They just got torn to shreds early and kind of gave up

Seems like more projection from Azzurri...

I don't know, I wasn't there.

Desperation is a good look on you.

Maybe salty with their Reggies coming stone motherless last and first and 3rds needing to get results going their way to have any teams in the finals

Seems like somebody has taken the pretty obvious bait here.

Conclusions

Stacking gate is dominating the ZPL this weekend . Did they or didn’t they? Not sure anyone cares.

Speaking of no one caring more drivel about the bay boy of Swansea.

Speaking of Swansea finally getting a first grade squad on the pitch after suffering a shortage of players across the club from O’35 all three grade, All age team and an U18.

Mayfield keep churning out results, Dudley thump Warner’s Bay and Cooks Hill finally work out how to defend.

Stay safe out there and god bless the ZPL.

How many teams meet the criteria?

Mayfield, Dudley & Warners Bay are the only ones that have the grounds. And maybe Juniors(or could amalgamate).

Really tough match tonight against azzurri, can’t believe we lost. Swear I saw them put up the board to display how much stoppage time and instead of the minutes, it said “UNTIL WE SCORE”… but I digress. The thistles march on to the weekend.

wow crazy stat because for me they are the second hardest team we've played (first being the suns). Are there any players or coaches from Dudley here that would be willing to share why they have had such a hard time on the road?

As an outsider looking in I see their main problem is that they are scoring less goals than their opponent on any given day when playing away from home. Not sure if their coaching staff concur but I'm sure it's something they'll look at.

I’ve seen a lot of them and I’d say it’s cause they have played what looks like close to their best side once all year and that ended in an easy win.

Scoring less goals than your opponent is definitely an issue if you are trying to win. Definitely something worth looking into further.

I find it more concerning that they are conceding more than their opponents.

Why would they argue with the coach - he’s a nice guy. Get on with the rest of your own season…

Maybe they have high standards for each other and hold each other accountable. I’m sure if you head into the Royal Crown after the game you may see the zero issues with each other. Like big boys what happens on the field stays there

Evans Park is the complete opposite of Hexham Arena. Rock Solid. Very firm ground. Watching from the sideline seemed like it was a challenging day for all to try and keep it on the deck

Dudley vs Swansea 2-0

Dudley looked quality today, capitalised on a deflated Swansea outfit helped with a gk error for first goal.

Reserve grade 0-0

Tough day at the office for the bad boy of the league with maybe 1 kick for the day and that was in the 1st minute. Dudley strangled Swansea without the ball and they couldn’t get him any service. The Sunday specials were impressive yesterday.
Hats off to the Swansea reserve grade apparently had a few O35’s filling in but both teams knocked it around well and was as entertaining a 0-0 draw as you will get
