OWFC on 11th February 2017: W2 D0 L7 GF13 GA44 GD-31

It was an action packed weekend with only the 1s and 2s winning and the 7s, 8s and 9s conceding a combined 29 goals.

The 1s knew that this weekends fixture was the perfect way to get back on track after last weeks cup disappointment. The 1s hadn't lost to opponents Nottsborough in 11 games, a run stretching back to 2011, and it was extended to 12 thanks to a late winner from midfielder Osman Akkaya. Last weeks heavy defeat would have dented the 2s confidence but they showed great character to record a narrow 1-0 win over Civil Service. The only goal of the game came from Chris Kennedy who picked himself up after being fouled in the box to send the 'keeper the wrong way from 12 yards.

And so to the 7 defeats...There were narrow defeats for the 3s, 4s and 6s who lost 3-2, 2-1 and 3-2. The 5s, 7s, 8s and 9s however lost 5-1, 8-1, 9-2 and 12 (twelve)-0. Full match reports from those who submitted them are in this weeks newsletter below.
