Packhorse  2-1 downderry  Ian Lee mark place scorers should have been more packhorse  looking good still players missing  scratch side bur won well done

[Bumdingo]

Packhorse 2 Downderry 1. Fairly evenly contested game at Blaise Park, the home side could have been a couple of goals to the good but for some errant finishing. Downderry took the lead late in the first half, a driven cross toe poked home, wrong footing our keeper. Second half followed the same pattern but a deserved equaliser came from a 30 yard strike which dipped over the Downderry keeper. The winner came with about 10 minutes to go, having wasted a few chances early on Mark Place had the defence back tracking, opened his body up to bury bottom corner from outside the box. We've been the whipping boys for a few seasons (but enjoyed the ride), with a new management structure in place we hope to convert effort and endeavour into points whilst still retaining the enjoyment of playing vets football. Downderry gave us a good game and as usual were great sports. Next up St Dennis, whilst I'm not sure they'll be quaking in their boots hopefully we can enjoy a evenly contested game of football as well as their hospitality.

scratching around for a team at 10am is hardly great,no doubt next week at home we will have 20 available,great effort by the guys that did turn up n we should look forward to next week,hope the boys that played today come next week n we smash packhorse!

good luck to holmans for rest of season,personally think they deserved all 3 points but luckily for us we got a draw

St Agnes 1-0 Penzance

The winner, scored in the 8th minute from a glancing header from the 6yd line after a run and cross from the right at the bottom goal. An even first half, second half Pz were the stronger but even if they were playing 24hrs later neither team would add to that score. 

Attendance of 9 including 4 from Pz.

Yes, agree, good game played in the right spirit and great attitudes on the pitch.  Long may it continue.
