FULL TIME 🔵⚪

Bardney Panthers Vets F.C 1–3 Nettleham Over 35s

3 points to start the season! 👊

Once we’d got over the shock of the facilities 👀 the lads settled down and started to play some decent football.

With an estimated xG of around 8.2, there was some finishing on display that we’ll politely describe as embarrassing (mentioning no names 😉😂)

In fairness, the Bardney keeper had an absolute worldie, producing save after save to keep the score down 👏

Plenty we could have done better, but 3 goals, 3 points and a winning start to the season. We’ll take that! 💪

Starting XI 🔵⚪

Here’s your Nettleham Over 35s starting XI for tonight’s Lincolnshire Football League season opener away at Bardney Panthers Vets F.C.

Get yourself down and see what effect a summer of all-inclusive holidays, unlimited buffets and afternoon beers has had on the lads’ fitness levels 😂🍺☀️

🕡 6:30pm kick-off
📍 Bardney, LN3 5SS

Then it’s back to Mulsanne Park for burgers and some much-needed post-match rehydration at the Nettleham Beer Festival 🍔🍻

Probably not the recovery session the sports scientists would recommend but we’ll take our chances. 😅

Matchday Squad 🔵⚪

Here’s your first O35s squad of the season for tonight’s league opener away at Bardney Panthers Vets F.C.

Get yourselves down and back the lads as they look to start the new season with a positive result 👊

🕡 6:30pm kick-off
📍 Bardney, LN3 5SS

With an early kick-off on grass, the first challenge is making sure we actually finish the game before dusk sets in 😂🌙

Then it’s straight back to Mulsanne Park for burgers from Mulsanne Kitchens and some important post-match rehydration at the Nettleham Cricket Club Beer Festival 🍔🍻

Football followed by a beer festival. What more could you want from a Friday night?

🔵⚪️ JUST 2 DAYS TO GO! ⚪️🔵

The new season is almost here!

Nettleham Vets kick off the Lincolnshire Football League Central Division campaign this Friday night, travelling to face Bardney Panthers Vets F.C in an early kick-off to get the August Bank Holiday weekend underway ⚽️

🟡 The boys will be donning the yellow away kit for the first time this season

Whatever the result, it’s straight back to Mulsanne Park afterwards to rehydrate properly at the annual Nettleham Cricket Club Beer Festival 🍻🍻

Let’s hope we can start the season with 3 points and then celebrate accordingly!

Come down and support the lads and hopefully we’ll see plenty of you at the beer festival afterwards! 💙🤍🍺

❌ CANCELLED ❌

Our final pre-season friendly against Crown & Arrows tomorrow night has been cancelled.

Unfortunately, the opposition can’t raise a team, with a number of their players also playing for their Saturday side on Wednesday night.

Probably a blessing in disguise anyway 😂

That brings our pre-season to an early end. Attention now turns to the league! 🔵⚪️⚽️

🔵⚪️ NEW SIGNINGS | 2026/27 🔵⚪️

After a brilliant first season together, finishing 2nd in the Lincolnshire Football League North Division, we’re strengthening the squad ahead of our move into the Central Division for 2026/27 💪

A big welcome to our 6 new additions:

⚽ Sean Frecklington
⚽ Chris Oakton
⚽ Michael Ward
⚽ Kevin Thompson
⚽ Sam Triffitt
⚽ Steven Swinburn

Plenty of quality and experience coming into an already strong group …. and, more importantly at our age, 6 more bodies to help us get through the season 😂

Competition for places just got a little tougher 👀

Nettleham’s pre-season continued with a 4-3 defeat away at Walesby FC Vets in a game where plenty was trialled and experimented with… including 30 minutes for the gaffer and J. Pillay leading the line! 😅

Safe to say there were plenty of lessons learned! 😂

A big thank you to Walesby for their hospitality, and a competitive run-out. We wish them all the very best for the season ahead. 👏

Pre-season concludes on Tuesday 11th August with a trip to Crown and Arrows FC, before our attention turns to the opening league fixture away to Bardney Panthers Vets F.C

A really positive first pre-season run-out for the lads today. 💪⚽️

We came away with a 3-3 draw against a strong Bottesford Town F.C vets team from the Hull and District Veterans Football League … a great test to kick off our preparations for the new season.

A special mention to our 3 debutants, who all looked right at home and put in excellent performances. Brilliant to welcome some new faces into the squad.

There were plenty of positives to take, some really good football played, and valuable minutes in the legs. Lots to build on over the coming weeks.

The season can’t come soon enough! 💙🤍
