Green Heath Rangers

Match Result
Green Heath Rangers 5-0 Collier Arms FC

After last week’s defeat, we knew exactly what worked for us and what didn’t, and the lads responded brilliantly today.

From the first whistle, the pressure was unreal. Ty put in a great cross and Ellis was there to mop it up with a tap-in to make it 1-0 within the opening few minutes.

Straight from the restart, the pressure was back on again. The lads stuck to the same playbook, got it out to Ty, and he delivered another great ball into the mixer for Ellis to grab his second goal in just 10 minutes.

The football from the lads was fantastic all game. They didn’t give the opposition any time to think, and shortly after, Lewis played a great pass through for Ellis to complete his hat-trick.

Collier Arms did try to get themselves back into the game, but our press kept them on the back foot throughout. Dennis then played a lovely ball over the top from centre-back and Ellis finished again to make it 4-0.

The second half carried on much the same, with the lads playing some beautiful one-twos around the back line, which resulted in Lewis setting Wilko up to make it 5-0.

In the final 5 minutes, Dennis started celebrating early with his hands in the air for his birthday and ended up giving away a penalty, but Ash was on top form and made a great save low down in the corner.

A brilliant performance from all the lads today.

Man of the Match was a tough one, so we had 3:
GK - Ash Lowndes
CB - Reece Marsh
ST - Lewis Keeling

Goals / Assists:
⚽ Ellis x4
⚽ Wilko x1

🅰️ Ty x2

Match Result
Green Heath Rangers 2-5 Penkridge FC B Team (Penkridge Football Club)

Not the result we wanted today, and definitely one of those games where the scoreline doesn’t reflect the game itself.

We came out of the gates well and put the pressure on Penkridge early. They managed to play one ball in behind and took their chance to go 1-0 up. After that, Penkridge didn’t get much of a sniff in the first half as we kept the pressure on.

Kyle delivered a beautiful free-kick into the box, Mason got a little touch on it, and the man himself George Dennis slotted it into the net to make it 1-1. Their keeper made some fantastic saves in the first half and kept them in the game.

After the break, I changed things around with the formation and I’ll take full responsibility for what happened in the second half. The shape just didn’t sit right with us, and Penkridge exploited that and punished us. I’ll take it as a learning curve and we move forward through pre-season.

In the second half, Webby put in a great ball and Lewis finished it off well.

Although the result doesn’t reflect the game, there are still a lot of positives to take away. Next game, we go again, fix the mistakes and focus on the season ahead.

Match Result

Green Heath Rangers 1-3 Burntwood Lions

Not the result we wanted today. Burntwood Lions came out of the blocks stronger, while we started slowly and found ourselves 2-0 down at half-time.

After a few changes at the break, the lads came out as the better side. Spuda pulled one back with a beautiful strike that hit the post before finding the back of the net.

The game finished 3-1, but there were plenty of positives to take away, as well as a few areas we know we need to work on going forward.

Thank you to Burntwood Lions for the friendly and all the best for the season ahead.

Match day result

Green Heath Rangers 3-3 Horns Inn FC

The lads came out of the blocks a little slower than intended and found themselves 2-0 down after 15 minutes, with Horns taking full advantage of two fantastic balls over the top.

To the lads credit, they didn’t let that demoralise them. They dusted themselves off and got back into it with a beautiful assist from Kyle finding Mason to make it 2-1. Shortly after, Mason made a fantastic run, beating the back line and bringing it back to 2-2 going into half-time.

The second half started with us coming out fast paced and playing some great football. A little bit of sloppy defending led to a penalty, which put Horns back in front at 3-2. Once again though, the lads never gave up. A beautiful ball in from Ellis found Mason, who fired home an unstoppable volley to make it 3-3.

Overall, it was a great game from both sides and there are a lot of positives to take into pre-season.
