Weekend Round-up: 31 October / 1 November

The First XI gained their first point of the season, playing very well in drawing 1-1 away to fourth placed Long Lane U23. Gary Smith got his second goal in three games.

Harry Harding got a hat-trick in the Reserves' 3-0 away league win at Roselands Reserves to maintain their 100% league record.

The Saturday Vets had no game but the Saturday Vets Reserves won 5-1 away to Rochester City Vets in the Kent Veterans Cup. Adam Smith (2), Joe McGee (2) and Keith Flynn were on the scoresheet. Joe and Keith for the first time this season and Adam for the first time for FOBG.

The Sunday XI exited the Paul Picard Cup, losing 2-1 to London Warriors at Farrow Fields. James Brand scored.

The Sunday WESFA XI also suffered a home cup exit, losing 6-2 to Eltham United in the Plumstead Challenge Cup. George Osman got both goals for Dan Penn's side.

The Red Vets put in one of their best performances of the season in defeat, losing 6-4 in a closely fought match at home to the traditionally strong Bird in Hand Vets. Dave Lee (2), Robson Ribeiro and Nick Blue were on target.

The Yellow Vets won 2-0 away to another strong team, Charlton Rangers Vets. Their goals were scored by Asa Wilson and Jordan Brown.

The Under 14s Mustangs suffered a bruising 11-2 away league defeat to Warlingham Colts, leaving joint manager Neil Pearce hankering to get back to work on Monday! David Pop scored his first goal for the club with Joseph Hibbs taking the other goal credit.

The Under 12s Stallions were beaten by the odd goal in three away to Kerria FC Warriors Whites in the league, Billy Travers getting his second goal of the season.

The Under 10s Foals did not play, while the Under 8s Broncos thoroughly enjoyed their latest outing, as they have done all season to be fair, no matter the result.
