U12  Beaulieu  5  Fleet Gladiators  3  (SPL Div 1) 
Today was one of those days where the boys just did not seem up for it from the start and never really managed to get their passing game going and fell behind early in the game to a good strike from an acute angle from the Beaulie Striker. The score remainded 1-0 until early into the 2nd half when the ref awarded a very soft free kick just outside the area (actually looked like the opposition player tripped his team mate up) which sailed into the top corner of the net. Beaulieu scored their 3rd when we failed to clear the ball out of defece, but a well worked goal saw Sam Amiri pull a goal back for the Gladiators. Unfortunately almost from kick off confusion in our defence put the opposition's forward through on goal and he calmy slotted into the net. The Gladiators didn't give up and almost from kick off again, a wonderful passing move between Simran, Luke and Harry led to Sam bundling the ball into the back of the net to make it 4-2. Another weak clearance again meant that the ball fell nicely to the feet of a Beaulieu player who blasted the ball into the net from distance (aided with the help of the strong wind) With time running out Harry scored a consilation goal from close range to make the final score 5-3.

U12  Elm Grove Rhinos  0  Fleet Gladiators  2  (SPL Div 1) 
The Gladiators started their League campaign with a hard fought 2-0 victory against league leaders and free scoring Elm Grove. The boys were down to the bare 11 players today and didn't have the luxury of any substitutes but this didn't seem to effect them at they started the game the more lively and went ahead within the first 10 minutes with a suberbly taken finish from Tom Ellis. The Gladiators pilled on the pressure but could not find the curcial 2nd goal in the first half and had to endure a wave of Elm Grove attacks just before the break but the defence & keeper kept the opposition at bay. The 2nd half started as the 1st had left off with Elm Grove stated to increase the pressure, but our defence was equal to everything that was thrown at them. We then started to create and find space with Luke, Sam and Simran all going close. The game looked as if it was going to take a dramatic twist when the referee awarding Elm Grove a free kick for hand ball when one of our boys picked the ball up even though the ball had clearly gone out of play (by about a yard!) and despite the opposition's linesman flagging that it had indeed gone out the ref awarded the kick just outside the area. From the resulting free kick the ball agonisingly hit the upper side of the net, so justice was done. Elm Grove continued to look for the equaliser but our defence stood firm. Minutes later from a brilliant defensive clearance from Marcus, Tom neatly controlled the ball and shot with his 2nd touch which saw the ball beat the diving keeper and into the back of the net. Another fantastic effort from in form Tom. The game kicked off again but the ref blew for full time. A brilliant all round display of football from both sets of players. Well done to the boys today who played their hearts out today against a very tough team, especially as we had no substitutes available and several of the boys were carrying injuries that normally would have seen them come off - but they all stuck to the task to secure our 1st league win of the season.

U12  Mayford Wanderers  7  Fleet Town Gladiators  2  (SPL Premier League) 
The Gladiators tough start to the season continued when we were down to play a strong Mayford side who finished 4th in the Premier League last season. Unfortunately the Gladiators were second best throughout the game and only showed glimpses of how they really can play with two well worked goals by Sam Amiri & Tom Ellis. We did have more chances but we lacked composure when in front of goal and once again conceeded some simple goals (most of them from long range!!) Andrew Pope & Harry Winkley shared the man of the match award for battling performances whilst Jonny Gammer was awarded the Effort Award by the parents.

U12  Fleet Town Gladiators  0  Imber Court Juniors  4  (SPL Premier League) 
The newly promoted Gladiators started their first game in the Premier League against tough opposition in the form or Imber Court Juniors who were very close to being crowned the champions the previous season. After a strong start to the game where each team cancelled each other out, the Gladiators eventually conceeded 3 goals in a 15 minute spell before half time despite playing some neat passing moves. They came out more fired up after the break and could have pulled a goal back straight from kick off only to be denied by the Imber Court Goalkeeper. The Gladiators had all the play and continued to have good periods of passing but chances were at a premium with Ben Short going closest with a well struck shot which unfortunately the goal keeper was able to gather. The Gladiators defence stayed solid with captain Luke Robinson making a last ditch goal line clearance and just as it looked as if the 2nd half would end honours even, Imber Court scored their 4th goal with the last kick of the match from a well worked corner. Overall the result did not reflecrt the efforts of the boys as this seemed a much closer game. Man of the match award went debutant Alex Wilson for a cracking 1st game in defence and also his attacks during the 2nd half. Effort Award went to Louis Baker in goal who made some brilliant saves in the 1st half.
