Weekend Round-up: 14/15 February

Just the one game survived the weather last weekend, where the Under 15s Boys' long run in the London Under 15s Boys Sunday Cup came to an end at the semi-final stage. They couldn't recover from conceding two first half penalties at Redbridge FC's ground in Essex and eventually went down 4-0 to Onside, who will meet AFC Greenwich Borough in the final on 1 March.

Well done to Seb, Dave and the boys who travelled all over the capital and have been a credit to the club and, along with Greenwich, the Kent Youth League.

A new FOBG supporter has arrived!

Congratulations to Eddie Figg and partner Alanna on the birth of Josie Jean Charlotte, on Tuesday 10 February, weighing in at 8lb 3oz. 

We look forward to seeing them all at the club soon!
