MATCH REPORT: Allard
Super Sub as Late Winner Takes City Through in Trophy (24/11/07)
City marched on into the 1st Round proper of the FA Trophy
with a hard fought victory over lower division Uxbridge, a
last gasp strike from sub Alex Allard finally enough to kill
off the resistance from the West London outfit. It was a good
demonstration of some new found character and confidence from
a City side now proudly boasting a nine game unbeaten run
after our early season woes - after seeing Uxbridge force
themsleves back into the match during the second half we didn't
lose our bottle or fold. The Trophy run has really lifted
the club and provided some much needed prize money, and the
delight of...MORE TO COME...

MATCH PREVIEW: City
Youngsters Head to Worcester for 'Low-Key' Cup Tie (20/11/07)
This Southern League Cup tie has become so low-key its
almost being played in secret, and it seems as if two experimental
teams will take the field at Worcester's St. George's Lane tonight.
Evesham United are the tenants at the ground while their own new
home is being built, but unlike City the time in rented accomodation
seems to have done The Robins little harm, lying 8th in the Midland
Division and well placed with games in hand. Even more impressive
and ominous has been their cup form, losing out only in a replay
to Blue Square Premier Halifax in the FA Cup having knocked out
Halesowen and... |

NEWS: Price Rise as Jamie
Leaves for Worcester City
(31/10/07)
City have announced that Welsh youth midfielder Jamie
Price has been allowed to leave the club and has signed for
Blue Square North side Worcester City. The lank-haired left sided
player arrived at City at the end of August having spent a frustrating
summer trying to find a new club since being released by Birmingham
City. Price showed an immediate touch of class and obviously has
great talent, but after a bright start he soon seemed to lose
his way and struggled to make his mark on matches. The 19 year-old
made nine appearances for us but has been unavailable in recent
weeks as he completed a...

YOUTH TEAM:
City Cubs Hit Glory Trail as Merthyr Magic Sets Up 1st Round Tie
(24/10/07)
City's recent love affair with the FA Youth Cup continued
after the young Tigers produced a glorious 1-0 win to edge out
a very strong Merthyr Tydfil side to reach the 1st Round proper
of the FA Youth Cup tonight. The u-18s now face the exciting prospect
of another trip to Wales, this time to face the youth side of
Swansea City in a match that offers the youngsters a footnote
in club history. The Youth Team must have feared the worst when
the draw of the national youth cup competition took place in the
summer. Not only did the u-18s face a long trip to face Blue Square
Premier outfit Exeter City in the... |

TERRACE TRASH: Bluffers
Guide to the Southern League Premier Season (18/08/07)
A few seasons ago we made a rash attempt to offer ourselves
up for a season of ridicule by doing our best to predict what
the season ahead held for our division. We have a proud record
of getting one or two things right and even more wrong, most embarrassingly
misplacing Taunton in Devon a few years ago. Anyway, we've done
our best to track all the usual close season intrigue so that
you can make one or two well educated comments at our first few
games and impress your mates with your in-depth knowledge. Be
careful though, our crystal ball has previously seemed to have
been swapped in the night for one of those plastic snowshakers
that just leaves you staring... |
