19 9AM STROKERS Nick Wilde 27
Danny Wilde was asked to take his band of old men and misfits to Eccleston to play in the Premier Division of The Preston and District League. With Tony Naylor's boys now playing in the West Cheshire League and John Hinks second team mob all out on a stag weekend it was up to the Third team to travel to Eccleston.
With only four players left from the 2005/06 Third Division winning squad Danny Wilde has lost the talents of Short, Young, Hodge, Carr, Wilde, Smyth, Sperrin and Camp-bell, he was still positive with his pre-match team talk.
Wilde went on to say, "what has happened in the past must sadly stay in the past, we must move on. This season there will be none of the ale house football from the centre backs, there will be no savage tackling, there will be no swearing at officials, team mates, opponents or spectators". Where has all the fun gone in the beautiful game?
The Match
Trinity kicked with there normal 4-4-2 system into a strong wind. After only 5 minutes Trinity had there first chance. Some smart one touch football from Graham and Wall sending new signing Bart Borat in on goal, only to see his shot hit the upright. It was Borat who was instrumental for Trinitys first goal. A quick break down the right wing leaving all the defenders for dead and with his deep cross Borat found Graham on the edge of the Eccleston and with a superb volley the men in blue were one up.
During the celebration of the goal Trinity striker Lee Mcchunk injured himself doing a forward roll and was carried off by six of his team mates. On came Rushton from the bench and immediately made an impact. From a fantastic defence splitting pass by Coulten found Rushton who out sprinted the Eccleston back four then rounded the keeper and slotted the ball in the net. 2-0.
Half time
The second half was a drab affair with not much happening apart from in the 87 minute George Wall was judged to have committed a foul inside the Trinity box and Eccleston were awarded a penALTY. The Eccleston player made no mistake a dispatched the ball passed a static Trinity keeper.
Final score 2-1. Man of the match George Wall.
The whole thing is a fix with SMY leading the way and no sign of the ex gaffa even in the league

Sorry Kojak, but i thought our Bessie would have had the report on-line by now, as she promised to do them for the season
The lads won 3-1, the Wall twins grabbed a goal each and Steve Young came off the bench, to rifle home a rasping 25 yarder to seal the match in the dying seconds
With one win out of one, stand in player manager Steve Young was under pressure to produce the goods once more, for the absent gaffer Danny “Geldoff” Wilde, who was away in the famine stricken area of Darfur in Sudan, handing out much needed supplies of inner tubes. Young was looking forward to the challenge and had a talented squad of 16 eager players meeting at the Rookery at 12-45pm. By 1-15pm that had dwindled down to 12 players, 4 players did not even bother crying off.
1. Adam Drewitt. Still looking for his dummy on Devonshire Road from Tuesday night.
2. Paul Farrel. Family commitments
3+4. Martin Gautrey and Simon Rushton, both of these were spotted at the B.N.P party conference.
These four have had there registration forms burnt by new club secretary John “El Beardo” Funnel, and in his own words, “ will only play for this club again over my dead body”
The match got underway with Trinity fielding a reshuffled side, which included two second team players Jay Ashton and Andy Curry, even last seasons double player of the year Steve Young made probably his one and only start of the campaign.
The first 15 minutes were fairly level with both sides spurning good chance, then in the 19th minute the home side broke the dead lock, when slack marking in the area from George Wall allowed the opposing teams striker time to turn and slot the ball under the onrushing Phil Black in the Trinity goal. Trinity were soon back on level terms when Paul “the puppet master” Graham threaded the ball through to Curry, who finished with aplomb, within 2 minutes of the restart the Roe Lane based outfit were in front and it was that man Curry again, this time nut megging the last defender and finishing with anapple. The same player completed his hat trick 3 minutes later (setting a new Preston and District league record for this feat of 6 minutes 12 seconds, shattering the previous time of 8 minutes 28 seconds which was held by Chris Hodge, also of Trinity and has stood for 29 years) to send the away side into the interval with a 2 goal advantage. half time 3-1
Trinity started the second half kicking down the slope attacking the end where there massed ranks of fans were standing and what fine voice they were in as well, why not, I here you say, now they can watch some proper football being played, especially with the like of Rushton, Short, Hodge, Moran, Abram (rip) and Trewitt all gone, the long, physical, sometimes, more often than not cynical game has well and truly departed the famous black and blue jersey’s.
The two goal advantage should have been more after the opening spell of the second period, Andy Wall Being the main culprit, although he was unlucky on one occasion rattling the under side of the bar from distance, but his other efforts had rattled the corner flags either side of the goal. He may also find himself in trouble with the RSPB, as one particular effort was that far away from the target it dislodged a pair of migrating Artic Terns from there nest in an 80ft conifer tree in an adjacent field, a pair of mating Terns have never successfully nested in this country before, they were last seen flying due north back to the polar ice cap.
Trinity then conceded a sloppy goal to make things tense, but with 10 minutes left on the clock, Danny Wilde’s summer signing from Krakopen Warsaw, Bart Sparticus, scored a stunning solo goal to ease the pressure. To there credit Chipping never gave in and when Andy Hockey was turned in the area the home side reduced the deficit once again. With the clock ticking down, the old warhorse Steve Young made a rare forage forward and unleashed a bullet of a shot from his trusty right boot, only to see the ball bounce back off the upright, but fortunately Wall was on hand to tap the ball into an empty net. full-time 5-3
