Tiverton won their second game of the day but this was a tough game that went all the way. Tiverton fell behind early in the game when a corner assisted by the strong wind beat keeper Harrison Burton and the Tiverton defence and flew straight into the net for 1-0 to the Kestrels. Tiverton nearly got level when a scrambled corner fell to Zak Hide who struck just over the bar. However Tiverton were back level when Ash Laskey scrambled home an equaliser in the box from a Kyle Gould cross...Kyle Gould was superb in the middle covering every blade of grass defending and setting up countless attacks for the yellows. Mitch Dart had a shot tipped over for a corner which resulted in Tiverton taking a 2-1 lead when Kyle Gould s driven corner found the head of Connor Roberts who headed the ball into the roof of the net with a powerful trademark header. The score became 3-1 minutes later when a cross was turned into his own net by a Heavitree defender. Tiverton then allowed the Kestrels a break away opportunity. Caught short at the back they allowed the dangerous Heavitree no 9 to go around Tivvy keeper Burton and made it 3-2 at half time. The second half was tight and a little scrappy although Tiverton looked in control even thought their opponents were testing the defence throughout Tiverton held on and closed out the game. This helped when they went 4-2 ahead when Jordan Mitchell slammed the ball home from close range following a cross by Kyle Gould. The Kestrels keeper then made two great stops one from Laskey tipping his effort onto the bar and then following that up by saving one handed again from a Ashley Laskey shot. Tivvy did let Heavitree grab a third from a breakaway which resulted in a tap in at the far post but Tiverton had done enough and hung on for the victory in an entertaining game.

Tivvy ground out a second win even though they were exhausted as a team at the finish they kept going and got a second win of the day. Missing two players left the yellows with seven players for both games and they produced a team effort to be proud of. They opened the scoring against their opponents who were bigger in stature than their Tivvy opponents when Kyle Gould fed a lovely ball to Ashley Laskey to open the scoring. Kyle Gould gave another superb midfield performance in both games and was winning all the midfield balls and creating attacks for tiverton at every opportunity. Gould had another low shot excellent parried for a corner by the Wolves keeper. At the other end Tivvy keeper Burton tipped a ferocious shot wide for a corner and handled several through balls with excellent reading of the game. The Tivvy players were tiring and the threat of their opponents was apparent. The second half was a battle as Tivvy hung on and Cullompton grabbed an equalizer when a through ball slipped through the grasp of the Tivvy keeper and gave the Wolves striker a tap in for a equaliser. Tivvy did not give up and hit the bar in a break away and with one big effort left Kyle Gould was fed in by Ashley Laskey and he lashed a low shot which hit the post bounced off the keeper and hit the oncoming Ashley Laskey who bundled the ball home for Tivvy`s winner with seconds left to end a rollercoaster of a game.

Tiverton produced their best football season against their neighbours having a bare bone squad didn't effect the young yellows and they produced two excellent team displays. The opening few minutes saw Tivvy boss their opponents and they took an immediate lead inside two minutes when Mitch Dart crossed from the wing for the oncoming Kyle Gould to slam home the opener for Tivvy. The two forwards Mitch Dart and Ashley Laskey gave the Coyote defence a torrid time throughout with attacking running with the ball and creating space for openings with superb awareness. Zak hide cracked home a second when the ball fell to him outside the box and he powered in into the bottom corner for 2-0. A Mitch Dart through ball played in striking partner Ashley Laskey for a neat finish for 3-0..Zak Hide had another Long distance shot parried over from the coyotes keeper before Mitch Dart opened his account bundling in a corner for a half time lead of 4-0.Tivvy started the second half in the same manner using excellent touches and speed in their attacking runs. They made it 5-0 when Mitch Dart found space wide and cut inside unleashing a low shot in the bottom corner. Cullompton grabbed a consolation goal when a free kick was conceded outside the Tivvy box and the Coyote player curled the free kick into the top corner past Keeper Harrison Burton who had little action in the game. Tivvy shrugged off the goal and pressed forward again Ashley Laskey scored his second as the ball fell to him in a close range scramble. The Tivvy striker grabbed his second consecutive hat trick in two games when he scored his third goal and Tivvy`s seventh. Receiving the ball out wide he cut inside and outside the coyotes defenders before firing past the keeper to complete an excellent performance by the developing Tivvy under nines.

Tivvy started the games without key playmaker Kyle Gould who was unavailable. The young yellows struggled from the off due to a very uphill slope of a pitch and an opposition who controlled the game using their superior size and strength especially in the midfield areas to out battle their opponents.

The game started scrappy as both teams started battled to gain any possession however the Pinhoe Number 7 was a threat throughout and flashed a long range effort just wide of the far post. The scoring was opened when a cross was allowed across the Tivvy box for a tap in at the far post to give Pinhoe a 1-0 nil lead...It was 2-0 minutes later when a attacking run into the box followed by a shot struck the bar and dropped for a pinhoe striker to tap in for 2-0.Tivvy struggled up the hill however Ashley Laskey struck the post in a rare attack up the hill from the yellows. Tivvy were losing the midfield battle and Pinhoe were passing early causing the tivvy defence a tough time.

Pinhoe made it 3-0 before half time another simple ball across the ball resulting in a tap in from a harrison burton parrie made it 3-0...But for some excellent handling and positioning from Harrison Burton the score could have been higher...Tivvy finished the half with Ash Laskey and Mitch Dart both on the sidelines with cuts and bruises.

The second half was a marked improvement. Tivvy keeping their opponents away from the danger zone however one minute in the ball fell to the Pinhoe number 7 who launched a shot from inside his own half which flew over Harrison Burton and into the top corner a great goal by any standards!!! The game was over but Tivvy kept working and pushing Mitch dart creating some clever link play with Ashley Laskey and using the wings to good effect. The final ball just letting the yellows down. They got a goal they deserved when a corner in was headed out to Zak Hide and he volleyed into the bottom corner...Tivvy pushed again Ashley Laskey volleying into the net from wide on the touchline but the ref ruling that the ball had just crossed the line...Harsh decision on what was a great effort...The game filtered out and Tivvy learnt lessons on a slow start and not marking tightly during the first half.

Value for money this game had everything goals, action and a never give up attitude from both teams...Tivvy got off to the worst start not learning from the last games mistakes. A ball into the box and a tap in at the far post for one nil to the spartans. MInutes later a shot hitting the post and falling for another tap in for 2-0..Scratching of heads from the coaching staff followed...Tivvy urged on by their fans and coaching team grabbed themselves back into the game when a lovely cross from Mitch dart found Ash Laskey at the far post who slammed home to make it 2-1..Dangerous dart volleyed a rebound narrowly wide and Tivvy looked like the team that we have come to expect!! One of the goals of the season then came when Mitch Dart hugged the touchline and with a quick shift of feet beat one man then cut inside another before chipping the Pinhoe keeper from an acute angle a great goal and 2-2 at the break...

The second half started and Tivvy let Pinhoe back in the lead again when a shot cannoned off Tivvys latest recruit and defender George and into the net...Unlucky and nothing that could be done. A great couple of performances from George on his debut however and a promising future ahead beckons..

Tivvy had to claw back into the game again. Ash Laskey firing just over and just wide from two surging runs into the box. Zak hide seeing a half way line shot scrambled around the post by the spartans keeper. The goal was coming and did when another lovely cross by dart on the left wing was half volleyed in by Ashley Laskey for his second and the scores leveller with two minutes left! Urged on Tivvy kept going and won the game with seconds remaining when a shot was parried by the keeper in a goalmouth scramble and Ash Laskey finished for his hat trick and a last second winner for Tivvy!!. The two forwards Dart and Laskey were excellent throughout and the Man of the match award was tough to choose between them both!!

An edge of the seat game Tivvy never gave up and showed great spirit and a deserved win!!!

Goalscorers - Laskey 3, Dart         Man of the Match - Ashley Laskey

A much improved performance from Tivvy right from the off of this game often playing some of their best passing and movement football this year...Every player was well motivated for the game and had shaken off their earlier disappointment to make amends in this game.

Ashley Laskey gave a excellent hardworking performance giving Broadclyst problems with his powerful surging runs and determination. Tivvy opened the scoring when a Laskey run caused the defence to bring him down on the edge of the box Laskey stepped up to smash the ball into the corner from the resulting free kick with some power. Ashley Laskey grabbed his second soon after when the ball broke to him in the box and he prodded home from close range for his second and Tivvy s second.

Connor Roberts lifted the ball onto the blues crossbar after a scramble in the goalmouth. Mitch Dart dragging a shot just wide of the far post and a lovely three touch move between three players resulted again in the Dangerous Dart firing just over. The move was a joy to watch and got applause from the visiting fans and coaches alike. The Broadclyst keeper saving from Connor Roberts close range shot and denying Ashley Laskey his hat trick with a brave block. Kyle Gould got his first of the game with a smart turn and shot and Mitch Dart got the goal he deserved when a firmly struck shot spilled out of the keepers hands for a half time lead of 4-0 to the yellows. Clarke Davidson replaced Connor Roberts for the start of the second half and he carried on his excellent performance by charging into the box to prod against the bar from a scrambled corner. However he didn't miss seconds later when the ball was played across the box and Davidson smashed the ball into the roof of the net. A lovely one two between Kyle Gould and Clarke Davidson sent Kyle Gould in for his second and Tivvy`s Six of the game and the rout was completed when Kyle Gould latched onto a loose ball to smash into the corner for his hat trick and the top goal scorers mantle leading into the Christmas break...Great performance lads. You all deserve a great Christmas!!

Tivvy gave possibly their worst display of the season on a freezing cold morning which didn't help either sides but their opponents coped with the conditions the better. The game was scrappy for the first 5 minutes neither side being able to get the ball down and play. Brixington opened the scoring with their first real attack forward a long ball catching Connor Roberts a bit flat footed the ball catching his hand as he jumped to head the ball away. The resulting free kick on the edge of the box flew into the net with goalkeeper Harrison Burton helpless although the young yellows were not alert to the cry's of keeper Burton who was demanding a wall in front of the kicker. Lesson learnt boys...

Tivvy huffed and puffed in the cold Kyle Gould close range shot well held by the blues keeper and a cross field shot begging for a touch at the back post also went astray for Tivvy. Harrison Burton again kept a fine game in goal and blocked a one on one effort to keep Tivvy in the game at the break.

The second half started strongly as Tivvy went at Brixington getting back in the game and then allowing the visitors to nick the win. Mitch Dart chased a long through ball from Clarke Davidson and harrassed the centre back who ended up smashing the ball into his own goal for 1-1...

Mitch Dart and Kyle Gould again flashed efforts just over and across the box. Clarke Davidson got his first start of the season and worked exceptionally hard in the midfield tracking up and down and laying the passes off to set up Tivvy attacks and really deserved the man of the match award for a hardworking performance...Well done Clarke!

Tivvy got caught with a few minutes left when a quick throw caught the defence to far up the pitch and the Blues forward powered into the box and slotted home. Tivvy again got caught to far up the pitch on another couple of occasions and were thankful to Harrison Burton to keep the score down...A two one defeat but not a great performance overall.

Thorverton went into the game as the team topping the league and looked every inch the team in that position during the first half. Ryan Doble replaced Connor Roberts for the start of the game as Tivvy opted for a more defensive set up. However after ten seconds of the game the ball bounced kindly just inside the Tivvy half and was volleyed into the top corner of the net by the Thorverton midfielder a fantastic strike and possibly one of the goals of the season. Tivvy were rattled Zak Hide came off suffering with the effects of a heavy cough throughout both games and Connor Roberts replaced him in the back with Jordan Mitchell...Tivvy worked hard to get a foot hold in the game and a surging run from Kyle Gould the ball breaking to the oncoming Mitchell Dart who was backing up superbly he took a touch and calmly slotted the ball under the Thorverton keeper.

The game turned a little scrappy with neither team getting hold of the game, Thorverton then came to life again and a quick break down the line and a cutting ball across the Tivvy box found a Thorverton player at the back post who took a touch and drilled the ball low and hard for 2-1 to the league leaders. Tivvy were rattled and began to lose their shape at the back and seconds later a Thorverton attack down the wing and a casual cross into the Tivvy box crept all the way through and found the bottom corner to make it 3-1 as half time came at the right time for Tivvy to re group.

The second half started and the performance from the yellows was first class they worked hard limiting Thorverton to little more than half chances the second half was void of chances for both sides. However Tivvy hassled every loose ball and dominated possession at times even though they found the thorverton back line tough to break down the way they took the game to Thorverton and didn't let their heads drop was superb and won some very complimentary comments from the Thorverton management team and supporters alike.

Ryan Doble emerged as man of the match for a consistent defensive performance throughout the game keeping to the basics and fast improvement week by week in this position.

A hard lesson learnt for the young yellows in a match they dominated from the first whistle creating plenty of chances throughout the game. The game started strongly with the Tivvy midfield of Kyle Gould and Connor Roberts using their pace and strength respectively to get control of the ball and Jordan Mitchell constantly creating problems by surging runs down the wing...

Mitchell dart and Kyle Gould flashed shots across the face of the Exwick Goal as Tivvy penned their opponents in their own half for most of the first half. Exwick broke on a couple of occasions but safe handling from Harrison Burton and one flying tip around the post kept the goal intact. Mitchell dart struck a post as the half came to an end with Tivvy well on top...

The second half started again with Tivvy pressing Connor Roberts again controlling the middle of the pitch by using excellent heading abilities to clear any Exwick Long balls into his attacking third of the field. Tenacious tackling by Jordan Mitchell kept the back line tight and Zak Hide pushing himself with his usual consistency and high tempo defending gave little away.

Ashley Laskey caused problems with a couple of surging runs one which saw a shot hit the Exwick crossbar and teeing up a another Tivvy shot on goal which ended with the post being struck again for the third time in the game!!!

However with four minutes to go a long ball caught Tivvy stretched a little and the Exwick forward laid off a ball across the box for an oncoming player to control cut inside a despairing Tivvy tackle and slam the ball into the Tivvy net for the goal which won the game. Tivvy kept pushing hard throwing players forward and nearly got caught on two to three occasions over pushing but poor passes or excellent handling and blocking from Harrison Burton kept the score down....Lesson learnt got to take your chances...A cracking game and effort never the less!!
