Yes!! the boys are currently through to the Semi Final of the Manchester County Cup, were they will play Cadishead Sports Junior @ home on the 18.03.12

The lads are also in the quarter final of the U15s Tameside League Cup, where they will play Apollo @ home date to be confirmed.

Last but not least our League position is 3rd, or all it joint second with Moston Reds and 7 points off the leaders Avros with plenty game left to play, we are all optismistic that we can catch them for the title, however if not we are looking to maintain our form and finish as high as we can in our 1st season in this league.

So still on 3 different fronts there is lots to still be focused and play for.

The journey has been both challenging and rewarding to both players and manager. Decent start, however having slipped up twice in fixtures that we could and should of won with our levels of peformance. The boys realise that this is part of the process in learning, how well you/can you respond to defeats you don't normally experience. Our reactions have been many things, positive, humbling, hungry and desireable and commited. All these to recapture the levels of exceptional team and indivdual performances that made them one of the leader of the pack within their age group.

I share this with you, while we have under gone another transion as a squad this season with the successes of player that acheived 2 contracts with my support @ professional football clubs at the end of the U14s season. i continue to wish the the very best and every success at these levels and I am always their for them if needed. however I trust you will make the most and maximse these opportunities presented to them at this stage of their careers.

Tunde- ( Centre Forward) Bolton Wanders 2yr contract

Omar- (Central Defender) Bolton Wanders 2yr contract

Roger- (Goalkeeper) Rochdale 2yr contract

Milan- (Central Midfielder) Macceslfield 2yr contract

Joannis- (Full Back) Rochdale 2yr contract

Yet another transion for all the right reasons, productive and positive reasons again this season. To ensure this transion is smooth and collective we are working through all the elements, learning and togetherness that goes without saying. trying to do this without losing any of our competitive edge, will to progress, positive attitudes, my style of play and fun/love of the sport

Our last league fixture saw us beat Deans away 16-0. To offically comfirm a invincable, unbeatable, 100 percentage domestic league season. Well done boys proud of you and your acheivements.

Saturday morning 02.04.2011 the lads played an academy team from Rome.

ESSR Rome, the whole squad was use and it was a successful occasion. A good victory 6-0 and a satisfying performance...A link is now been establish long term between the two clubs.

Our lads play Wilmslow Albion @ home this weekend in the semi final of the league cup....all support welcome.

The lads recorded not only their highest win of the season, but also the highest by any side in this division this season. Also the highest I have ever seen whilst we have been in this league division. Beating Deans 18-1 was a extraordinary performance & phenomenal achievement....

Well done lads absolutely fantastic.....

Not sure if this game should of gone to penalty as we had larger share of possession and numerous more chances to kill the game. However you've still got to take your chance to have an opportunity of winning. Left it late and did just that in penalty shootout. Along with two excellent save from Roger 'superman' Degue.....SEMI FINAL HERE WE COME!!!!!!!

Well done today lads, all players and team could of easily drop their guards down given the oppositions current position and form. Not to be though. Lads maintained their 100% league record, recording double figures of wins for the season so far. Next week back to the cup and a match against domestic league rivals Barhill....

Last week the lad equaled their highest league win, by beating Broadheath 9-1, given the history and competitiveness between the 2 club, this was both a pleasing and satisfying victory. Well done lads, lets keep this up........

U14's bow out of county cup, but set new targets and challenges for rest of season.......

A big big well done to all the squad for their hard work, honesty, effort and commitment. my players left everything on the pitch. In what was a thrilling cup tie. You were truly unfortunate...heads up.

Boys beat Boothstown 3-0 away from home today to progress to the quarter final, where they will now play Moston Juniors away on 13.02.2011

Last weekend Sunday 12th December 2010, our fixture with Odswald Road was called off 1st thing in morning by myself, poor weather conditions on and off the field, raised major concerns to me for the players and parents health and safety.

We have been drawn out of the hat to play Boothstown away on the 6th Jan 2011.

Previous knowledge of this team is: We played them pre-season in a friendly at home. Won this game convincingly...

Now all that will count for nothing towards us and everything to them...

They will have something to prove, while we will have to guard against complacency and false assumptions..

New day, new game, only one winner one day, lets make sure we turn up with our best game.

Due to some severe weather conditions there has been no football matches for the pass 2 weeks. I hope this weekend the snow and frost will give the ground and pitch a reprieve.

The lads have a local derby and return fixture against Odswald Road this weekend. Weather permitting?

We trained last night and all the players are fit and in good spirit for the game.

Congratulations to Milan Thompson who has signed for Macclesfield Town, after impressing them during a trail period. Well Done Milan. Keep up the good work and good luck for the future from us all.

The lads progressed to the last 16 of the County Cup, through a convincing home victory against Staylbridge Celtic. Winning the game 5-2
