PLAYERS TO MEET 12.45 AT MORRISSONS
FC ST GEORGE 3 - 3 FOX & HOUNDS
Division Twos newboys Fox & Hounds come back from 3-1 to earn a respectable draw in what looks like yet another Annual Derby Game .This was The Warminster side's first game together and it showed in the first half, but they soon fused with each other and made this a entertaining game for the Watching Masses.With 8 of Fc's first team players absent Player Manager Glasson plunged his youngsters into the Game.Daniel Romian the clubs third choice keeper showed some comfortable handling, while defender Nathan Phelps put in another good performance, but the best of the crop was striker Jamie Davis who scored the homesides second with his back to goal from 12 yards. Mark Wallis continued his scoring streak with the opening Goal on twenty minutes. Jamies came seven minutes later. The hounds came back into the game with a bullet shot from ten yards on the half hr. A good spell of presure by the homeside saw another Jamie special lobbing the keeper to make it 3-1. The second half was all Hounds as they took the game to Glassons side.
and thier pressure paid off when they scored from a set peice just outside the box. Gareth Midcalf and Craig Wilson replaced Jamie Davis and Phelps and Glasson went to a 4-5-1, it seemes to work as the homeside soaked up the pressure but with a minute to go the hounds won a freekick which eventually found itself into the net. final score 3-3
FC ST GEORGE 7 V 5 NORTON NOMADS
Fc St George's fourth friendly was again played on the short obscure Portway Pitch. Not ideal but it was a good run on for both sides. Norton Nomads have been a favorite side of Player-Manager Glasson he sees them as "decent young side waiting for the right season" . The Radstock side travelled light with the bulk of thier attacking players missing, but were not missed as thier replacements did enough damage in the first twenty minutes to make the homeside sit up and listen.Tarrants side took a early two nil lead which woke up Glassons side who were missing at least six key players.Glasson was able to give Youngsters Daniel Romain, Nathan Phelps and Jamie Davies starts and they all made impressive performances and Craig Wilson came on as sub to finish off the quartet. Going behind two nil stirred up the saints, and they responsed well with goals from Mark wallis and Jamie Davies. Nomads then made it 4-2 with another two goals in quick succession, Again Fc St george responded well with Goals from Chris Ayres, Stu Green and Mikey Payne to take a 5-4 lead into the second half.It was a evenly matched second half with both defences working overtime, but it was Nomads who worked a good equaliser on 70 minutes and then took the game searching for the winner.However it was the homesides Mikey Paynes second half brace in the last seven minutes that secured the win.

AUGUST 17TH
FORRESTERS ARMS 5 V 1 FC ST GEORGE
Fc St George Travelled to Beckington without Sean Holton and Damian Holton ,Chris Ayres Mikey Payne or simon clark . But the squad Glasson put out was a decent strong squad which evenly matched thier hosts who had come down from the division they had been promoted too. The first half was end to end with chances each end. And against the run of play in the last twenty of the first half the home side took a 1-0 lead after Left back Mark self left the ball for Keeper Stuart Green who fluffed the easist of clearances and the striker had time to run the ball into the net 1-0. Wallis did have the ball in the net ten minutes later but was deemed offside. The second half got off to the same tempo and Wallis grabbed a deserved equaliser. This however spurned the homeside into dominating the rest of the match. Fc's Da Silva and Lee kennedy went off injured. replaceensts youngsters Craig wilson and Nathan Phelps who are finding it hard to adjust to this level of football continue to get the confidence with there run out . But were not experiance enough to help stem the home sides domination of the game and they found that extra wind and scored another 4 goals. final score 5-1
