💜⚽Christow were runners-up today in our first ever cup competition run by the FA

An exciting day of football against other local teams.

Christow 0-2 Shaldon
Christow 2-0 Sharpham
Christow 1-0 Ide

Dave scored all three of our goals, rounding the keeper for the first, a header from a corner for the second, and a strike from distance for the third.

In the final we lost 5-0 to Shaldon as legs grew weary following two hours of football with a thin squad.

We are proud of all the boys making some club history after a long day of football 👌🏻

Match report: Ide Green Rovers 2-4 Christow Palace

A smashing performance from every player. We kept Ide at bay for most of the game. Just one sticky patch when we were 0-3 up and they brought it back to 2-3.

Dave bagged the first goal with a strike from distance which bounced away from the keeper. We had lots of joy with through balls and pace today. Aaron was played through on goal and he finished with aplomb for 0-2. The 5-2-3 worked a treat with Tristan⁩, John⁩ and Dan seeing away all of the danger, including big headers and last ditch tackles when players broke through. 💪0-2 at HT.

Second half began positively. James N made it 0-3 before Ben⁩ hit the bar from a corner. Aaron could also have made it four but his shot was blocked off the line.

Ide mounted a comeback to bring it back to 2-3 but Christow rode the challenge and started to make more chances of their own. Charles rounded the keeper to make it 2-4 in the dying moments of the game.

Well done all!!!!! 💜

MOTM was Dave for an all-round performance - a goal, an assist, and forward runs from midfield.

Christow Palace 3-7 Shaldon Villa

We started first half downhill with Tristan up top. Against the run of play we went 0-1 down. After some good attacking play down the left side, we scored 2 goals in 2 minutes. First, a cross in from Dan caused mayhem and an OG. Then Wayne B passed from the left wing to set up James⁩ N for a good strike. 2-1 Christow.

We were pushing for a third before half time, but just before the break, there was a contentious decision when the ball was picked up by a Shaldon player before it went for a corner, which they then scored from. 2-2 at HT. A big blow that we didn't deserve.

We were down to no subs for much of the second half with Tristan⁩ hobbling off. Like last week, we had to go for the win up against it. A few goals for Shaldon had us 2-5 down - including a penalty decision against James L when a ball hit his arm even though it was by his side.

We scored to make it 3-5 when Matt was taken down to give us our own penalty, which Adam⁩ converted.

Ricky was kicked when playing hot potato on his own goalline, but the ref didn't spot it and it was 3-6, before Michael blocked a shot only for it to loop over our goalie's head to finish the game off... 3-7.

MOTM: Dan for some top defending especially when we were stretched at the back.

Christow Palace 0-2 Sharpham United

MOTM - Rich for keeping and moving the ball on well and another under the radar 90 minutes.

We edged the first half first half. There were openings for James⁩ with a disallowed goal for handball and Ben⁩ on his debut.

In the second half Michael had a deflected strike saved and Liam headed one off the line. Sadly a free kick and then a wonder strike were the difference. Liam put in some crunching challenges, Jack was class again. We also saw Palace legends Rob and Nick come back into the fold.

This league is full of 50:50 games. Today was our first defeat in four. We will grow as a team 📈

Christow Palace 2-2 Shaldon Villa

11-a-side action on Isca School astro. Christow created most of the chances and were unfortunate not to win against one of our long-standing friendly opponents.

Result: Christow Palace 6 - 2 Ide Green Rovers

Had to travel away to the Ottery Astro to get this one on so credit to Tristan Antrobus-Holder and Stu from IDE and LED team for accommodating.
A closer match than the score suggests against our oldest rivals but we controlled the midfield and the defence were superb which ultimately created the opportunities. With the teams spanning over 40 years in age range the return is scheduling for the summer ⚽️🏆🥅🫶🏻

Plenty of possession and great play but no end product and some crazy goals led to a 1-4 loss for Christow Palace Football Club but it sets it up nicely for the return leg back in Totnes.
