Hard Tasks For Amateur's - 26th August
With wins in their opening two matches, Amateurs will look forward to a challenging bank holiday weekend. On Saturday they host Cricklade Town and on Monday make the short trip to Letcombe. Cricklade have taken a win and a draw from their opening fixtures, Letcombe have won both whilst honours were shared last season, home advantage prevailing.
Klaus Buckle will miss both games, but Liam Morbey should be back from holiday for the Monday game. Adam Simmonds will also miss out on Monday as he starts a one week suspension carried over from last seasons Sunday football.
Steve Skyrme, who had a previously successful spell with the club, has re-signed to give Headington goalkeeping cover after Ramos Pereira joined Didcot at the start of the season.
Squad for both games: Jenkins, Brown, B.Cuff, Muze, Buckle, Zaja, Simmonds, Williams, Hafiz, Hill, Jacob, Lockhart, L.Cuff, Cirilo, DeGarces, Smith, Johnson, Morbey.

Bourne Visit A's - 18th August
After their very solid opening day win at Trowbridge the Amateurs host Winterbourne United this Saturday.
Winterbourne secured an excellent point away to Easington in their first game will provide a good test of Amateur's. Liam Morbey is unavailable but Ollie Zaja returns. Jay Hill, who missed most of pre-season with a persistent injury, proved his fitness last week with twenty five minutes from the bench.
From: Jenkins, Brown, B.Cuff, Muze, Buckle, Zaja, Simmonds, Williams, Hafiz, Hill, Jacob, Lockhart, L.Cuff, Cirilo, DeGarce

Amateur's Raring To Start - 13th August
Headington kick off their 2010 programme with a visit to Trowbridge Town tomorrow, a venue that is now their longest trip but where they recorded a fine 0-2 win last term.
With almost all of last years squad re-signed, 29 year old Justice Muze is the one notable new face having been with Dorchester last season. With manager Shaun Pearce serving a carried over suspension, Justice will be a welcome addition. Jay Hill (knee) misses out with injury & Ollie Zaja is unavailable, but Pearce is confident that he has the quality to repeat last years successful campaign that saw a third place finish attained. Headington’s preparations were somewhat scuppered when last Saturdays friendly with neighbours Quarry 08 was called off late on Friday night but the team will travel with confidence whilst according their opponents every respect, Trowbridge is always a tough place to go.
Earlier in the summer the club suffered the disappointment of having their new clubhouse & changing rooms project postponed. Chairman Don Light & Steve Giles felt they had no choice but to agree to defer until the end of the 2010-11 season without a firm schedule that could be put with confidence to the League. Necessary maintenance & repair work has now been carried out by landlords Oxford City Council to the existing building. |
