and the Bulls defenders coping well with the fast and skilful Upton attack.
The Bulls have practised corner kicks almost every week this season and early in the second half they showed what a great attacking weapon it can be. Janni ran in to connect with Max's wicked, whipped corner and his header flew into the net like a bullet. Unstoppable! One-nil to the Bulls...
Motm Callum created the second goal, steaming through the Upton defence before picking out Olly's perfectly timed box-to-box run. Great team play. Two-nil away, against the champions!
Upton Youth kept battling to get back into the game, but the Bulls put the game beyond doubt with a great passing move. Josh (who had another awesome game in defence - fast, strong, determined- super performance!) won yet another tackle on the edge of the Bull's area and broke quickly out of defence. Looking up, he found Callum in space with a perfect pass. Callum sprinted towards goal and slipped the ball past the home defence to leave Max one-on-one against the Upton keeper. An ice-cool finish - 0-3!
An excellent all-round performance. Well organised in defence, fierce in midfield, deadly in attack. Well done Bulls, keep it up!

Rams 4 NW Barca 1
The Rams capped off an impressive season in style with a home win against NW Barca. Farnham Park has been a fortress for the Rams this season who maintained their undefeated home record!
Corey Edwards opened the scoring after a good early pressure for the Rams his shot was deflected in off the defender, 1-0. The Rams continued to work the ball well trying to find a second goal, Arran and Callum combined well down the left hand side. The New Windsor keeper was again in good form denying several efforts at goal from the home side. Tom Scott made it two nil with a wicked free kick smashed into the top corner from well outside the box. Jamie made a great save to deny a long range effort from the visitors and Connor and Callum worked hard in defence to ensure the home side finnished two up at the interval.
Lewis made it 4-1 with a great solo effort running the length of the pitch to cooly finnish past the Windsor keeper. Man of the match was James Heady for a great performance, he was lively and energetic throughout, making some good runs down the right wing and was unfortunate not to get on the score sheet with several efforts narrowly missing the target.
Another fine team performance from every single player and an early Birthday present for the Rams manager!

The second half the league leaders continued to dominate possession but Windsor were not beaten and hit us on the break with a long ball that was picked up by the pacey striker who took on the last defender and fired the ball into the bottom corner leaving Connor in goal with no chance, 2-1. Windsor lifted by their goal went in search of the equaliser but after the home side cleared the corner, they played fantastic counter attacking football, quickly passing the ball up the pitch, Tom Scott put a great final pass to put Corey in on goal, who made no mistake with the finnish, cheekily chipping the ball ''Theo Walcott'' style over the oncoming keeper, 3-1.

Bulls 4 Holtspur Bucks 0
A much improved performance from the Bulls to round off the season.
The Bulls shared MOTM this week so everybody deserves a mention:
Josh : Stayed alert in goal to earn the Bulls first clean sheet of the season. Good kicking too.
Jack : A solid debut. No mistakes and several important tackles and clearances.
Olly : A captain's performance, keeping the defence well organised. Developed a good short corner routine with Lewis (well done boys, let's see more of that in the summer tournaments!)
Callum : As usual Callum's energy and strength made a huge difference to the Bulls in midfield. Rounded off the scoring with a delicate chip from outside of the area.
Lewis : Worked his socks off in midfield. Took up some great positions and linked up intelligently with his team mates. Maybe Lewis's best all round performance of the season. Well done.
Max : Continued his improvement adding some nice skills to his usual 100% effort. Finally grabbed his first goal of the season in the last few minutes of the very last game. Well done for never giving up!
Janni : The opposition manager spent most of the game shouting "Watch the number 10. Watch the number 10". Maybe he wanted his players to pick up some goalscoring tips. Sure enough the Bulls top goalscorer nicked a goal in each half to show them how it's done.
Holtspur are an improving team who battle away with a lot of spirit. Playing without subs was tough for the Bulls and a few players really needed a rest during the second half. That fact that the Bulls kept going shows how much the boys have improved their fitness during the season. It was good to see some nice passing movements too.
Well done Bulls. A much better performance and a well deserved win.
