Hello friends, this is the last post of the 2010/11 season for my Thurrock team. Seven games left to play and we are surely looking good for the promotion as you know from my previous post, we are eighteen points clear of 2nd place Chelmsford. I will not go into detail for all the games play as it will be an extremely long post. Here is the results in April..

There you go, my team ends the season with 3 wins, 1 draw and 3 loss. The draw against Bishop Stortford and the win against Tonbridge was enough for my Thurrock team to wrap up the Blue Square South title. My team now has 85 points and Chelmsford has 69 points, they are sixteen points behind us and with five games left, it was impossible for them to catch us and THURROCK HAD WON PROMOTION TO THE BLUE SQUARE PREMIER. WE DID IT.

After the title has been won, i think my team is already starting to celebrate and that is why we just won two out of [...]Read More

With us leading in Blue Square South, things are looking very good at the moment, the road to promotion is definitely depends on us. We need to ensure that there is no slip-up for the coming games. Due the Gloucester match cancelled and will be play in February, we will be playing five games for this month. Here is the results that you have been waiting..

vs Bath 2-0
First game of the month was against this mid-table team, we actually don’t have much creativity in this match but we were very clinical in front of goal. Right midfielder Wayne Graves gave us the lead after a perfect through ball by Paul Hakim. David King doubled our lead in the 38 minutes with a close range goal. They tried to come back into the game but our defence hold them well.

vs Gloucester 2-1
They are currently fighting against relegation but they certainly show a lot [...]Read More

Dear friends, half a season gone and we are the leaders of Blue Square South, five points clear of second place Chelmsford. I need my players to be at their best for the remaining games in the next few months, any slip-up will allow Chelmsford to overtake us for the top spot and all our efforts before will be in a waste. It will be a busy schedule in January as we need to play seven games, the most important game will be away to our closest rival Chelmsford. If we can win this game, it will be very difficult for them to catch us as the rest of the opposition we faced is not very strong. Here is the results.

vs Welling 3-0
It was a fairly easy game for us, we dominate the game and doesn’t allow them to create much chances. Jack Jeffrey opened the scoring in the first half to give us a lead. Then David  King head in from a corner and Matt Paine scored in [...]Read More

Hello my friends, in this post i am going to bring you the games result played in October to December. After going unbeaten in the Blue Square South for two months, i know that a defeat will come sooner or later. But never did i expect my Thurrock team to suffer two defeats in October and one defeat in November. My players could not carry the good form over and due to some injuries we have a dip in form and we did not play too well in these few months. Probably we played too many games due to progress of the FA cup and FA trophy cup that’s why my players are showing some fatigue. Here is the results.

October

vs Newport Co 3-4
This is a match which two in-form teams went head to head with each other. They are also having a good run at the moment, eight games unbeaten before facing us while we won seven games in a row. We took the lead by a own goal from one of their players early in [...]Read More

After a great start in August, my players are going to approach upcoming games with confidence sky high in September. There are four matches to be play in September. Three league matches and one FA cup qualifying round. Here is the fixtures and results..

My players performed extremely well in these games, we are potent and efficient in attack and our defence is organised and very tight, eleven goals were scored and only one conceded.

vs Basingstoke 3-1
We are slightly favorites for this match, i take a look on their players and decided to go for a standard strategy. From the start, both teams are trying to gain possession and the midfield area saw a lot of the ball. Few chances and shots were created. Chris Black is not playing well, i made a substitute with Loui Fazakerley in half time.Things doesn’t change better in the second half and i made my last two substitutions in  the 73rd minute replacing Simon Heslop (carrying a minor knock) and Jack Jeffrey with Matt Paine and [...]Read More
