CHARITY NON LEAGUE FOOTBALL BLOG


Each year, me and my wife Hazel have decided to help a different CHARITY, by donating 25p every goal we see at the matches we attend.
Over the years, people and clubs from as far as Coxhoe in Durham down to Penzance in Cornwall have donated as we have visited the grounds and we have raised over £3,500 in the 4 seasons we have run the Charity Blog. As you can see from the Photo above, last season(2014-15) we raised £1325.00 for Support Dogs.

During the 2015-16 season, we are supporting 2 worthy causes

1. THE FOXTON CENTRE
2. INTEGRITAS

Both Charities aid homeless people and people with mental issues and vulnerable adults.So if you would
like to make a donation(no matter how small) and
you see me at a match, please come up to me or Hazel, we would be very grateful. All Donators will get a mention on the blog and the running total is on the left hand side.

Many Thanks

Rob & Hazel Hornby

PAUL OF THE ROVERS SEALS THE POINTS

Precision Notts Senior League
Division One
ASHLAND ROVERS FC 1 GEDLING SOUTHBANK FC 0

 This game caught my attention for a couple of reasons, one  both sides being away sides on the Notts Senior League Groundhop and secondly Ashland Rovers havent played a home match since November and had to move home to Healdswood Recreation Ground, Mansfield Road, Stanton Hill, NG17 3EE till the end of the season.

 The game kicked off and it was the home side on the attack for the first ten minutes  but then Southbank got in to the game and looked the more likely to score, though neither side in the first half tested either keeper.

 The Second Half saw a flowing game and the turning point came on the hour, when visiitng attacker Adam Thomas saw his one on one effort fly over the bar. This seemed to wake Ashland up and they raised their game and had two penalty appeals turned down by the referee who I felt had a decent match.

 After 79 minutes, Ashland had a free kick on the left side which was whipped in by Ben Goss which was met by the head of PAUL REVUELTA who beat the visiting keeper to give the homesters the points in a tight game.

 Both sides are a great credit to the Notts Senior League and I hope all will turn out and support local football for the Notts Senior League Groundhop which take place with one match on the Friday evening of 29th April and four matches on 30th April...all information can be found on this LINK
