Anchorians
Athletic 1 Vs Old Oak
Reserves 3
Charity Cup
Quarter Final
Oaks recent run
of good form in cup competitions lead them to another quarter
final, once again against a team from a higher division. (Anchorians
Athletic from division 2), the home team started brightly and
nearly took the lead with a couple of well-worked early chances.
However it was the Oak Reserves who took the initiative, a
Robbie Walburton shot pinged back off the post and was half
cleared before Paul Fookes headed back to the edge of the area
for John Showler to, on the volley smash home the opener.
The half looked like it would end with the Sittingbourne
side coming in one up but Anchorians had other ideas, another
good move stretched the Oak defence and a neat cut back lead to
the home sides equaliser. 1
- 1
The Oak pressed
forward looking to regain their lead, forcing a corner. Paul
Fookes whipped the ball in; it took a bounce and flew in the
bottom corner 2-1 Oak.
The second half
was a similar affair with both sides pushing forward, Anchorians
looked as if they would get a equaliser, and came close on a
couple of occasions, Andy Hopkinson making some great saves to
maintain the Oaks lead.
It was John
Showler who finally settled the game with 20 minutes to play the
ball bounced out of the Anchorians area and from 20 yards was
powered crisply into the top left corner.
There
was a few edgy moment towards the end of the game, Anchorians
earning a penalty from a unlucky Simon Hutchins hand ball,
however the home side failed to convert and the Oak march on to
the semi final of another cup competition. Let’s hope all this
hard work leads to at least one final.
Sat 15th January 2005: Weald Of
Kent Senior Charity Cup 1st rd
Woodstock Park 0 Betteshanger
Welfare 0 AET Woodstock won 3-0 on Penalties
Having lost narrowly twice already
this season to unbeaten league leaders Betteshanger, Woodstock
were in no mood to make it third time unlucky this week in the
Weald of Kent Charity Cup.
Some very resolute defending from
the Sittingbourne side was the feature from a team who
previously had kept only one clean sheet all season. After 120
minutes there was no score and they were very happy with
their efforts. Woodstock were even more pleased
with the performance of young centre half Peter Halls playing
his first full game since being sidelined for several weeks
with injury.
For the second week running it was
a dramatic penalty shoot out to decide the match and just like
last weeks win over Sheppey Utd the home sides veteran
keeper Mark Rees was the hero. He made it even easier this time
around by saving Betteshanger's first two efforts and with
Aaron Hayward, Simon Davies and Richard King netting Woodstock's
first three it was enough to put the visitors third taker off and
he blasted wide for a 3-0 home win. Full marks also to
Simon Davies who has sat on the bench for most of this season
but he was still confident enough to slot the second penalty
away after playing a big part in extra time coming on yet
again in the role of super sub.
Woodstock travel to old rivals
Tyler Hill next week in the league with a 2pm kick off.
Sun 16th January 2005: MMSFL
Junior Charity Cup 2nd Round
Old Oak Reserves 4 Lloyds
Sports and Social Reserves 1
Old Oaks first team did not have a
game this week and it was up to their reserves to carry on the
clubs good cup traditions with the hope of booking a place in
the quarter final of the league charity cup.
They went a goal down in the first
half to Lloyds Reserves and with much of their play bitty and
disjointed it seemed that there was no way back for the Home
team. The score was still 1-0 to the visitors with 15 minutes
left and suddenly it all clicked for the Oak who are to be
fair having a good season and had beaten Lloyds comfortably in
an earlier encounter. They soon got over Rob Warburton's
penalty miss and a rapid hat-trick from Alex Johnson his
second of the season to add to one from Roy Sams gave the Oak
a very good 4-1 win.
British Energy Kent County
Football Association League Inter Regional Challenge Cup
Rd 3 Sat 8.1.05 Woodstock Park
3 Sheppey Utd 3 AET 4-2 on penalties
The all Division One East clash in
the Inter Regional Challenge Cup 3rd round saw a local derby
between Woodstock Park and Sheppey and it took a penalty
shoot out to decide the winners.
Woodstock suffered their biggest
defeat of the season in the away league match before Christmas
and they were in the mood for revenge in this game. They
dominated the first half and goals from James Ellis (penalty)
and Aaron Hayward gave them a 2-0 half time lead. Sheppey
missed the chance to halve the deficit before the break
missing a first half penalty.
The second half was dominated by
the visitors Sheppey and they brought the match level at 2-2
by the end of the 90 minutes. Sheppey also
dominated the first period of extra time and were on
course for victory thanks to the three goals in the hour that
they were on top from Jamie Allen, Andy Keay and Lenny Whiting.
The second period of extra time
and it was the home sides turn again to be on top
using all three subs to good advantage. With time running
out Woodstock threw everything at Sheppey and at times it
seemed that player manager Mick Rees was the lone defender.
Russell Booth brought a fine save from the visiting keeper,
and in another attack beat him only to see his goal bound
shot handled on the line. The visiting player was sent off but
Terry Smiths weak penalty was easily saved.
Booth made it third time lucky
when he capped a fine performance by scoring with a low shot
from the edge of the box in the 120th minute to force the
tie to penalties at 3-3 or a better description an hour
of play each!
Penalties decided it in the
home teams favour and James Ellis, Aaron Hayward, Terry Smith
and Richard King scored the four that were needed with
Woodstock's evergreen keeper Mark Rees saving two of
the Sheppey penalties for a 4-2 victory. Woodstock now
travel to premier division Lydd Town on the 5th February in
the Quarter Finals. Next week Woodstock are at home in
The Weald of Kent Charity Cup against the Division One East
unbeaten leaders Betteshanger Welfare kick off 1.30pm at
the Park.
Medway Messenger Sunday
Football League Senior League Cup Semi Final
Sun 9.1.05 Old Oak 2
Cricketers Utd 0
In their 30 years in the Medway
League Old Oak have managed to win all the various cup
competitions apart from the Senior League Cup where they have
never even reached the final before. It really has been their
bogey competition going out usually at the first hurdle.
It is with some amazement then
that in their worst season ever where they are rock
bottom of the Senior Section that the hoodoo has finally
been broken. On Sunday they beat Cricketers Utd against
the odds and the form book in the Semi Final 2-0. Cricketers
had already beaten them in the league and knocked them out of
the Kent Cup. On thirty minutes a quick Mick Rees free kick
put Scotty Crammond in on goal and the player was brought down
for James Ellis to convert the penalty.
Cricketers were given an immediate
lifeline when they were awarded a penalty for what seemed
more ball to hand then anything, their penalty however,
crashed against the bar. The second half saw Oak defend well
and ride their luck a bit. As Cricketers pressed Oak were
having some success with counter attacks and twice Aaron
Hayward could have ended the game going close with one break
and hitting the post on another.
Finally with three minutes
left James Ellis ended the contest when he rounded the
keeper for 2-0 and the start of some wild celebrations that
went on all afternoon. Oak do not have a game next
week.
Swallow rise
93 Vs Old Oak Res
09.01.05
League
Oak Reserves
were away this week to league leaders Swallow Rise, playing on
what can only be described as poor pitch, the first half was a
scrappy affair. Both teams however did create chances and Oak
probably the better, John Showler displaying some neat flicks
and strength to carve out a couple of opportunities but to no
avail.
The second half
was much the same with chances at both ends, the best being a
well worked move from Oak finishing with Al Johnson rounding the
keeper only to fire just wide of the mark. With the score still
0 – 0 and 15 minutes to play the home side forced the issue,
bringing some resilient defending from the Oak back five.
The game finished 0-0
Oak Res now
need to regain some of their pre-Christmas form if they are to
challenge for the league title.
British Energy Kent County
League Division One East
Woodstock Park 2 Betteshanger 3
After last weeks upset by knocking
Premier outfit Snodland out of the cup Woodstock Park came
back down to earth with a home defeat against one of only two
unbeaten teams in the division Betteshanger.
The Sittingbourne side have a good
past record against the team from Deal but this year their
visitors have hit a purple patch. Without top marksman James
Ellis Woodstock had to rely on Aaron Hayward and Terry Smith
to twice bring them back level at 1-1 and then 2-2.
2-2 would have been a fair result
on the day but when you are on the sort of run Betteshanger
are having you do get scruffy last minute winners.
Sunday 28th November 2004
Medway Messenger Sunday
Football League Senior League Cup.
Old Oak 4 Pegasus 2
Oak's league form and ability to
even field a team has been woeful of late but on Sunday they
had at last something to cheer about in the Cup.
There had been much talk about
this game with The Medway papers predicting a cup upset from
the team from the Premier Division, Pegasus. Oak fielded just
about their strongest team for many weeks and they were
up for this one with their first goal coming straight
from the kick off at the start of the match! Only two
players touched the ball Adam Overton and Chris Pearce with
Pearce the scorer in one of the fastest goals ever. All you
could say was that it was less than a minute !
Overton scored a second with
a good bit of skill but the visitors pulled one back just
before half time. When Pegasus equalised early in the second
half it was time to gamble. The injured but prolific James
Ellis was thrown into the fray and first his cross shot was
turned in by Pearce and a 4th goal came the courtesy of
his own boot and skill.
This competition is a bogey
one for the Sittingbourne side as they almost always go out in
the first round. In 1992 they did lose in the semi-final
however and this is the stage they have now reached this year.
Saturday
20.11.04
The Bill Manklow Inter-Regional
Challenge Cup 2nd Round
Woodstock Park 2 Snodland 1
During Woodstock's first two
seasons in the County League they could not buy a cup
win but this year all that has changed as they seem to be
saving some of their best performances for the cups.
On Saturday they caused something
of an upset as they knocked out a team from the higher divsion
when they won by the odd goal in three at home to Premier
division Snodland.
Richard King gave the
Sittingbourne side a first half lead with a fine strike and
for much of a very even game it seemed that could be the final
score.
Snodland did press very hard in
the second half but for once the Woodstock team were putting
in a much better defensive performance. However, when Rob Wade
equalised it was no more than the visitors had deserved.
Within a few minutes though Woodstock were back in front when
top marksman James Ellis restored their lead which they held
onto until the final whistle. For the first time this season
the home team Manager Mick Rees was happy with his teams
defending.
The third round will see Woodstock
at home to Sheppey United on the 8.1.05. Next week they
are back in League action at home to unbeaten Betteshanger
with the kick off at The Park 2.00pm
Sunday 21.11.04
MMSFL Senior Section
Sheppey United 5 Old Oak 1
With nine first team regulars missing it was
very much down to just 11 fit men including two goalkeepers
and an injured player for the trip to Sheppey. This really is
a torrid time for the Sittingbourne team as they have been
unable to field the same team two weeks running all season and
things really cauight up with them this week.
The missing players almost amount to a whole
team and whilst those who were left gave the best display they
could they were still sent crashing 5-1 by Sheppey United.
The Sittingbourne sides consolation being
scored by leading goalscorer Adam Overton.
Oak are rooted to the bottom of the table and
will be hoping to get back at least half of their missing
players for a league cup quarter final next week at home
to Pegasus 81.
Kent Junior Cup 2nd round replay
Old Oak Res 3 Plough and Chequers 2
Oak's first team could not call on any help
from their reserves this week as they were down to just 11 fit
men for the third division teams Kent Cup replay at home to
Premier Division Plough and Chequers.
To give them two subs for what had the makings
of another marathon match like the first one they pressed into
service two players carrying injuries Ian Clay and Kevin Dunk.
Clay had a good first half in the Oak defence and Dunk had an
even better one in midfield scoring two goals to give his side
a 2-0 half time lead. Neither Clay or Dunk were fit enough to
take the field in the second half and they were replaced by
manager Darren Small and Paul Fookes.
Plough and Chequers showed why they were three
divisions higher than Oak in the second half and they were
soon back on level terms at 2-2. With minutes to go and Oak
reserves dreading extra time like the first game super sub
Fookes crashed home the winner in emphatic style. Both rounds
have taken extra time and replays and the reward for all Oaks
hard work is a third round match at home on the 5.12.04 to yet
another Premier division side Pentagon. Next Sunday Oak are
away to Inter Sports at Snodhurst bottom knowing a win will
put them top of division three. Oaks injury list for both
teams is the main cause for concern.
7.11.04
Kent Junior Cup
Old Oak
Reserves from division three of the Medway Messenger Sunday
Football League travelled to premiership opposition Plough and
Chequers this week for the second round of the Kent Junior Cup
looking for their seventh straight victory. Hopes of maintaining
this rich vein of form were soon under threat, and after a
couple of lapses in concentration they found themselves 2-0 down
by half time.
The
half-time team talk seemed to do the trick as Oak came out
quickest in the second half, and soon pulled one back after a
quick free kick from Roy Sams let in
Martin Walker to score. Oak went onto dominate the second half
and thoroughly deserved their Robbie Warburton equalizer.
Extra
time was very open with a lot of tired legs, and when what was
by now a nine man Chequers took the lead it looked like a lot of
hard work could have gone to waste for the Sittingbourne side. A
Kevin Dunk penalty ensured this wasn’t the case, final score
3-3 and a replay fixed for Woodstock Park Sunday 21st
November 2004 kick
off 10.30am.
30.10.04
British Energy Kent County
Football Association League Division One East
Woodstock Park 4 University of
Kent 3
This was a thrilling game for
everyone except the team managers and home manager Mick Rees
was not a happy man following his teams narrow win. Woodstock
are exciting going forward but they keep very few clean sheets
and this is something that they will have to deal with if
they are to progress. Woodstock would be top of the division
this week but they are the one team in the top half of the
table to suffer from the sad recent withdrawal of Snowdown CW.
Losing those three points and six
goals from the Snowdown game meant that Woodstock could afford
no slip ups and top goalscorer James Ellis was in no mood to
let the visitors get an early foothold. The striker who missed
a lot of last season was back to his best and he latched on to
a through ball for a trade mark finish within five minutes.
The students were back on level terms soon after though when
the home team made a series of errors followed by three good
opportunities to clear their lines with Ramsay Gashut cashing
in and scoring from close range. The home teams lead was
restored when Andy Faithful was brought down in the box for
Terry Smith to convert the penalty. Another trade mark Ellis
goal gave Woodstock a 3-1 advantage but again they shot
themselves in the foot when defender Peter Halls conceded a
penalty right on the stroke of half time, which Gashut scored
from for his second, to narrow the lead to 3-2.
Ellis's strike partner Aaron
Hayward was rewarded for his hard work early in the second
half when he charged down a clearance from the visiting keeper
to score. At 4-2 Woodstock should have been able to hold on
with ease but late on Ramsay Gashut completed his
hat-trick for the visitors to set up a nervy final few minutes
with Woodstock holding on for a win they just about deserved -
but only just! Woodstock visit unbeaten
Betteshanger Welfare next Saturday in the Kent Intermediate
Challenge Shield for which they will be without a few regulars
from what has been a very settled side this year.

British Energy Kent County
Football Association League Division One East
Woodstock Park 2 Kennington 2
Woodstock's visitors have not won
in the league this year but have only lost once and have drawn
all the rest of their games with mostly teams in and around
the top of the division. It was a disappointment then when
Woodstock decided to put in their worst performance of the
season so far against a team that were obviously not going to
give much away.
A classic counter attacking goal
opened the scoring when defending a corner the home side broke
and finished with a Rob Warburton pile driver from 30 yards.
Attacking has not been a problem for Woodstock since they
joined the league and they are the divisions leading scorers
at the moment. They are still weak in defending leads and yet
again they threw this one away with Steve Rice equalising for
the visitors. Warburton had to leave the field soon after with
a bad eye injury and with the visitors getting men behind the
ball the half ended 1-1.
A dull second half with only a
good save from each keeper to brighten it up was finally ended
when Woodstocks full back Sean Higginson smuggled the ball
into a crowded box for Richard King to score with a good shot
to the top right corner. Yet again Woodstock could not hold on
to the lead and with five minutes left sub Ian Ruck scored
from the edge of the box to give the visitors another draw
which they deserved fully.
The draw keeps Woodstock in second
place but they are kicking themselves over not taking the
chance to go top. Next week Woodstock visit Oakwood in the
league kick off 2.45pm @ Honey Lane, Otham

Woodcoombe 5 Old Oak 2
Having to make five changes from
the previous weeks winning team did not help Oak, losing two
players to injury early in the game brought the number to
seven. However there can be no excuse to just how bad Oak
played, by far their worst performance so far this year.
Woodcombe raced into a 3-0 half time lead and then scored
straight after the break for 4-0. In fact it was not until
they went 5-0 down did Oak show any signs of coming to life
with two late goals from James Ellis and Adam Overton. Oak
will be hoping to have some players back for next weeks home
game with Rainham Sports otherwise things will get a lot worse
for the Sittingbourne side.

After a 4-4 thriller at Bly a
couple of weeks ago things were all set up for another ding
dong in the replay. Oaks second string showed further signs of
getting back in the grove with another good soild all
round performance in their 3-0 replay win.
Jon Showler scored for Oak and
he has started to get back to last seasons form and last
years player of the year Martin Walker returned to grab the

Football Association League Division One East
Bliby 1 Woodstock Park 5
After last weeks first defeat of
the season Woodstock needed to bounce back and the team were
wondering what changes Manager Mick Rees was going to make. To
everyone's surprise Mick declared himself fit to play his
first game of the season and the veteran centre backs
inclusion had the desired effect. Young centre back partner
Peter Halls game always improves when the experienced player
manager is alongside him and on 10 minutes he headed home a
Terry Smith corner to give the visitors to Bliby in Ashford
the lead.
From the kick off Woodstock won
the ball, went straight up the other end, forced a corner,
which Smith delivered to the head of Halls again and the tall
centre back obliged with another header for his second goal
inside a minute. The rest of the half was quite even until on
40 minutes Woodstock were awarded a free kick on the edge of
the box and the player manager Rees duly banged it home for a
3-0 half time lead, all three goals coming from their centre
backs at dead ball situations!
The second half saw the
Sittingbourne side go further in front with their fourth goal
coming from a more usual source their main striker James
Ellis. At 4-0 Mick Rees had the opportunity to give all three
subs a run which he did causing a little unsettled period. The
home side were awarded a penalty during this time and
that brought the score back to 4-1.
One of the three subs brought on
was Kevin Dunk and his superb 35 yard lob over the keeper was
the goal of the game and a perfect end for Woodstock who moved
back up to second, a point behind the leaders. Next week
Woodstock are at home to Kennington in what looks like a close
game in the making.

Old Oak 4 Black Lion 2
With three of their normal back
four missing Oak drafted in two veteran centre backs Clifton
Phillips and Mick Rees for their first games of the season and
it looked like it was not going to work on 3 minutes as
Andy Poad pounced and scored for the visitors. All this did
though was wake Oak up and on 10 minutes James Ellis headed an
equaliser with Adam Overton and Chris Pearce adding two more
to give the home side a 3-1 half time lead and control of the
game.
James Ellis scored his second and
Oaks fourth in the second half and at 4-1 player manager Rees
gave all three subs a run. Oak missed several more chances
before John Coleman pulled one back for the visitors for a
final 4-2 score. Next week Oak visit local rivals Woodcoombe
and not as published the other local team Sittingbourne
Rangers.

Saturday 25.9.04: Woodstock
Park 0 Tyler Hill 2
The clash of the two old rivals
who joined the league at the same time saw the visitors record
their first win of the season knocking previously unbeaten top
side Woodstock off their perch.
Woodstock's form of the first
three weeks deserted them this week and although they
lost Wayne Cook in the 18th minute to an injury it was no
excuse as they were out run and out fought in the first half
and were in debt to keeper Mark Rees for going in only one
down at half time. The verteran made a number of saves with a
couple of them out of the top draw.
Further injuries to Russell Booth
and Andy Faithful who left the field early in the second half
disrupted further what has been a settled side over the
opening games. With the game at 0-1 for a long period though
Woodstock were always in with a chance of a come back and they
evenytually did reorganise. The usually reliable James Ellis
and partner Aaron Hayward both squandered a number of chances
in this half and it was just one of those days when the team
could not find the net and would not have done if the game had
been three hours long!
Eventually with ten minutes left
Tyler Hill sealed a deserved victory which was followed by
some frantic attacking form the homeside and a number more of
missed chances including one of astonishment to all when from
a yard out Hayward hit a firm shot against the keepers legs
and over the bar.
Woodstock will want to find their
shooting boots again and get back to winning ways when they
visit Bliby in Ashford next week.

Sunday 26th September: Old Oak
Reserves 1 Sporting Sittingbourne 0
With several more players now
available Oaks second string were back to full strength for
the first time this season and they did not need to use any
first team players who this week were without a game.
It was a battle of the two
division three teams that play at Woodstock Park and
throughout it was a very, very, even affair. Oak defended well
throughout and when the defence in which Ian Clay was
outstanding was ever breached Sporting found that keeper Andy
Hopkinson had returned to his form of last year.
Not that many chances at either
end then and it was no surprise when an own goal settled this
local derby in Oaks favour when a draw would have been a truer
reflection. Oak Reserves were not complaining though as it was
their first win of the season.

1
Having scored 14 goals in their first two games St Margaret's
were the
leaders of the division when they came to fourth placed
Woodstock Park on
Saturday but by the end of the match the teams had just about
swapped places
with Park going to the top of the division for the first time
ever.
The early stages were cagey until on ten minutes the home sides
leading
scorer of the last two seasons James Ellis broke the deadlock
with a trade
mark strikers finish. This lit the blue touch paper for a top
draw thirty
five minute spell which ended this match as a contest. On the
half hour the
ever improving Terry Smith danced round two defenders to crash
an
unstoppable shot in off the crossbar. Five minutes before the
half had
completed Aaron Hayward scored following an excellent passing
sequence to
make it 3-0.
A bitty stop start fifteen minute spell at the beginning of the
second half
was ended when Hayward popped up to grab his second. At 4-0 the
visitors got
a consolation from a corner with the home sides defence asleep
for the only
time in the game.
Long serving Rob Warburton hit one of his screamers form the
edge of the box
which the visiting keeper made a hash of to make it 5-1 but the
best of the
lot came when Smith got his second curling a free kick around
the wall from
the edge of the box for 6-1.
Next Saturday Woodstock will be looking to maintain top spot
when they meet
old rivals Tyler Hill at home with a 2.45pm kick off at the

Old Oak were well in control of this game taking an early 2-0
lead through
Scott Crammond and Adam Overton.
Two penalty decisions against them in a five minute spell
thereafter ended
this match as a contest. The first it seemed Oak had been
awarded a free
kick for an off the ball charge by the attacker only to see the
referee
point to the spot on the assistants advice. The second was for a
hand ball
when James Day put up his hands in front of his face to protect
himself from
a well struck shot. Not only was a penalty awarded but Day was
sent off
leaving Oak to play for an hour with just 10 men.
The match was poised at 2-2 for a long period but two late goals
from which
Oak could not recover ended their involvement in this years

After a hard fought 1-1 draw last week at home to New Romney in
their
opening match Woodstock Park found it a little easier this week
with their
first away match at Snowdown CW. It did not go their way for a
long period
however and they were possibly fortunate to go in 2-0 at the
break following
an even and hard fought first half.
Terry Smith who has been a revelation this season in a new
central midfield
role scored 2 goals which paved the way for a victory that was
comfortable
in the end at 6-0. The other 4 strikes coming from James Ellis,
Aaron
Hayward, Andy Faithful and substitute veteran striker Simon
Halls.
After two matches St Magarets are on top of the table following
two big wins

a good

An early strike by Scott Crammond seemed to be paving the way
for Senior

outfit Bounty.
The visitors however made it very difficult for the home side
and it was not
until late in the second half did two strikes from Andy Doerr
make the
passage into the next round safe. Sandwiched between the two
Doerr strikes
was a goal from the visitors Paul Thomas who never gave up the

Old Oak Reserves suffered their second defeat of the season in
succession
without again scoring a goal. The team at the moment is not
looking a patch
on last seasons promoted side but over the next few weeks
players should
return to get them back on track.
The prolific scorer Roy Sams will play his first game next week
as will a
few more returning regulars. Oak put up a good fight but were
short on
numbers when injuries prevailed. Lack of a cutting edge is the
main reason
they could not stay in this match with the home side eventually
running out
comfortable winners.
