Matchday weekend for the Veteran Stags ? After a cup bye in last weeks fixture. The Herd had an action-stacked training session mid-week and everyone looked very sharp. This week we are away to @farnboroughfc Veterans in The Hampshire County Cup. We welcome back some familiar faces who have been away on international duty, including “The Farmers Dog” Ionut Ratoi. A stacked bench, a powerful starting eleven and a new kit to showcase for the Veterans. Club Capitain @ot10ten will be keen to impact the game as he unlocks Benjamin Button Chromosomes in his 200th league appearance in all seasons. Probably. Big Stag Energy! Thank you to our club sponsors @pistondesign @dejamo.uk #UTS ?

7 on the road ⚽️ One of our most complete away days yet. Attitude, discipline and ruthless football from the first whistle. Down a Co-Manager with @chris_c_bee away, @its_blp L led the side alongside stand-in assistant Mark Alexander @alexanmark. A 4am withdrawal from Club Captain Oram-Tooley handed the armband to vice-captain Parker, and an hour-plus on the road due to pitch availability changed nothing. Grant Stapleton had us ahead inside twelve and we never looked back. Jamie Edmondson with two, Kareem Davis on the half hour, Marius Melinte after the break, and a special one off the bench from the resident Tiger, James Small. Grant Stapleton sealed his brace late. Mondial goals came from a 35-yard screamer (handball missed in the build-up) and two set pieces. We had every answer. Joe Brock commanding in goal, the back four rock solid, and the wingers relentless all afternoon. [Full Match Report Now Online] PoTm: David Nicoll, running the show from midfield. Now we box it up and take it to the next game. No game next Sunday, then The Veteran Stags host the Peter Hodbell Cup game at home to Worplesdon Vets on the 27th. Goals: Stapleton x2, Edmondson x2, Davis, Melinte, Small
Assists: Melinte x2, Stapleton, Parker, Wilson #UTS ?

Retained ✍️ Leigh “Ze Horse” Wilson commits to The Stags for another season. The dynamic and energetic winger adds serious pace to the front line. Wilson scored 10 goals in last years campaign and assisted 6. An important player who isn’t always available, but when he is, causes havoc for wingbacks across the county. “So pleased to have Leigh for an another season” said Co-Manager @chris_c_bee in a recent interview with BBC South Today. “A popular player amongst the squad who chases everything.” Added Parker Wilson is available for the up-coming reverse fixture against Mondial this weekend and is straight into the travelling squad. #UTS ?

Frimley Green 2–1 Whitehill & Bordon FC Veterans Farnham & District League | Division One The Veteran Stags opened their account on the road at a very poor (almost unplayable) Frimley Green Pitch, and while the scoreline reads as a 2–1 defeat, it told almost nothing of the story. On a first outing for a squad featuring eight new faces, this was a performance to build a season on. From the first whistle, the Stags took the game to their hosts, dominating every area of the pitch, moving the ball with purpose and looking the more composed, more dangerous side throughout. Every time they went forward they carried a threat. The game’s defining moment came on 33 minutes. A cross shot from Oram-Tooley was hammered goalwards and clearly crossed the line, the ball well over by some distance, but the goal was not given. On any pitch with goal-line technology, the Stags lead 1–0 at the break and this is a very different afternoon. Instead, a clear goal was chalked off, and the game turned on a decision that should never have been. Conditions did the spectacle no favours either. The playing surface was among the worst the squad has encountered, genuinely unsafe in places, and a real credit to both sides that football was played on it at all. The Stags, to their credit, still tried to play the right way, and largely succeeded. Despite the setback of the disallowed goal, the Stags kept coming. Their persistence was rewarded on 80’ minutes, when a superb James Harvey cross was met by Parker, who made no mistake with a top bins header to level the game - a deserved equaliser and no more than the performance merited. A scuffed-goal against the run of play on 86th minute gave the home team the points. Co-Manager Chris Brown; “In a squad made up of eight new faces today, the boys did themselves proud. Frimley got lucky, they know it, and they won’t be looking forward to the return fixture. Every time we went forward we looked dangerous. No doubt whatsoever we’ll get our revenge.” The Stags are back in action next weekend, at home on a 4G surface, against Mondial Veterans and will be looking to convert this level of performance into three points. We go again #UTS ?
