There was just one game involving a D1N team at the weekend. However, it was a big one, a Chairman's Cup Semi-Final in which D1N champions Woodley were bidding to keep their double hopes alive. No games scheduled for next weekend but there is a County Cup game in midweek featuring The Boars reserves team
Chairman's Cup Semi-Final
Woking 1-1 Woodley United (0-3 Pens)
I would imagine that no-one at Woodley wants this season to end. This team just can't stop winning games of football. They were pushed all the way in this semi-final, however, as Woking took them to penalties. Gemma Sims gave Woodley the lead with a lovely free-kick a minute after Woking's keeper was shown a straight red for handling outside the box. The Cards showed great resolve to hit back with an equaliser 4 minutes later through Sheena Nichol. Woodley prevailed 3-0 in the shoot-out through Sophie Measham, May Hamblin and Gemma Sims, with Sophie Cheadle saving the first two Woking kicks.
You can read all about it on the Wandering Tractor (@wanderintractor) blog site or get the Woodley view from their club website. We were also fortunate enough to have three top photographers on hand to capture the action. Take a look at the albums from Oakmist Photography (@oakmistphotos), Andrew Batt (@andrewbatt5) and James Prickett (@prickettpics).
Midweek action this week:
County Cup Quarter Final
Abbey Rangers v Eversley & California Reserves
After being informed that this game will feature Eversley's Reserve team (thank you Ella Chandler), I have had to make a quick edit. Eversley's Reserve side have had a fantastic season and lead the Thames Valley Division 3 South table by four points with a game in hand. Abbey finished mid-table in the Southern Region Div.1 South but were only a point shy of third place (as it stands). There may be a few divisions between the teams but Abbey will need to be on their guard against an Eversley side that has scored 71 goals in 15 league outings.
