 WALSALL WOOD 0  SHIFNAL TOWN 0

Midland Football League, Premier Division

Saturday 6 November 2021

 

A truly dreadful game of football ended with the scoreline it deserved! Neither side had a shot on target during the whole game. The nearest to a goal in the first 45 minutes came after 28 minutes, when Rees Wedderburn’s corner was headed wide by Connor Hughes for the visitors.

 

4 minutes into the second half, home keeper Lloyd Ransome made the only save of the game, when a suicidal back-pass by Phil McKerdy almost caught him out. 4 minutes later in a rare moment of quality, Shifnal’s Jake Webb made ground on the right, but his low cross saw Wedderburn crash the ball against the upright. Kamol Campbell and Lewis Hayden both had long-range efforts for the hosts which were way too high. Most people in the ground breathed a sigh of relief when the referee blew the final whistle.

Match Report AFC WULFRUNIANS 2 SHIFNAL TOWN 0 Midland Football League, Premier Division Saturday 5TH February 2022

  AFC WULFRUNIANS 2  SHIFNAL TOWN 0  Midland Football League, Premier Division Saturday 5 TH February 2022   Shifnal are showing how much they are a team in transition with their recent form, a decent display being followed by a disappointing one. The majority of the first half was a drab affair punctuated by a few glaring misses by Shifnal in particular and a breakaway goal by AFC. The first effort on either goal came in the 15 th minute when George Scott in the Shifnal goal dived low to his right to keep out a shot from the edge of the box. On 22 mins Shifnals Brandon Tanomjit should have hit the target with a free header from 8 yards but put it wide. AFC took the lead slightly against the run of play on 29 mins when Ty Knight was left completely free and beat Scott with a fine shot from 18 yards. Shifnal had three good chances before half time but poor finishing led to them going in one down.    Shifnal again should have drawn level within 10 minutes ...

  BOLDMERE ST MICHAEL’S 2   SHIFNAL TOWN 0   Midland Football League, Premier Division Tuesday 29 March 2022   Against possibly the best side in the league, to lose by a penalty and an own goal was not a cause for great alarm in the Shifnal camp. Town almost took the lead after just 4 minutes, when Matthew Barnes-Homer pulled the ball back from the by-line for Jeremy Abbey, but he was unable to get a good contact with the ball, which passed inches wide of the far post. Mikes opened the scoring after 9 minutes, when ROB THOMPSON-BROWN was tripped in the penalty area, the same player sending Andy Wycherley the wrong way from the spot. The tricky Kyle Byrne made a chance for himself on 26 minutes, cutting in from the right, but his shot from the edge of the box was straight at Wycherley. The visitors were giving as much as they were getting, and in the 39 th minute, Liam Palmer’s cross from the right was headed narrowly wide by Dave Easthope. Wycherley did wel...

HIGHGATE UNITED 2 SHIFNAL TOWN 1 Midland Football League, Premier Division Saturday 16 April 2022

HIGHGATE UNITED 2  SHIFNAL TOWN 1  Midland Football League, Premier Division Saturday 16 April 2022   After a good first half performance, Shifnal fell away after the break and ultimately got what they deserved from the game – nothing. The home side were looking for a result to ensure that they kept distance between themselves and the relegation places, and they had the majority of the possession in the first half without ever looking to trouble the Shifnal keeper Sheridan Martinez. After a period of Highgate pressure, Town came close to opening the scoring after 14 minutes. Andre Brown had a shot from 15 yards blocked by a defender, the ball falling to Ashley Brown whose shot was cleared off the line. They did score in the 35 th minute, when Tom Hill picked the pocket of a defender before crossing from the left. Reece Taylor latched on to the ball and crossed back into the middle for HILL to head past Ben Maxwell, the referee’s assistant confirming that the ball had cr...
