Ramsbury FC win opening game of the season 4-3 against Lambourn FC Devs

Mon Sep 08 2025

With Manager Sean Eviil away at yet another wedding and getting great use out of his sheepskin jacket, it was down to injured Club Capt and newly qualified UEFA C Coach Chris Roberts to take charge of the home match v Lambourn FC Devs. It was a slow start with Lambourn scoring first but 3 quick goals saw the Blue and Whites tale a commanding 3-1 lead. However, a poor defensive error gave a penalty to Lambourn who converted to make it 3-2 at half time. The second half was a scrappy affair with a lack of consistency and Lambourn getting another goal thanks to the referee overruling the linesman to allow what looked to be an offside goal stand and make it 3-3. The Ref then requested the Ramsbury sub doing the linesman duty be changed which was a shame as the young lad had done little wrong but in the spirit of the game the change was made as requested. Ramsbury made a number of forced changes and bludgeoned their way to a winning goal and see the game out with a 4-3 win. Not pretty but they got all 3 points and a win is a win! Club Sec
