A good day for Ceroni and Butler as the the first teams' dream of Carrow Road ends

An unfortunate day for the first team as they exited the 4th round of the Junior Cup against a decent Acles United. Captain Matt Jepson led his side superbly but unfortunately it wasn't enough as the oppostion proved too much and put their chances away. After going behind in the first half, 10 seconds after the restart Nick Gaskell latched onto a John Piper pass and made it 1-1. Unfortunately after dominating the game UEA conceded with 20 minutes left as a cross came in and the striker poked in from 5 yards. As time ran out UEA went 3 at the back to try and equalise which unfortunatley led to Acles killing off the game with only a minute left, final score, Acles United 3 - 1 UEA. Dave Mahoney picked up the 10 bonus points for his star man performance, John Piper coming in a close second place.

Gavin Butlers side bounced back in the league with a 3-0 away win to Wensum Albion. No assists for the goals have been recorded yet but the goals came from Jason Lincoln, Sam Gilliland and new boy Alex Pope. Jonny Tucker picked up the star man award, extremely impressive considering only two weeks ago he was playing for the fourth team.

As we can see in the league UEA reserves are 4 points off the top with a game in hand, and a far superior goal difference(excluding top team), only conceding 7 goals. They will need to defeat Marlborough Old Boys in their next encounter.

After a dissapointing result last week Paolo Ceroni's 4th team came up trumps against South Walsham who were 4th in the league. Some tactical changes helped them to a scorching 7-0 victory. Again clean sheet bonuses all around while Dave Yeomans picked up his first man of the match award this season along with one of the goals. Others were scored by Paolo and Dave Foulis who both got two each and Darryl Wyatt and Steve Harwood picked up their first UEA goals aswell. Assist came from Foulis who got 2, Chris Macdonald who also got two and Liam Martin and Darryl Wyatt getting one each.

The fourths are also 4 points off the top with a game in hand and a similar goal difference to the top team. Things could be tough however for them as they have played the top two teams at home and drawn both times, therefore they might have some tough away games to come. Not to mention their home match in the Shoe Traders Cup this Saturday, a big game against Earlham; a team not as good as they used to be, but will be an extremely tough cookie to crack, oh and they are top of the league aswell.

Here is the 2's league for those who wish to see it, very interesting considering they have only played 6 games and are second.

Love and peace to all
