FA YOUTH CUP DEFEAT |
| Date: 27/09/07 |
Poppies' under 18 squad bowed out of the FA Youth Cup in a battling fashion on Tuesday 25th. Going into the game with an understrength side, they gave a good account of themselves in a six goal thriller at the Vic. Poppies' goals coming from Handyside on 32 and Elliott on 85. Had a chance on 2 minutes been converted when the visiting keeper spilled the ball and it dribbled agonisignly along the goal line, it might have been a different story. Still we scored the best goal of the game through Handyside, small consolation I know.

FA YOUTH CUP UPDATE- UNDER-18s PROGRESS! |
| Date: 13/09/07 |
MATCH REPORT; FA YOUTH CUP- Preliminary Round
Wednesday 12 September 2007
BASHLEY 1 POPPIES 2
A second visit to Bashley in 48 hours for the club saw our Under-18 side triumph in a close run game that was a good all round performance and sees us progress in the FA Youth Cup. Kicking towards the Clubhouse, Poppies had the ball in the net in the opening attack of the game, through Hatch, but it was ruled out as offside, however with our hosts on the back foot, a minute later a long throw from Keith was looped goal bound off the head of Billom-Smith leaving the keeper rooted to the ground to make it 1-0.
We had to change our game plan slightly on the quarter hour when Caples was forced off through injury, with Foster coming on as replacement he offered a further outlet upfront with his height. This was highlighted on 12 minutes when the Bashley defence was in disarray with Da Silva’s mazy run forcing a corner that resulted in Billom-Smith looking for a second- that was deflected over the bar by team mate Price near the goal line.
The ball was swept up to the other end and from a corner on 16 minutes Bash were back in it when Maher converted from close range with a free header.
We continued to take the game to Bashley and our hosts were forced into a succession of challenges that gave us free kicks, but we were unable to get back in front at this time.
Poppies dominated for most of the opening period and on the half hour a long range effort from Foster was parried away for a corner. Five minutes later a solo run from halfway by Handyside went unchallenged until it was too late, and his strike flashed in leaving the keeper with no chance.
Moments before the half time whistle, Billom-Smith had a further chance to extend our lead when his header was scrambled away in another goal line clearance.
Although the second period was goalless, Poppies could probably have done without the break and continued to hold sway for long periods of the game. However, it became clear that some of our players were beginning to flag, and Bashley began to put together some penetrating runs that saw Roberts called upon on a number of occasions. Not least when in the last minute of normal time an equaliser was denied by a fine point blank save.
We had two further chance to extend our lead the first on 56 minutes when again we had the ball in the net but again the assistant’s flag pulled it back, and on 63 a Handyside effort tested the keeper from distance.
Bashley’s best effort came on 83 when Roberts was forced into making a second attempt on a save- following a thundering drive from Snelgrove, then as play drew to the finish, made that all so important stop to deny extra time and we were through to the next round- a home tie against a Poole Town side, who had triumphed 3-2 on penalties the previous night against Dorchester Town that finished 1-01 after extra time.

Bashley: Josh Digby, Chris Castle (Rob Patterson 72), Dan Maher, Mike Snelgrove (capt), Charlie Quinn, Dean Le Cocq, Shaun Green, George Gunn, Matt Nabney, Ben Roberts, Jason Steadman. Unused subs: Matt Brown, Andy Dingwall, Nobin Tarafpar, Tom Boreham.

RESERVES REVERSE IN COMBINATION CUP |
| Date: 13/09/07 |
MATCH REPORT; Wessex Combination Cup 1st Round
Monday 10 September 2007
BASHLEY RESERVES 4 POPPIES RESERVES 2
Poppies eventually succumbed to their Division 1 rivals in a well fought cup tie at Bashley Road. It looked all over at half time as our hosts had moved into a two goal lead; with goals from Tarr on 15 and Wilson on 32.
We did create our own chances though and our first corner on 5 minutes wasn’t cleared and Kot teed up a shot for skipper Muir who fired at goal but it went past the post.
Early warning signs should have been noted barely two minutes later when Joryeff was completely unmarked in front of goal only to scoop his effort well over the bar, and again when Tanner’s effort crashed off one of our defenders- and on 15 minutes Tarr was found free close in and the striker converted easily from a Wilson cross.
Roberts was making some fine runs at the defence and his best effort around 22 minutes was thwarted by a last ditch challenge from Burch.
Bashley extended their lead on 32 minutes when Wilson found himself free in the area and was able to slide the ball home following a Tanner through ball.
Vaughan made a fine save on 49 and was called on again on 53 to smother the ball. We then began to get back into the game and on the hour, some ball wizardry from Kot put Bashley on the back foot and shaking off a couple of challenges his run took him into the penalty area, where after drawing out the keeper, he unselfishly squared it for Roberts to slot home.
It was well and truly game on just six minutes later when a Labedzki miscue was gratefully headed home by King, causing scenes of jubilation on the away bench.
A cup upset was not to be though as McCarthy capitalised on some slack marking, after we conceded a sloppy foul, to get our hosts back in front; with Vaughan only able to palm the ball into the far corner and on 79 minutes it was all over when Bashley made a quick break from midfield and Tanner’s searching ball forward picked out Wilson who completed his brace by drawing out our keeper and sliding the ball home.
LINE-UPS
Bashley: Harper, Burch (Blackmore), Williams, Riley, Hastings, McCarthy, Joryeff (Brock), Tanner (Harris), Tarr, Wilson, Burden. Unused Subs: Webb, Yeo.
Poppies: Vaughan, Brown, Cole, Cox, McGrath, Barbour (Williams), Muir, Eaton, Roberts, Kot (King), Uddin (Labedzki). Unused Subs: Hatch, Rhodes.
SCORERS
Bashley: Tarr 15, Wilson 32, 79, McCarthy 71.

Maximum Points over Christmas |
| Date: 02/01/07 |

| Date: 03/12/06 |
The Reserves bowed out of the competition at the "first" hurdle going our 1-3 to Bournemouth League Division 2 rivals Old Oakmeadians. Rohel Uddin grabbed our consolation at the Vic.

LEAGUE CUP GAME |
| Date: 18/10/06 |
The 2nd Round tie, scheduled for 24 October, will now be against QK Southampton. Romsey Town being removed for fielding an illegible player.

|
|
SALISBURY CITY FRIENDLY |
| Date: 18/10/06 |
The Poppies made the short trip to Salisbury City on Tuesday 17 October to play a friendly. The game was organised at short notice to give our players a decent work out against a decent side.

TOTTON GAME ABANDONED |
| Date: 07/09/06 |
Our visit to Testwood Park on Tuesday was abandoned on 42 minutes when there was a floodlight failure, the goal less game was evenly poised, so we will have to make a second vbisit later in the seaon. The later the better because of the midges that congregate at the ground in the summer- and they had a field day on the flesh of the spectators!

NEXT SEASON, WE'LL BE IN THE PREMIER DIVISION!! |
| Date: 24/05/06 |
Wessex Two will become Wessex One and Wessex Three will become Wessex Two.
But the 2005/06 champions, Winchester City, runners up, Thatcham Town and third placed Andover have all moved up to the newly named Southern League South & West Division, and Portland United have resigned.
No other clubs will be relegated from last season’s Wessex One, and it is rumoured that four other teams will be joining the top flight namely, Brading Town (3rd), Downton (4th), Horndean (6th) and Ringwood Town (9th); all meet grading requirements.
The inclusion of these four clubs will no doubt upset Locks Heath, who ended up as champions of Wessex Two, fully nine points ahead of second placed Hayling United.
Division 2 Champions Locks Heath may miss out as their ground apparently doesn't meet the grading requirements.
Laverstock & Ford, who finished second in Wessex Three last season and Verwood Town, who finished third, look certain to be going into the new Wessex One when the 2006/07 campaign gets under way and Ordnance Survey are set to become Stoneham (to reflect their new home presumably), and Warminster Town (Wiltshire League-formerly Western League a couple of years back) and Gillingham Town (Dorset Premier League) are also rumoured to be joining the new Wessex One.
Things to be decided for certain at the League AGM in June, but could this be the set up?
1. AFC Newbury
2. AFC Totton
3. Alton Town
4. Bemerton Heath Harlequins
5. Bournemouth Poppies
6. Brading Town
7. Christchurch
8. Cowes Sports
9. Downton
10. Fareham Town
11. Gosport Borough
12. Hamble ASSC
13. Hamworthy United
14. Horndean
15. Lymington Town
16. Moneyfields
17. Poole Town
18. Portland United
19. Ringwood Town
20. VT FC
21. Wimborne Town
plus one more for 22, could it be BAT Sports?
