Tough pre-season end with 1 win 1 draw and 2 defeats

We finished off our preseason games last night in a defeat to Didcot Town, but with more positives coming from it, it was a very successful evening.
Holding a Southern League side for 85mins before conceding 2 lates goals is a great result for our young and up and coming side. Didcot had more of the play and created more, however their keeper hd to make a brilliant save to deny Jordan Goddard when through one on one.

We also played against Oxford Senior side Kennington, Hellenic Premier Wantage Town and Thames Valley Champions Reading YMCA.

Beating Kennington 1-0 with Henry Bone scoring the only goal of the game.
Going down 0-3 to a strong Wantage Town side, with all the goals coming in 6 1st half mins. and being held 2-2 by Reading, with new striker Sam Mcdermaid getting both our goals.

Joint manager Paul Berry has said he was pleased with the games and the workrate plus attitude of the lads.
With now a few training sessions on shape and how the team is going to set up through the season planned, we are all ready to go.

We start the season on Saturday 18th with a trip to Chinnor FC, before hosting neighbours Didcot Town Dev on the 25th.
