The idea of the Blog is to support a small Charity and this season we have chosen "Nottingham Stroke Club". A small charity that relies on fundraising with no paid workers. It offers support to Stroke victims and hold day meetings every Thursday to include a Quiz, lunch, chair exercises and also day trips and holidays. We are to sponsor 25p for each goal we see scored during the 2019-2020 season at matches we attend. Any clubs that would like to pledge or friends/fans please contact me

LAKERS EXTEND LEAD AT THE TOP

Duchy League
Premier Division
GUNNISLAKE AFC 3 NEWLYN EAST AFC 0
ATT: 11
Admission: Free
Coffee: 50p

Two unbeaten sides in the top division of the Duchy League met on a sunny afternoon at Butts Meadow in East Cornwall, with only 2 fixtures being played in the division this afternoon, it was a chance for league leaders Gunnislake AFC to extend their lead at the top.

The First Half was very even but lady luck rode against the visitors when they lost their leaders after 33 minutes and then went the other end to strike the post. Then they were reduced to ten players when a player received a second yellow card.

The Second Half saw the homesters take control of the game but not creating much, but tiring legs and the man advantage saw them break the deadlock in the 70th minute when a scrambled effort from close range by KEVIN McCALLION  saw the ball placed in the net.

The Lakers then extended the lead to 2-0 through a LIAM BRYAN penalty after 75 minutes. Gunnislake sealed their victory on 80 minutes when burst KEVIN McCALLION through on goal to complete his brace and make it 3-0.

I felt that referee Allen Lewis had a very good match.

Both sides did provide good football and were a credit to their league.
