BLAST FROM THE PAST

Results from the past against this season’s opponents

 

Barton Rovers 3-5 WJFC               31^st October 2004

Our 1^st win in the 04/05 season and we never looked back. First ever match for Mitch & Matt and a jolly fine free-kick from Rossi.

 

WJFC 9-0 Barton Rovers              30^th January 2005

At this stage of the season we were on fire playing with confidence and flair. This was right in the middle of a 13 match unbeaten run.

 

Mayfield 7-2 WJFC                       12^th October 2003 

Before this match both Mayfield and ourselves were struggling. Mayfield won the match and started going up the table whilst we carried on struggling.

 

WJFC 0-6 Mayfield                       14^th December 2003

Mayfield again showed their superiority against us being the more confident side.

 

Mayfield 3-5 WJFC                       14^th November 2004

Our own confidence was bubbling as we travelled to Mayfield with a couple of wins behind us. The team were not to disappoint as Craig & Josh were in fine form.

 

WJFC 8-1 Mayfield                       13^th February 2005

We were proving to be unstoppable and this match was good evidence. We were a side who had strength and skill throughout.

 

WJFC 1-2 Willington                     18^th January 2004

Every time we played Willington it was a close match and this was no different. With both sides struggling it was never going to be a showpiece and alas we lost to the odd goal.

 

Willington 2-1 WJFC                     22^nd February 2004

A month after losing 2-1 to Willington, they completed the double. We were becoming frustrated losing out to our friends & rivals again.

 

WJFC 3-4 Willington                     17^th October 2004

How do you go 3-0 up after 30 mins and lose 4-3. This is how. We ran the game in the first half and then fell apart losing out yet again by the odd goal. It gave us the kick up the back-end that we needed as we never lost another game during the rest of the season.

 

Willington 3-6 WJFC                     23^rd January 2005

At last a win against Willington. The lads were well on form and controlled the match from start to finish. Could we catch the leaders ???

 

WJFC 1-6 Stapenhill                      7^th September 2003

The Club had nearly folded but the parents and players wanted me to carry on and to cap things off, we had no pitch, hence we had to play at Robert Sutton. Off the pitch affairs affected our on pitch form and we were well and truly beaten.

 

 

Stapenhill 1-1 WJFC                      9^th November 2003

It was a local derby and we felt we could win it but it ended honours even. Always well fought matches, it was one of the few points we were to get all season.

 

Stapenhill 3-12 WJFC                    28^th November 2004

At half time it was 3-3 so I will take the credit for my half time team talk ! A superb 2^nd half performance where the lads showed their true potential and made other clubs take note.

 

WJFC 7-1 Stapenhill                      27^th February 2005

As our unbeaten run continued, Stapenhill were swept aside at home. Although it was all square at half time our superiority showed through hitting another 6 goals.

 

Whittington 4-3 WJFC                   10^th October 2004

Still looking for our first win of the season we travelled to Whittington who were putting goals past every team with ease. What a game it was , poised to go either way until the end when the lads ran out of steam due to playing high tempo football throughout the 2^nd half.

 

WJFC 2-2 Whittington                   16^th January 2005

To stand any chance of catching the league leaders, Whittington, we needed to win this one. After going a goal up and controlling the match, two slip-ups put Whittington in the lead until the dying moments when Josh sunk a header into the net. Marvellous game of football by both sides.

 

Stretton Eagles 4-2 WJFC              14^th September 2003

After taking a first half bombardment down the slope at Stretton, we tried to impose ourselves in the 2^nd half. Unfortunately it was not enough as our chasing the game left us vulnerable at the back.

 

WJFC 2-5 Stretton Eagles              16^th November 2003

Another defeat in those dark and dreary days of our first season at 11-a-side.

 

WJFC 5-0 Stretton Eagles              5^th December 2004

We were the unstoppable force and produced another fine performance and at the same time kept a clean sheet.

 

Stretton Eagles 4-7 WJFC              20^th February 2005

This was a Sunday morning kick off with plenty of goals. The lads were awake for this one, especially Craig, who hit all 7 goals. This went a long way towards securing our runners-up spot.

 

Marlborough 2-3 WJFC                 2^nd November 2003

Every time we play Marlborough it is always close, well fought and entertaining. This match played at Shobnall was every bit that giving us our first ever win at 11-a-side. The lads earned a trip to McDonalds for the three points.

 

WJFC 1-1 Marlborough                 1^st February 2004

As we were anchored to bottom spot in the League we were not expecting anything from this one. One of our best performances of the 2003/04 season saw us earn a valuable point in a hard fought draw. We were definitely Marlborough’s bogey team that season.

 

WJFC 3-2 Marlborough                 7^th November 2004

Our 2^nd win in a row against a well organised Marlborough team. A bit of spice was added by Ross AT playing for the first time against his old Club. This win inspired the lads and proved they had the confidence and ability to achieve success.

 

Marlborough 2-3 WJFC                 6^th February 2005

I remember this match well. Played on a rain sodden pitch by two teams who gave their all to try and get the win. Marlborough had the better 1^st half but thankfully we had the better 2^nd half and secured the 3 points which well and truly earmarked us as promotion favourites.
