Well yesterday didnt go to plan. We hosted Denbigh wanders vets down at Gresford Colliery Sports & Social Club in the 2nd NEWFA league game of the season.

We hoped to carry our progress forward from 2 weeks ago, but it wasnt to be. After going up 1-0 in the 1st 5 minutes, denbigh held tough and managed to put 3 past us in reply. Final score gresford 1 - denbigh 3.

Some positives to take from the game but it just wasnt our day, the woodwork being our enemy at times, but showing signs of great team rotation, and all players fighting for positions

We lick our wounds, and get ready to go again this coming sunday, where we welcome Acton Football Club vets to gresford for match day 3 💪🏻⚽️

Well the 1st game of the new season is now done and dusted. And what a game it was.

We knew playing White Bear FC would be a close game, as it always has between us the last couple of seasons, but we managed to get 3 points on the board in the end. A great display of teamwork brought it home for us.

⚽️ Final score 4-3 to Gresford Vets ⚽️

Goals from
Jason x1
Kirk x2
Matty x1

A rest now before we welcome Denbigh wanderers to Gresford Colliery Sports & Social Club on Sept 6th

Here we go it’s game day!

MATCHDAY |

Well it's finally here and after some to-ing and fro-ing we do indeed start the 26/27 campaign at home!

We welcome Gresford Colliery Vets to Mancot Lane in the Division 2 opener. Gresford are no strangers to us having been with us in the league the last 2 seasons and we're a step on our way to the veterans cup Semi Final in 24/25.

Our record against them in the league is actually played 4, won 2 lost 2 (Bear lead by one goal on goal difference) which means 2 evenly matched teams and a great game in prospect. Its going to be 19 degrees in the sunshine with a gentle breeze so perfect conditions to get yourselves down to support the lads.

Don't forget it's pints afterwards at The White Bear with Cheeky Pig running their BBQ Tent.

What a Sunday in store!

Come on the Bear! 🟢⚪🐻‍❄️
