Match Report
Bedworth United 1 Chasetown 0
16th February 2008

United gained their first win since December 1st last year and what a well earned win it was.

The boys from Staffordshire will want to forget this game as soon as possible and get back to their videos and watch re-plays of this seasons FA Cup exploits, although the Greenbacks won by the slender margin of one nil it could have been a lot more , but for some fine goal keeping from former Bedworth player Lee Evans .

Manager Liam O`Neil paraded his two latest signings to the large crowd , Paddy Connoly from Stratford Town and Rugby Town loanee Akim Aladetown .

United started the game attacking the Pool end , but in the opening period their visitors had the better of chances with with ex Greenback player Scott Clamp heading wide from a Dean Craven cross on fifteen minutes. Ex Scholar player Paul Spacey sent a good pass through to Adam Kinder whose shot forced Evans into making a great finger tip save on twenty five minutes, to deny his former club from taking the lead. Evans was again called into action , just after the half hour mark again denying Kinder.

The second half belonged to men in green, although Chasetown found the net in the first minute but Danny Smith was adjudged to have been off side and five minutes later Aladatown was denied a goal scoring chance by Lucan Spittle

United broke the deadlock on sixty four minutes when Jamie Williams jigged his way through the Scholars defence and found Aladatown via a Joe Williams deflection to grab his first goal for his new club
.
Williams had a good chance to double the scoreline but his shot flew over the crossbar on seventy seven minutes from about sixteen yards out .  Ten minutes from time the visitors should have equalised after Ben Steane put through Nick Hawkins but his wayward shot went over the United`s cross bar.

Managers View

"That has just been waiting to happen it all boils down to the fact that we had a full side out, with a striker to compliment what Kinder has been doing for the last few games, that's the best we have done since i have been in charge".
