Well, we all know that Altrincham can't get relegated

Bentham's a great signing for us! Looking good for 08/09!

Bloody hell. Away at Torquay on a bleedin' Thursday night....

And as no other Yorkshire side could be bothered hanging around in this division for next season, we get Burton for our festive double header.

And to add to that our first home fixture of the season is against Wrexham on a Thursday night 7.45KO because of Setanta.

Patterson and Rudd have both left FC Utd to join Bradford Park Avenue. For those who claim FC are the Chelsea of non league, Bradford have tripled Patterson's wages compared to what he was on at FC.

I´ll pass if it´s all the same to you. Unless it mainly consists of us tearing Shots a new one at our place.

Well, you had to send us down didn't you?





Farsley started their hectic pre-season last night with a 0-0 draw with Port Vale. Good performance, on top for the first half before a host of changes at half-time took any edge out of the game.

How's this for a pre-season schedule though:

Jul 8: Port Vale (H)
Jul 15: Sheffield Utd (H)
Jul 16: Bradford City (H)
Jul 22: Leeds United (H)
Jul 25: Grimsby Town (H)
Jul 26: Lincoln City (H)
Jul 30: Bradford Park Ave (A)
Aug 2: Bridlington Town (A)

We'll be burnt out by February!

Yeah, we´ve got a busy one as well. Boro, Dirty Leeds, Barnsley, Toon, Sheffield FC, Tad Albion and one other that escapes me. Oh aye. Harrogate Railway.

York v Leeds United friendly finished 1-1.
Beckford scored for Leeds.

Fleetwood v Blackpool friendly today..COME ON!!

On show will be our 2 mega signings from witton albion

Football league here we come

Were we any cop?

you drew against Leeds....so no

History in the making tonight - Atherton Collieries against Leigh Genesis, our first game since the name change, c'mon Leyth!

Fair point.

Golf ball lobbed at our keeper's head as well.

Quelle surprise!

Atherton Colls 0 Leigh Genesis 5, very impressive performance and a thoroughly enjoyable evening

my mate reffed it, another was on the line. i was in the refs room at the end when the safety officer and policeman in charge came in and they reported that there were no major incidents. couple of scuffles but nothing worth reporting. as you obviously wern't there i suggest you don't listen to tittle tattle

I wasn't there, obviously, but can't understand why our local rag would lie about it... Everyone at the club seems happy with a version of events where something resembling a golf ball (i.e., a golf ball) was launched from the away end at our keeper's head.


Anyway......
Drew 2-2 with Boro last night. Played alright for about half an hour, but Boro don't look up to much. Afonso Alves clearly couldn't be d with it. Only Julio Arca of their lot impressed me.

Another pre-season game, another 2-2 draw, another last minute equaliser from the team higher up the ladder. We're looking in reasonable shape, though we did the same last year before f---ing it up royally in the first month.

AFC Fylde 1 Leigh Genesis 3, making it four wins and thirteen goals in four games

Farsley's pre-season run so far....

v Port Vale (H) D 0-0
v Sheffield Utd Res (H) W 2-0
v Bradford City (H) W 3-1
v (a fairly strong) Leeds Utd Res (H) W 1-0

And tonight....

Farsley 3-0 Grimsby Town

Just back from Harrogate Railway. Won 2-1, but injuries to a few, most notably to keeper Michael Ingham. Bugger

First defeat of the summer for Leigh Genesis, [url=http://www.thefootballnetwork.net/main/s195/st131280.htmlosing 1-0[/url at home to Woodley Sports.

Seemed far too complacent and the weather didn't exactly help the intensity. Hopefully the wake-up call that we might have needed.

Back to winning ways for Leigh Genesis with [url=http://www.thefootballnetwork.net/main/s195/st131443.htma 1-0 victory over Lancaster[/url, but it could have been by a much bigger margin with a little more luck.
