President's Patter for Saturday 10th October 2015

A mixed week, the 1st XI team made the long journey to Surrey to take on Old Westminster Citizens, we seem to have settled into a good run of form and won the match 3-1.
10 points out of 12 is a good start but there are two other teams with similar records so we cannot afford any slip ups.
Good to see our new young first team reviving the tradition of returning to the club after away games.
The Res XI had a tough game against NUFC Oilers who we had two titanic battles with last season, they had the same team as last year, yet ours much changed due to players going up to the first team we were defeated 6-1. It will be a major job to keep them in this very strong division.
At the club we were joined briefly by another member of our Championship winning side David Muir.
The 4th XI were the highest home side, so played on a good looking 1st team pitch, they are a very strong side and beat Old Wokingians in the AFA Cup 7-1. There are players in that side that could play higher but in the modern way don't want to go up.
The internal SAL league game between the 5's and 6's finished in a 3-3 draw.
The 7's lost 3-2 to Old Lyonians 5th XI.
​Lets hope for a good week to come COYN
