Match Postponed due to Water logged pitch

Harefield United 3 Bulls 0

A harsh scoreline as the game was pretty even throughout. The Bulls had the better of the first half and came close to taking the lead. Losing Bradley, who was having another excellent game, early in the second half allowed Harefield to gradually take charge in midfield. The Bulls went a goal down halfway through the second half, but kept battling on a muddy pitch. Two late Harefield goals were hard on the Bulls. Max picked up motm for continuing to give 100% right to the end.

Hillingdon Youth Blacks 2 Bulls 0

An uphill task for the Bulls facing an exceptional opponent on a huge pitch. The Bulls struggled to get out of our half for much of the game, but showed determination and discipline in defence.

Alfie's heroics in goal kept the score down to one-nil at half time. The second half was almost a repeat of the first. With Hillingdon Youth's star player breaking up every potential attack in midfield, goalscoring chances were hard to come by.

There were some bright spots. Sam picked up motm on his debut, having made an immediate impression in defence and attack. Max adapted to a defensive role well in the second half, Oliver played with his usual calm determination, Joel continued his improvement and Janni never gave up looking for a goal. Most of all, Josh and Bradley in midfield showed fantastic effort, making dozens of tackles, always chasing back and still having the energy to push forward.

Overall a hard game, a fair result and several encouraging performances.

Bedfont 1 Rams 4

An in form Sean Chivers continued his goalscoring run for the Rams with another good finnish, James Heady made it two nil from his long range effort with a bit of help from their goalkeeper! After a dominant 1st half display from the Rams, Sean doubled his tally for the day with another fine strike from an accute angle, thats 4 goals in his last 2 games.

In the second half Bedfont tried to get back into the game but solid defending from Connor Campbell and MOTM Ben Hillier put up a strong resistance. Bedfont did get a consolation goal after a quick breakaway by their pacey striker. Late on Thomas Scott also got on the score sheet with a typical poachers goal in the box reacting first to the loose ball and notching up an impressive 20th goal of the season!

Rams 3 Hillingdon Youth Blacks 2

A sublime free kick from MOTM Sean Chivers got the Rams under way before he hit a spectacular long range effort into the top corner. Tom Scott struck to make it 3 nil at half time with a dominant first half performance.

The second half saw Hillingdon pile on the pressure looking for a way back into the match and they did so with two goals in quick succession from their girl of the match who was outstanding throughout the game.

The Blacks kept on pushing for the equaliser but the Rams held onto their lead with some good defending by Connor and Ben.

An enthralling match and another win for the Rams who remain undefeated in 2008.

Bulls 2 Hillingdon Youth Reds 3

A close game between two evenly matched teams. The Bulls took a first half lead through motm Arran and had most of the early possession. A slightly unfortunate equaliser put the sides level at half time and Hillingdon Youth began to get on top early in the second half. A couple of good saves from Oliver kept the Bulls on equal terms until the Reds scored two goals in quick succession. Lewis then set up the Bull's second goal with an excellent cross which was coolly tucked away by Janni (3 goals in the last 4 games!). The Bulls looked capable of snatching an equaliser but couldn't quite find a way through against a good defence.
