Stocko v jeso
3rds - called off due to broken leg.
Ressies 1-0
Good to get our first win. Probably should have been a few more but will take the 3 points.
First 0-1
Pretty even until last 20 or so when stocko took control and had a heap of chances. Missed an absolute sitter and were on top until Jeso went down on the counter and scored with the absolute last kick of the game to jag the win.
Didnt get to catch jezo firsts game but heard scraped the win. were looking like good team. 4 from 4 up the boys
First of all best of luck to all the injured guys from Jesmond v Stockton, I know we have heaps and you had a couple too.
I'll leave lower grades as didn't see much apart from our under strength reggies struggling.
Onto 1sts, to say we were lucky is an understatement. Any time a game is won with last kick of game one team can feel themselves hard done by and the other fortunate. Happened to us out at Belswans in FFA Cup and it's horribly draining. We celebrated result and effort, not performance.
I cannot agree with above comment that Stocko took control of whole game, not even close. They did have periods of dominance that's for sure but if wasn't for their goalkeeper, the game would have been gone. He saved brilliantly 1 on 1 in first minute and then a wonderful save in second half in which he would have been unsighted until last second as ball went top right through a crowd. Solid throughout.
As for opposition player suggesting "how much did you pay refs". I guess it's a case of rub of the green as mentioned above. We have already started to address that we weren't good enough and acknowledge we will play better and not get 3 points at times this season.
Rather than blaming others, I wonder if the 2 sitters that were missed, the cheap turnover of possession that lead to the goal, the over commitment of players forward, the not playing the whistle, the not getting goal side fast enough and the not following the runner were all mentioned? Any one of those things could have avoided the goal. It can be easier to blame a 20yo girl (who is doing quite well)and her linesman though. This post is getting long enough to go into but I feel was legit goal.
Good luck going fwd Stocko. Very good outfit and I can't say I'm looking forward to meeting you on your own paddock. Will be tough!
Kotara V Terrace OFF
Charlestown v Cooks Hill United
3rds 1 — 4
Res 2 — 1
1st 0 — 3
no idea, I've just pinched the results off the facebook
The more people that put their reviews on here the more disagreements there'll be as football is a game of opinions. The only truthful way of judging a game is the scoreboard.
I think Rams assessment was pretty correct. The game certainly wasn't dominated by Stockton. Was an arm wrestle until the last 10 or so. Looked as though we would run over the top by the end. But Jeso bagged a goal and the rest is history.
I didn't have a drama with the goal as it looked ok from the sideline. I'm not sure what some of the boys were frustrated about. I think they were arguing there was another player involved in the through ball that may have been in an offside position. Was probably mixed in with some frustration of a hard fought game coming away with nothing.
Anyone from Barnsley going to update SP?
Also I'm hearing Charly are up 2-0 against Stoko 20 mins in.
CHUFC would like to invite the Bero boys for a few frothies and a bit of banter in our new and improved post match facilities at the Athletics Track on Saturday!!!! Just need a collared shirt gents, no need for a jacket or tie
Charlie up 2-1 over stocko. Stocko 12 is an absolute grub. Another game at stockton in a week and yet another ambulance. Hope your all good Shermo
I can't comment on last night's game as I was not there. All the best to the recovering player. But to point fingers at the club as to the high rate of ambulance calls is naïve and idiotic. Firstly the games on the weekend were at Jesmond. Secondly both ambulances on the weekend were called for a 50/50 clash between our keeper and a Jeso player. With the Jeso player receiving a broken leg and our keeper treated for Concussion. This was an incident that could not be avoided. Its a shame that there has been a series of events that has lead to a few injuries.
Two things that piss me off is the fact a bloke on a hat trick who was playing well was dog shotted after the whistle ( Ended up in a neck brace on a spinal board) and the ref hand's out a yellow come on BOO ref.
I like players that play with heart and passion but thugs should be punished.
The result is a Charlie player latter drags him down and he cops a yellow card, this sould never of happened as the Stocko player should have been in the shower.
At the end of the day it's a game yeah accidents happen but players all have lives and jobs off the field.
Rant over
That is a moronic thing to say! Yes there have been ambulances to two of our games but to cite us as the reason for that is ridiculous! We feel for the bloke and definitely hope he is ok. Best wishes to him.
What about the bloke from Charlestown who hit someone shin high with his studs showing on repeated occasions only to give away a free kick. Or the bloke in reserve grade who made severally ill timed tackles throughout the night. But you don't hear us crying murder because no one ended in hospital. It's just fortunate it didn't.
But to blame our club for the ambulances is ridiculous! And something you should think about. It's like saying that Jesmond park should be abandoned for the rest of the season as there was two concussions, two broken legs, broken ribs and a potentially fractured eye socket that took place there on Saturday.
Im not saying it wasn't a careless tackle but when both players who confirmed they didn't hear a whistle both play on and a crunching tackle is made that results in a bloke being hurt. Doesn't mean our club are out to hurt people.
So next time please think about your words before you go making accusations about a club.
Id be more worried about the bloke from Charlestown who was rather quiet at the start of the game. But once a few cans of liquid courage were consumed decided to berate the player with all kinds of foul language in front of women and children. And then once the game was over decided to harass said 'thug' following him to the change rooms and following him into the car park as he left the ground calling him out and threatening him. To me that is 'thug' like behaviour and far more concerning then a few injuries that happen in a game of football.
Thanks to most of the Charlestown boys who generally were in good spirit and great to get along with!
The main issue was the way a handful of the Stockton players reacted to the incident, patting the culprit on the back, high fiving him congratulating him on a "great challenge". Very inconsiderate to a guy laying on the ground clearly in a world of hurt who was hit a good 2 - 3 seconds after a free kick had already been given.
The late hit was very clearly done with intent to harm the Charlestown player, god knows what referees consider to be red card worthy these days.
I Don't usually post on here but to put the tackle/challenge into the "careless" basket or say both players played on is a dead set gee up! Was as blatant a red card (only received yellow for those playing at home) as you will see regardless of the injury! Verbal abuse (not saying is ok as it isn't) doesn't even come close to a guy needing to be loaded into a ambo in a neck brace on a spinal board! to say you would be more worried about the verbals over a player making those sorts of challenges is mind blowing!
Not mentioning any other challenge(s), or the ambos at jeso as didn't see any and don't believe its relevant but was an atrocious challenge so surely you would understand the bloke copped a bit of stick for it. As for the language there was more coming from the pitch from both teams.
I'm not commenting on the above incident but just wanted to gauge people's opinions on the refereeing this year? It's never been fantastic at this level but the lower grade games I've watched this year have been appalling. From a first grade perspective I can't remember a stretch of games with fewer cards (and it's not cause blokes are playing cleaner). The way it's progressing if the ref's don't assert themselves early with a couple of cards the game can just degenerate into a shit fight as blokes try and 'police' it themselves knowing that there aren't consequences. I'm certainly not saying that's what happened last night but from a players perspective you get a bit nervous about injuries due to ref's losing control.
I know nothing can be done about it, but I've certainly noticed it this year more than most. Hopefully it's just been us!!! Interested in people's thoughts?????
Were you inside his mind were you? He went in for a strong challenge to stop the player from dribbling into the box as they both didn't hear the whistle and thought play was still live. It was just unfortunate the player was just a little bit too quick. The only person that night who had the intention to harm was the muppet who had too many cans and thought he was Conor McGregor trying to fight the bloke in the car park. Pretty tough for a bloke who wouldn't go anywhere near the Stocko player in reserve grade
How was it a blatant red card? A head clash warrants a red card these days does it? Well that'll do me
Yes from standing on top of Stockton bridge and hearing the sound the challenge made was definitely only a head clash.... The guy stopped and was relaxed as he heard the whistle, ball was gone and got hammered with clear intent. If you see the challenge as any other way then usually agree to disagree but in this case I find that very hard.
Enough on that from me was good to see the guys get the first points of the year as was clearly needed. Well done lads.
I agree. Move on and agree to disagree.
Surely a reserve grade player chasing a player into the car park threatening and calling out a player is definitely ok then?
Aside from disagreement. How is the bloke who was injured? An update would be great as a few people are wondering and hoping he's ok
