A friendly round up- Saturday 3rd July 2021

Keeping track of pre-season friendlies is not an exact science, so this round up is made up of detail we got from trawling social media. If we missed anything, please feel free to let us know.

Basildon United won two-nil at Ware, scorers unknown- and if we don’t mention scorers throughout, the same is true.

Basingstoke Town defeated North Greenford United by NINE goals to two, whilst Binfield lost two-one at Berks County.

Bowers and Pitsea hosted our North Division new boys Hashtag United, and it was those social media darlings who ran out the winners, two-one. Sam Bantick got the Hashtag winner from the spot, as they came from behind to take victory. Either Brad Sac or Ade Osifuwa opened the scoring for Bowers (if they don’t know then we have no chance), and O'Rawe got the Tags equaliser.

You can watch the entire match again below:

Sutton Common Rovers drew one-all at Uckfield, with a goal from Tyrell Butler, whilst Staines Town had a similar result against Farnborough. Another draw came in the match between Tooting and Mitcham United and Tooting Bec, but that one was goalless.
