Ralph Anderson

The club has just learnt of the passing of Ralph Anderson who was a life long supporter of The Saints. Even when Ill health started to take its toll Ralph would still  send or bring a cheque up each year to give to the club to go towards the running costs. Our thoughts are with his family at this sad time.

March Fixtures

Saints Win at Home

The Saints beat visiting Waterloo Rovers FC 6-2 to get back to winning ways.

A Jack Biggs double early in the first half saw us go 2-0 up,  the first a penalty after Greg Preece was tripped in the area.

Waterloo fought back and went in at the break 2-2 and were unlucky not to have been awarded a penalty themselves.

A strong second half performance saw four unanswered goals. Jack Evans put us 3-2 up after Preece’s effort hit the underside of the bar.

Adi Lawford finished well to make it 4-2, Evans sent striker Matty Tong through on goal and the youngster finished with slow shot for 5-2.

Tong was then pulled back in the area and the referee pointed to the spot again, Biggs making no mistake with his hat-trick goal for 6-2.

The visitors were awarded a penalty in the 85th minute after Biggs had fouled, however, Tom Bevan cane to the rescue with a good save.

Full Time 6-2

A much better performance to get us back to winning ways.

Many thanks to PCI for sponsoring the game, a representative from the company chose Greg Preece as Man of the match.

Waterloo The Visitors

The Saints host Waterloo Rovers FC in a league fixture.

When the two sides met in the league earlier in the season The Saints were very fortunate to come away with all three points. Waterloo threw everything at us bar the kitchen sink but we held on to win 1-2 on the day. So we are expecting another tough test against a physical experienced side.

Callum Maddy is still banned and Liam McNally misses out(holiday).

The reserves are without a fixture but are home under the lights Tuesday when Talgarth are the visitors.

Saturday

Saints v Waterloo Rovers FC Kick off 2.30pm

Saints Well Beaten

The Saints lost 3-0 and were second best from start to finish yesterday against a powerful Montgomery Town team. Every single player except goal keeper Tom Bevan lost their personal battle, Bevan pulled off several good saves.

After going a goal down in the 32nd minute, scored by Tom Evans the Monty scorer striker, Saints Matty Tong ran past two ‘Monty’ players and put the ball in the back of the net only for the home linesman to bizarrely flag for offside. That though was as good as it got in the first half with Bevan coming to our rescue with two brilliant saves to keep the score at 1-0.

Ht 1-0

The second half continued with the bigger Monty side more hungry for the ball and it wasn’t long before we went 2-0 down. That was soon 3-0 and the game was over for ‘The Saints’.

Bevan pulled off another fantastic save down to his right to keep Evans’ shot out.

We had a good chance for a consultation on 80 minutes but Adi Lawford put his effort wide.

Ft 3-0

We are a young side and it’s showed in the last two games against bigger more powerful teams. There is still a lot to play for between now and the end of the season so it’s not all doom and gloom.
