PURTON F C NEWS

Not As Bad As First Feared - 9th March


Without a league game last week-end the Purton feared the worst as all the other title chasing clubs were in league action. But things turned out better than expected as only Cheltenham Saracens who have now played three games more than Purton, and Headington Amateurs, narrowly won their games. Whilst Wootton Bassett Town and Slimbridge both dropped points in drawn matches.

Purton visit North Leigh Reserves this coming week, following that with two home local derbies against Cricklade Town and Wootton Bassett Town, then a mid-week trip to Lydney Town at the end of the month.

At North Leigh the club will be hoping to get back to winning ways after two losses against Chelteham Saracens and Easington Sports to keep them in contention in what is proving to be keenly contested chase for the Division 1 West title.


Blank Red House Saturday - 5th March

With no fixture tommorrow Purton will probably have some catching up to do when they are away at North Leigh Reserves next week as all the other promotion challenging teams are all in action and all look likely to pick up maximum points in their games this Saturday.


With nine games still left to play, the club has only three away and six at the Red House in their run in, but its wide open at the moment and all those in contention at present are in with a shout.


Sales for the club have been generated after publishing on the Hellenic website that the club had a further batch of club badges, no less that 8 application have been received in the past week, with badges despatched to two collecters in Spain, one in Germany and five UK orders from Grimsby, Hull, Wisbech, Truro and Mansfield. Obviously its good to see that the Hellenic website is widely browsed.

 

National Football Magazine Coverage - 3rd March


Purton has been honoured by two national football magazines by including the club in a already published an up an coming publication of their magazines.

hellenic league chris pethickManager Chris Pethick, his assistant Sean Clark, will be hoping the team put the disappointment of last weeks 2-0 defeat at Cheltenham Saracens that cost them their 17 match unbeaten league sequence. Which also saw Saracens takeover the Division One West leadership.

Purton will be looking to get back on track when they hosts to Easington Sports at the Red House on Saturday. Earlier in the season a solitary goal by Paul Blagden earned Purton the points in a 1-0 win but are expecting a tough game against a side who on their day are a match for anyone in the league.

Purton Departures - 23rd February


hellenic league paul blagden purton fcPaul Blagden a regular member of Purton's Hellenic League side for the last several seasons has moved to Kent and into a new job. Paul was an excellent team player and valuable member of the squad. A hardworking midfield player he had a great engine and always gave his team 100% in every game he played. We wish him and his family all the best in their new location.


hellenic league russell fuller purton fcRussell Fuller (right) older brother of Warren at the club who played early on in the season and scored probably one of the best Purton's goals this season in their first game of the season a 3-2 win at Trowbridge Town has because of injury problems in the foot and ankle areas been advised not to play by the medical services. Whether this is permanent is unsure but certainly Russell will not be donning the "red" again this season.


More positve player news for Purton. Justin Miller is up and about and looking a lot better after his bout of pneumonia and is hopeful of spectating at the club's home match this Saturday when Purton host Easington Sports at the Red House.

Purton Still Rolling - 19th February


Without a league defeat since their 2nd match of the season back in August, Purton will extend their unbeaten league record to 18 matches if they can avoid defeat away against Cheltenham Saracens this Saturday.

Earlier in the season at the Red House Purton ran out 5-1 winners thanks to a hat-trick by Johnny Coole, and other goals by Tom Cadden and Ashley Gooch but the Saracens have have improved a lot since that defeat and are a well organised side with a potent strike force. Purton have won the last three league encounters and overall have met the Saracens 35 times in league matches in the Hellenic winning 17 drawing 8 and losing 10. Purton's management team and the players know this will be a difficult match and an important one for both sides as both are in the hunt for the championship along with Slimbridge, and Wootton Bassett Town.

Justin Miller is still out recovering from pneumonia so Manager Chis Pethick will select his team from: Farrell, Temple, Lees, Townsend, Roper, Richards, Coole, Hall, Gooch,Avenall, Day, Fuller, May, Bowen, Campbell, Cadden.

 

Back To Winning Ways ? - 13th February


After two league draws against Tytherington Rocks and Headington Amateurs, Purton will be hoping to get back to winning ways when they visit Cirencester United today. Losing the leadership of One West to Slimbridge last week as they played and won whilst Purton were without a game, Slimbridge took over on goal difference but Purton do have a game in hand. A win or a draw in tomorrow's game will see Purton extend their unbeaten league run to 17 games.


Purton will select from: Farrell, Lees, Richards, Roper, Temple, Bowen, Townsend, Coole, Webb, M.Hall,W.Fuller, Cadden, Avenall, Day, Gooch, Campbell.

Justin Miller is currently still off work after suffering pneumonia and is making steady progress from his illness. All at Purton would like to thank those Club Secretaries who have emailed the club asking for an update on Justin's progress.

 

Return Of The Webb - 3rd February


Last Saturday against Headington Amateurs Purton welcomed back one of their former players Allan Webb who rejoined the club on Friday after playing for the past few seasons with Malmesbury Victoria.


Allan was a member of Purtons 2003/4 championship winning side and since playing at Malmesbury has been their club captain and an important part of their side playing in midfield or up front and scoring quite a few goals in his time with them. Still only 28 years of age Allan is a great addition to the squad and when he settles in again after a few games will prove to be a great signing by the club.

 

First Home Game In 7 Weeks? - 29th January

Purton play hosts to Headington Amateurs this coming Saturday, weather permitting with Purton in top slot and their visitors lying in 4th place. Without a game at the Red House since the 12th of December the Purton locals will be hoping more bad weather does not lead to another cancellation.

Earlier in the season the sides shared the points in a 2-2 draw and both sides go into Saturday's game on the back of excellent league results. Purton unbeaten in their last 15 games, winning 11 and drawing the other 4 while Headington can boast 10 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses in their last 15 league games.

Purton will still be without Avenalll (holiday), Townsend and Cowley (injured) and Miller (recovering from illness).

Purton President and Club Chairman Alan Eastwood is pleased to report that Justin Miller who was admitted to hospital over Christmas has now been released after suffering pneumonia and RSV.

Now at home Justin, who has lost considerable weight, after his ordeal with his illness will probably have to take things easy and likely to remain off work for 4-6 weeks as he needs to rest and continue on prescribed mediication. Living just a stones-throw away from his President/Chairman Alan states, 'I popped in to see Justin on Saturday lunch-time and gave Justin and his wife assurance that I was on hand to give them any assistance they might need as he re-cooperates from his illness'

The whole of Purton FC and those in the Hellenic family wish Justin a speedy and complete recovery.

 

Update On Justin Miller - 11th January

His wife and child that were also admitted at the time have since been released from hospital. Further updates will be notified as and when known and everyone at the club is hoping Justin will overcome his illness soon.

On the football side Purton players have tried to get some training periods in during the current bad spate of weather but facilities are hard to come by as many of the local training centres have been closed. Whether the club will get to play away at Lydney Town this coming Saturday will again be in doubt but are hoping, as all other Hellenic clubs are, that their sides will get back into action at the weekend.

 

Loss Of A Legend - 7th January


The start of 2010 has seen Purton FC lose Harry Bunce, probably the best ever player to represent the club, who sadly passed away on the 2nd of January

Harry was a regular member of Purton side's in the 40s to the 60s and won many honours with the club including three Wiltshire league titles and three Wiltshire Senior Cups plus many other local cups run by Malmesbury, Cirencester and Hospital cup trophies and gained Wiltshire County honours in his long and brillant career in what were brillant Purton sides"

Club President and Chairman Alan Eastwood states "I joined the club in 1972 and although I did not see him play locals tell me and that has been confirmed by all the newspaper reports and club records I have at hand that Harry was a legend at Purton Football Club. He was a 100 per cent player on the field who, whatever the weather conditions, never got his shorts dirty and was a real gentlemen off the pitch to boot." Purton Football Club offer his wife Edna and all his family and relations their deepest sympathy on the loss of Harry who wont be forgotten. The funeral will take place at St Mary's Church, Purton on Monday the 18th January 2010 at 11am followed by cremation at Kingsdown. Family flowers only.


Bad News for Purton - 30th December


hellenic league justin millerSad news over Christmas for the club when Justin Miller was admitted to hospital on Boxing day with his wife and one of his children with swine flu. Since then Justin has been diagonised with bacterial and viral pneumonia. The Club wish them all a complete recovery from these illness's.

Although limited due to other committments in the games he has played Justin (pictured) has been a key member of the squad and his vast experience at higher levels has helped Purton to be where they are currently at the top end of their league. Saturday they play hosts to near neighbours Wootton Bassett Town. Both sides are currently on long unbeaten league runs and earlier in the season the points were shared at Bassett 2-2, Warren Fuller netting a brace that day.

The weather will again have a big say as to whether the game will be played. Both sides will be hoping to get some football played as both have had long lay-offs due to the recent awful weather conditions. Stephen Avenall (holiday) and of course Justin Miller will be missing but Manager Pethick still has a 16 man squad to pick from in what should be the game of the day if the weather allows the fixture to go ahead.

Boxing Day Jeopardy - 24th December


Purton's local derby Boxing day game at the Red House against Cricklade Town is still in jeopardy due to the heavy frosts and snow but the Club will be giving it every chance to get the game played.

Chairman Alan Eastwood will be contacting the match officials later on Thursday evening to ascertain the latest information and to find out their latest travelling times for the Boxing Day 12 noon kick off. Neighbours Cricklade due to the short distance they have to travel should not be a problem so a final decision can be made early on Boxing day morning.

Paul Day returns to the squad but Stephen Aveneall will not be available to play against one of his former club's as he will be in Australia and New Zealand for 5 weeks or so on a pre-planned holiday he had arranged while playing with Malmesbury Vics. Stephen is very disappointed to miss the game, luckily fot Purton other strikers are available to Manager
Chris Pethick who if the game goes ahead and they win will extend his sides unbeaten league run to 15 games.

Visitors Crickalde Town have had the better of league meetings since they joined the Hellenic league winning 5 drawing 1 and losing just 2, both tose defeats being Purtons 3-1and 2-1 victory's.

Top Of The Table Clash - 4th December

Division One West second placed Purton travel to 'Top Dogs' Slimbridge this Saturday in a league encounter weather permitting. Visitor's Purton and go into the game on the back of a 12 match unbeaten league run. That twelve match run sees Purton just a point behind their opponents but with two games in hand.

In the second match of the season on 15th August leaders Slimbridge won 4-0 at the Red House. Purton were well beaten that day but since then their team has been strengthened and with only one game played in last three weeks due to the awful weather conditions are itching to get back into things. Keeper Johnny Cowley has still not recovered from injury so Sean Farrell will again deputise and Justin Miller is unavailable for this important game. Apart from these two players Manager Chris Pethick has a large squad to pick from including the recent re-signiing of Marcus Hall from Wootton Bassett who played in he Wilts League Premier clash last week at Marlborough Town scoring in their 2-1 victory .


This is an important game for both sides and hopefully it will provide some good football from both sides on the day.



Hot Shot Avenall Hunting More - 26th November

hellenic league steve avenallWeather permitting, Purton travel to meet local rivals Cricklade Town this Saturday the first of two games in the next few weeks, the return game at the Red House on Boxing Day with a 12 noon kick off time.

The Cricklade Town pitch does not hold up well to the wet weather but both sides will be hoping to get the game played but once again the game will be in "the lap of the gods".


Purton have Paul Day available after suspension but still have injury doubts over Mike Lees and Johnny Cowley. Stephen Avenall (pictured) a Cricklade lad who has been a prolific scorer so far for Purton netting 11 goals in 3 matches will be hoping to continue his fine scoring habit against the club he first started playing for before going on to have spells with Purton previously, Shrivenham and Carterton.

 

If Tomorrow Was Today - 20th November

It's a pity that Purton's Wilts Senior Cup tie this Saturday could not take place today (Friday) as despite the wet weather yesterday the Red House Pitch is in fine fettle for the re-arranged game tomorrow (1.45pm) but the weather forecasted, yet again might prove to be the winner.


Purton will carry out a pitch inspection at 10.30 on Saturday morning if rain falls overnight but are hoping to ge the match played to prevent falling behind on their league programme.

Latest team news is that keeper Johnny Cowley wont be fit so Sean Farrell will deputise. As mentioned in previous news Paul Day is suspended and Lee Bowen cup-tied but Justin Miller has recovered from an injury that has kept him ut a few weeks and Marcus Hall who has arrived back from Wootton Bassett will also be in the squad.


Disappointed Purton - 16th November

Purton were disappointed that last Saturdays Wiltshire Senior Cup tie had to be called off at 11 am on the morning of the match against Laverstock and Ford from the Wessex League because of the heavy and persistent rain that had waterlogged both goal areas, writes Alan Eastwood.


The game will take place at the Red House this Saturday (1.45pm) kick off and so the planned Division One West league game due to be played at home against Lydney Town will be re-scheduled by the league. Manager Pethick will have a full squad to pick from with the exceptions of Paul Day (suspended), Lee Bowen (cup-tied) while regular keeper Johnny Cowley who is carrying an injury could be replaced by Sean Farrell.

After the weekend results in the Hellenic Division One West, Purton still hold onto top slot by two points with a game in hand from Slimbridge. But the "A"s from Headington have closed the gap and are six points behind in third place.


First Time In Six Years -12th November

Following their league win over Winterbourne United last week and previous league leaders Slimbridge losing at Headington and also losing points along with other high riding teams due to the withdrawal from the League of Harrow Hill it now means that Chris Pethick and his team find themselves "top of the shop" in Hellenic League Divison One West. For the first time since the 2003/4 season when they won the One West under Alan Clark, undefeated all season.

hellenic league marcus hall purtonThis Saturday Purton miss out on league action as they play hosts to Laverstock & Ford from the Wessex League in the 2nd Round of the Wiltshire Senior Cup Competition.


Justin Miller is unavailable while Paul Day is suspended but Warren Fuller returns after injury and Manager Pethick will choose between Johnny Cowley and Sean Farrell for the goal-keeping slot.

After joining Wootton Bassett Town at the start of this season Marcus Hall (pictured) has re-signed for the club having made only 5 appearances in Bassett's First and Reserve teams. A skillful midfielder he will be vying for a place where Purton already have other good mid-fielders in Johnny Coole, Steven May, Paul Blagden,Ashley Gooch, Scott Campbell and Ryan Child.

 

Third Meet This Season - 6th November

Tomorrow Purton entertain Winterbourne United in a league game. This will be the 3rd meeting this season with Purton having won 5-0 on their patch in the league and beating them in a penalty shoot out at the Red House 4-3 in the Bluefin Challenge Cup, but failed to progress last week going out 2-0 to Premier league side Fairford Town.


hellenic league lee bpwen purtonGames with Winterbourne are always well contested and another of these is expected tomorrow at the Red House. Purton are hopeful that Steve Avenell and Steven May, Justin Miller and Johnny Cowley will be fit to play but Paul Blagden and Ashley Gooch will both miss Saturdays game.

Manager Chris Pethick has dipped into the transfer market and has snapped up Lee Bowen (pictured) from Cricklade Town and Steven Keir from Swindon Supermarine to add to already impressive squad of players and is hopeful his side can continue their good league form and maintain their high league placing.

Former player Marcus Hall is also considering a move back from Wootton Bassett Town which will make team selections even more difficult for Manager Pethick.

 

Gunning For Win - 30th October

Purton manager Chris Pethick admitted that whilst the Bluefin Insurance Challenge Cup was not a major priority, his team would very much be gunning for the win.


“From our point of view the league is our top priority, but it’s nice to have a bit of a cup run,” he said. “We’ve got quite a big squad this year so we are using the cup run to get people games. Fairford is a big game and it’s always nice to beat a team in a higher league. To win it will be a bonus but if we lose it will not be too soul-destroying.”

Pethick also revealed he had a seven day approach in for an unnamed midfielder, while he was last night considering putting another in for a defender. The Purton chief was in the dark over his absences this weekend but opposite number Paget revealed he is waiting on the fitness of Martin Stratford (ankle).

 

hellenic league chris pethickPurton Progress - 23rd October

Manager Chris Pethick after a two week break in Mexico was delighted on is return to find that his assistant Sean Clark and his players had progressed in the Wilts Senior Cup with a 3-0 win over New College, Swindon and and won last weeks Hellenic League match 9-0 away at Launton Sports.

This Saturday in what would appear to be the match of the day Purton travel to Addison Road to meet Easington Sports who like Purton are in a good run of form. On the twenty league visits Purton have made to Addison Road they have won 9 drawn 5 and lost 6. Returning to the squad this week after missing last weeks game are Steve May and Justin Miller. Only the two Fuller brothers Warren and Russell are not available due to injuries so Manager Pethick will have almost a full squad to pick from, a nice position to be in but will provide him with some tough decisions to make on his final 16 team selection. One player who will surely figure in the starting line up is Steve Avenell who notched "six" of his sides nine goals last week-end, a Purton record for a player making his debut for the club


hellenic league steve avenallAvenell Re-Signs For Purton - 16th October

After several seasons away, playing at Shrivenham and Malmesbury Vics', Steve Avenell has re-signed for the club. Avenall was part of a mass exodus of players who left the club at the end of the 2003/4 season, after winning the Division One West title without losing all season, in which Steve played a big part by scoring regularly. Steve was also a member of then manager Alan Clark's side that won the Supplementary Cup in 2001/2.

President and Chairman Alan Eastwood is delighted by the signing saying "Steve was a first class player for us and was well liked by the Purton supporters for always giving 100 per cent. A Cricklade lad, Steve could well have returned to his grass roots side, but elected to join us. He will add further experience to the side that also has Justin Miller and Paul Day in the ranks, both of whom have been there and done it"

Purton travel to lowly Launton tomorrow and Avenell has been added to the squad, though Warren and Russell Fuller are still out injured. With a positive run of 11 league and cup games behind them, and despite the home sides l owly placing, Purton will not be the taking game for granted.

 

Committed Encounter Expected - 3rd October

After cup success last weekend in a penalty shoot-out against Winterbourne United both teams meet again today in a Division One West encounter at The Red House Ground.

Following the very competitive match last weekend the game today will just as committed by both outfits. Purton will be without Warren Fuller who will be out of action for a few months following his knee ligament damage a couple of weeks ago and Justin Miller who went off last week with a hamstring injury. Steven May will also be absent due to work committments but Tom Cadden, Ryan Childs and Scott Campbell all return after holidays.

Goal Getter Injured - 25th September

hellenic league warren fuller ourtonThe weekend's Bluefin Insurance Challenge cup tie at the Red House between Purton and Winterbourne United should have seen two of the leagues leading goal-getters up against other, Purton's Warren Fuller and Winterbourne United's Jimmy Potts with ten goals already apeice this season.

Sadly for Purton, Warren Fuller (left) was injured after 40 minutes at Clanfield last Saturday after a collision with the home keeper and will be out of action for some-time after it was confirmed he has sustained knee ligament damage. This is a sad blow to Purton as Warren's goals have been vital the past three seasons.

Purton do have a replacement however as making his debut last week was ex Highworth Town and Wantage Town striker Paul Day who netted in that match. Although not match fit after a long lay off in the long term he could prove to be a shrewd signing by Manager Chris Pethick.

Purton are already a striker short as Russell Fuller, Warren's brother has not played for several weeks and his future due to his injuries are a worry as well. Former striker James Richards has signed on and he like Day when fit could well give Manager Pethick options later in the season. For tomorrow's match Purton welcome back Paul Blagden and Ashley Gooch
Tom Cadden and Steve Hall who all took knocks last week are hopeful they will have recovered to be included in selection.

 

hellenic league chris pethickMake It A Long Summer -18th September

Purton's summer success looks set to extend in to autumn - and long may it continue in the eyes of boss Chris Pethick.
The Red House outfit currently sit second in the Hellenic League Division One West with just one league defeat to their name all season, and travel to Clanfield tomorrow hoping for another three points.


Pethick revealed he demanded an impressive first couple of weeks from his players before the start of the campaign, and has been delighted with their lengthy response. “I asked them for a good August and it’s continued into September,” admitted the manager. “I’m not going to complain at that. The lads have put in a great effort and you can’t expect any more from them. It’s been a pretty good start and to only have been beaten once, I’d settle for that at this moment. We’ve become a bit tighter than we were last season, but we’re still scoring quite a few goals. It’s looking good.”


Justin Miller is a doubt for Purton this weekend, but they will definitely be without midfielder Paul Blagden.

 

Free Scoring - 10th September

Purton meet Headington Amateurs away this Saturday in a game if recent form is anything to go by will see both sides able to score freely whilst both defences will be hoping to prevent the ball going into their net, Purton having conceeded 16 times so far and Headington one behind on 15.

Purton will still be without striker Russell Fuller but his brother Warren will be hoping to add to the nine goals he has netted already this season. Cuff will no doubt be looking to increase Amateurs goals scored tally and will be in the same frame of mind. Purton, apart from Russel Fuller, hope to have a full squad to pick from. The teams have met 34 times in Hellenic league encounters with Purton winning 14 with 10 draws whilst Headington have won 10 times.

Sad news for the Club is that a former player Martin 'Bunny' Bunce aged 55 passed away on September the 6th. 'Bunny' never played in the Hellenic but back in 70's and 80's was a regular Purton player in the Wilts and County leagues at both First and Reseve team levels. His funeral is at Purton's St Mary's Church at 2.30pm on Friday the 18th of September where Purton FC Management and former and current players and friends will attend. The club extends their sympathy to all his family on their sad loss.

 

Purton Ready To Go - 10th August


With pre-season friendly matches completed Purton start their programme with an away trip to Towbridge Town on Tuesday the 11th of Aug and a home fixture with FTL Futbol Hellenic One West newcomers Slimbridge on Saturday the 15th of Aug, somewhat of a difficult start.

Purton go into the season with Club President/Press/Programme & Hellenic Match Sec Alan Eastwood holding down the Chairmans post after Gerry Phillips re-signed in late April. After a 6th place finish last season, Purton are hoping to improve on that but know its going to be a difficult task with the league looking that much stronger this forthcoming campaign. The club have lost Adrian Roper to Malmesbury Vics, Blaine Fitzgerald to Shrivenham and Marcus Hall to local rivals Wootton Bassett Town.

New players in include Mark Brereton, Chris Rivers, Scott Campbell and Steven May. Russell Fuller who joined last season and games were restricted should be available much more often this season as he teams up with older brother Warren and with Tom Cadden. With Justin Miller and Mark Brereton the club's other available strikers on the books are hoping they can deliver the firepower up front.

The club has in hand the erection of another set of players dug-outs at their Red House Ground and are once again sponsored by The Care Company.
