Sunday sees the Raptors return to League action in what should be a competitive fixture at home to AFC Tickton.

After success in the cup last week and victory in the last league game, the lads will be looking to keep continuing to build on whats been a positive start to the league campaign, as both teams currently have identical records in the league.

Full details are listed below.

Yesterday's game saw the Raptors at home in the cup against Mill Lane Lions and as you can see it was productive day in the office for the boys.

The first half started off and the lads made an impact within a few minutes with a great Assist from Kai to Mason making it 1-0 with Mason continuing his goalscoring form.

The first half didnt see much in regards to goals after that but there was some brilliant football been played down both flanks.

The second half started with the same momentum as the first half from the Raptors not allowing Mill Lane to break through until they had one chance on a break where Cooper pulled out a lovely fingertip save off the crossbar to keep his clean sheet and at 1-0 that could of easily of changed the momentum of the game.

The lads went on from that little glimpse of loose concentration amd quickly snapped back into taking control of the game again using the width of the pitch well to take move forward and press the Mill Lane defence which led to another lovely taken goal from Mason to slot it past the keeper from a lovely through ball from ben cutting in from the right hand side.

The lads then wrapped the game up with the 3rd goal which came from a corner from Riley "Ginge" that the Mill Lane defence failed to clear and ended up putting it into their own net.

Overall a great team performance and the lads first clean sheet I believe which shows the vast amount of improvement they all have acquired over the last few months.

CPOTM- Harvey. Although not mentioned previously Harvey has just returned from injury this week and the determination he showed and effort in the game wasn't unnoticed as he was involved in everything that went down from the build up in the goals to nearly getting himself one great work mate keep it up.

PPOTM - Oli. The parents picked Oli as their man of the match and rightly so as he closed everything down in the LB position showing great attitude and willingness to learn new roles but also showing his versatility when he came back on, up left wing he was involved in everything and nearly bagged himself a goal aswell.

Special mentions - couple of lads I want to quickly mention are Mason and Cooper

Well done mate keep it up.

HESSLE SPORTING RAPTORS 2
BARHAM AFC ATHLETIC 1

The Raptors got back to winning ways with a hard earned, hard fought victory at Recca.

The 1st half was a tight affair, with neither side really controlling or getting a foothold in the game.

Chances were few and far between and openings that came the Raptors way were snatched at. Infact the best chance of the first half probably fell to Barham but Cooper made a smart stop to push a well placed shot around his right hand post.

The 2nd half started in a similar fashion with neither side really exacting any control as the the game became scrappy and littered with niggly fouls, it was Barham who took the lead as they took advantage of a defensive mix up with a neat finish.

The positive from here was the lads didnt allow the set back to affect them, if anything it acted as a wake up call and honours was even soon after when Barham failed to clear a corner and Mason was allowed to bundle the ball home for 1-1

With the clock running down the Raptors kept pushing looking for the winner and as a throw in from Edward into Barhams was only half cleared, it fell to Harry on the corner of the box who either struck a looping shot or a speculative cross that dropped into to the top right hand corner of the Barham net, 2-1.

Only Harry will know if it was a cross or a shot, but regardless they all count the same.

Great strike and a goal that proved to be the winner. Three points to the Raptors.

Final score: HESSLE SPORTING RAPTORS 2 - BARHAM AFC ATHLETIC 1

Coaches MOTM: Mason - Mason was nonstop in the 2nd half, as his power and direct running was a constant thorn in the side to Barhams defenders, never allowing them to settle. He well deserved his goal, and on another day could of had a brace as he had a shot come back off the inside of the post. Well done Mason 👏👏👏

Parents MOTM: Harry - Harry continues to improve week in, week out and his goal today, meant or not, was rich reward for his constant improvement. Well done Harry 👏👏👏

Let's take a look at this weeks trainer or in this case trainers of the week. This week it went to the full team for the weekly award because of the effort they displayed in the drills firstly taking to the bleep test which saw them last 20 minutes and up to level 10 at least for most of them.

They then went onto a possession drill which was undertaken superbly by the lads before finishing off with a game.

Each week these lads improve and its a joy to see there was one who received the trainer of the session certificate and that was Harry who is really showing he is a top player in his improvement in his all round game.

Well Done everyone keep it up 👊

Afternoon All.

The current International Window has allowed time for the first update on The Hessle Sporting Raptors Accumulator Bet 2026/2027.

Its still early days, with plenty more goals to be scored and points to be earned across all four divisions, but the accumulator is already a tight affair.

Also now seems like a good time to declare that in fairness to ALL players, the sins of Manchester City shouldnt effect the players of the bet.

So SHOULD Manchester City or ANY teams recieve a points deduction before the end of the season this will NOT be implemented into the Accumulator.

However those who have chosen teams with a points deduction already in place BEFORE the bet started (ie Southampton) that deduction will remain in place, as this was known before the accumulator began.

Hope this adds some clarity.

Up the Raptors 🖤🤍

(Apologies for any names spelt wrong, im working off applications submitted 🙂)

East Riding Rangers 3
Hessle Sporting Raptors 1

A frustrating and difficult afternoon for the Raptors, as the lads impressive start to the season came to a shuddering stop.

The Raptors where largely the better side in the first half and took the lead from a looping finish from Kajetan after Riley P put him in with a ball over the top.

However, signs that the lads was losing their way in game started to show and they were architects of their own downfall as a loose back pass was punished by East Riding Rangers to make it 1-1.

And as the lads lost shape and confidence, Cooper made a brilliant save from point blank range to make sure both teams went in on level terms at at 1-1.

Half Time : 1-1

The second half was a frustrating affair as substitutions and players being shifted positions seem to unsettle the rhythm of the team and they never really had the same control in the 2nd half as they did in the 1st, and sadly it was an error from goalkeeper Cooper proved costly and put Rangers 2-1 infront.

Being a goalkeeper can be the loneliest place in the world when something like that happens, i personally would prefer to concentrate on the positives and point towards the brilliant save he made in the first half.

As the lads looked to get back in the game and with time against them, the Raptors went to three at the back, but as they went in search of the equaliser the lads was caught on the counter and East Riding Rangers sealed the game with a third goal.

Overall a frustrating afternoon, as a match that they largely controlled in the 1st half, got away from us in the 2nd and individual mistakes from the team proved costly.

Chins up lads, we go again, and remember its just a game.

Final Score: East Riding Rangers 3 - Hessle Sporting Raptors 1.

Coaches MOTM: Oliver - Ollie has shifted from wide midfield/attack in recent weeks and put in a solid display a fullback, doing the basics well and keeping things simple. Well done Ollie.

Parents MOTM: Ruben/Harry, Well done lads
