All the ups and downs from the world of Paschendale FC

26th April

Paschendales final game of the season pretty much went the way the entire season has gone as they fell 5-3 to a battling Phoenix Rangers B side.

Just over half the team turned up of which only half of them were interested in playing, as the other half were caught napping over again thoughout the match. 4 of the 5 goals scored were probably the worst goals the team have conceded this season and belong on a bloopers reel! 

Maybe the players can learn from the mistake of this season in next seasons campaign

Man of the match went to Pete

12th April

3 sloppy first half goals was enough to give Solihull Astros the 3 pts in todays game the end 3-2.

This was a shame as the football being played by Dale throughout most of the game was tidy and intelligent.

Man of the match went to Daz

9th April

Paschendale went down 2-1 after another hard fought game away to Hawksley Harriers. Dale went one down after a fluke goal in the first half which saw them have most of the play. Second half saw the home team up the pace, but it was Dale that scored first from an Anthony free kick.

Hawksley regained their lead and although Dale battled on, having a goal disallowed in the process the score remain 2-1

Man of the Match went to Pete who was a constant threat throughout

7th April

Paschendales unbeaten run came to a stop when Kings Norton stole a goal in the last 5 minutes to secure a 2-1 win

Dale went in at the break one nil up, however, a change of formation at half time saw a the side get bombarded with attacks

Man of the Match went to Carlo whose shot stopping made secure the score stayed low

5th April

Paschendale go 3 games unbeaten with a 3-1 win over Yardley Celtic.

In a game that saw its fair share of injuries for both sides, Paschendale went one behind after half hour after a free header wasnt picked up. However, Des equalized just before half time.

Two goals by Ant in the last 20 minutes of the game sealed the win for the Dale

29th March

Paschendale picked up their first draw of the season today after a hard fought game against Yardley Chester.

Dale took the lead twice in the first half with ngoals from Ant and Cookie. However, it was Yardley who score first in the early stages of the second half.

A resilient Dale pushed on to the end and grabbed the equalizer 5 minutes from time.

Man of the Match went to Cookie who worked hard up front all game

22nd March

Paschendale chalked up their first away win of the season with a 3-2 win over Warwick Athletic.

The Dale went into the break one up after Des converted a 25yard free kick. However, the second half saw the usual slump in performance which allowed warwick to level the score. This slump lasted some 15 mins mind, as heated words were bounced around from player to player which in turn lit the fire again.

The last 15 minutes saw Dale take the lead again, only to lose it 3 minutes after, then with 2 minutes on the clock get the winner when  Jim headed home his second of the match, earning him the Man of the Match 

15th March

Paschendale went down 6-1 to 2nd place Solihul Astros today.

Better attitude than last weeks game, however too much ball watching led to soft goals being conceded

Man of the match went to goal scorer Jim Hendry

8th March

Yet another lacklustre half-assed performance in the second half from Paschendale saw them lose 4-0  for the 2nd time this season to Moseley Town Colts.

Sloppy, predictable play, accompanied by players giving up once they lost the ball gifted 4 goals to the visitors in the final half hour of the game

This is a shame as there was nothing dividing the 2 teams at the break

Man of the Match went to Carlo for stopping the scoreline from being even more of an embarrassment
