So we all rocked up to the Everbuild Wez hoping for a similar display to the previous 2 games
What we got was a distillation of all the bad bits (& there were plenty of them) from the PSFs against…
If Saturdays tactics were Muhammad Ali Rope-a-dope, then last night was a mixture of Vinny Pazienza & Herol Graham (you enjoying this Gareth??).
For 60 minutes we played high intensity, in your face football (as typified by Brad Wells) &…

Frickley 1 Barton Town 0
Frickley were excellent in parts & sloppy in parts as they overcame spirited opposition in Barton Town (who had ex Blues Noel 'Bird Man' Burdett & Charlie Fisher in their line up). Although we comfortably…
