Report Had a point been offered at 3.00pm given recent results and against an in-form side eyeing at least a play-off place come April, many in the Peacock fold may have snapped the proverbial hand off but there was undoubtedly a sense at the final whistle that any acceptance of a point before kick-off may…
Report A fourth successive National League South match without finding the net proved the Peacocks’ downfall as they succumbed to a last minute winner in Hertfordshire. At least in their three previous games there had been opportunities created but the 90 minutes at Vauxhall Road generated meagre pickings with little to enthuse the travelling faithful…
Report The Peacocks steadied the ship after two defeats on the bounce with a well-earned point at the Melbourne Community Stadium. Their first half display was particularly assured when they looked the more cohesive unit against an outfit which had reached last season’s Play-Offs, but as in the previous outing at Bath, second half syndrome…
Report Another National League game, another 90 minutes of frustration. Hot on the heels of Saturday’s setback to Hampton & Richmond, the Peacocks were soundly beaten at Twerton Park against their Somerset rivals, sitting one place below them at the start of play. However, had Town made better use of their opportunities in the first…
Report A goal inside the opening two minutes of the game proved sufficient for the West Londoners to become the first side to win at Wordsworth Drive in the National League this season. From then on the Peacocks boasted territorial rights for the remainder of the contest, enjoying lengthy swathes of possession and delivering the…
Report Another point on the road for the Peacocks as they extended their undefeated run in the National League South to an impressive ten games and avoided defeat for the first time against a Dover club following four previous meetings. Equality was about right on an afternoon when Town recovered from conceding inside 20 minutes…
Report On this corresponding weekend ten years ago, the Peacocks had surrendered their lead to slump to a 2-1 defeat at bottom side Guildford City in the Southern League South & West Division before a crowd of 81. An awful performance, as I well remember. Fast forward to 2023 and drink in the progress, this…
Report Let’s start with the positive. Another point gained by the Peacocks towards the ‘safe’ tally of 50 and a result which still keeps them in 5th place. However it could have been a maximum haul had the hosts accepted a gilt-edged opportunity in the final minute of the game, but Nick McCootie’s penalty missed…
Report Some away days produce a real feel good vibe, and this game fits that category perfectly as the Peacocks stretched their unbeaten run in the National League South to seven matches on a baking hot afternoon in Kent. Two goals from Dylan Morgan before the break were reinforced by Nick McCootie in the second…
Report Are you sitting comfortably? Then I’ll begin. Not sure where exactly following 90 minutes of high drama which made up the Peacocks’ highest octane game yet in the National League South and probably for many a season. After going two goals behind, the visitors bossed the majority of the game once the hosts had…
