Town Vets are back to league action on Thursday 15th February 2018, when they travel to Milton Utd to face Goring Utd in Hellenic Veterans Division One. Kick off at Potash Lane (Map: https://goo.gl/maps/5Y7W1FyQ7KR2) is 7.45pm.
Town currently sit top of the table and the squad are in high spirits after last week’s cup quarter-final victory over Premier League side, Thame Utd on penalties and Saturday’s team building drinking and horse racing session at the clubhouse. Town have an impressive record in the league with 8 victories, 1 draw and 1 defeat on the opening day of the season. Town have scored 26 and conceded only 10 league goals. The home side currently sit in 7th position, with 8 points from their 11 league fixtures with two wins, 2 draws and 7 defeats so far scoring 12 goals and conceding 24. Top scorer for United is Ian McBean who has scored 7 goals in 14 league and cup ties.
The two sides met at Radcot Road in September with Town taking an early two-goal lead, before conceding a penalty on the stroke of half-time, which United duly converted. The second period was very tight, but Town held onto the three points, with Colin Yates and Gary Sutton notching the goals. Currently on an unbeaten run of 13 league and cup games unbeaten, we know we have to be at our best to keep the run going and put pressure on the chasing teams if we wish to pick up the league championship trophy with the home side looking to cause an upset, which they have down already this season by taking points off of Town title contenders Witney Royals.
