PREMIER DIVISION

Brislington                           3-2          Bitton

Clevedon Town                 2-3          Ashton & Backwell United

Helston Athletic                2-0          Cadbury Heath

Ilfracombe Town              5-2          Bridport

Mousehole                         5-1          Millbrook

Saltash United                   3-2          Buckland Athletic

Street                                   1-1          Keynsham Town

Tavistock                             3-1          Wellington

 

Cracking game at Kimberley- and a welcome win. As Dane pointed out on Radio Cornwall, we didn’t deserve to be loosing at half time. But a missed penalty by Barks and you start to think here we go again. But unlike Ilfracombe and Bridgwater we were playing excellent football. 
Took an inspiration sub when Jarrod Woods came on for Alex Cairo and then Dan Perryman for Reece Thomson and in the last 15 it was all Ashes. Cast iron penalty and Buckland down to 10. Menhenick scores and then in dying seconds Sam Hughes got a 2nd in his 400th game for Ashes.

Cue much celebration from Ashes fans after a hard BH weekend. We deserved that win today!

Tavistock 3 Wellington 1

A still understrength home team were today indebted to Jake Miller for helping out and putting in an industrious display in midfield. The Lambs definitely not at their best and had to grind out a victory against dangerous opponents. They do though, in the main, continue to pick up useful points and the league continues to see a lot of teams more than capable on their day. Helston on Tuesday may well be harder!

Tricky game for me. Long time Bucks fan, but I've gone from watching the Ashes quite often to being a regular this season. Super match and irony of the game was after some lovely football first half the Ashes went in 1-2 !! The spurned chances and good saves this PM from the Bucks keeper made me think it may not be the Ashes day.

Bucks fans unhappy with the second penalty and the referee generally, but Saltash kept at it and on the balance of the game they deserved to win, albeit at the 11th hour!

In truth, Ashes created enough chances to win three games. Bucks can play much better, but they will struggke to score a better goal than the Owen Stockton strike today!

Good to see plenty of faniliar faces backing the Bucks. Fantadtic club! If you've not been to Homers Heath you'll experience great facilities & a warm  welcome. Do go!

I thought Sam Hughes was superb today - congrats to him on reaching 400 games in the red & white. 

Tough game on Wednesday at Exmouth now beckons - hope to be there! Tavi v Helston on Tuesday looks a storming fixtire too.
