Stalybridge Celtic Whites 5 v 1 Moston Valley............By Tim Kieran..........   Another good game today saw the two sides battle hard, Celtic had the majority of the possession and played some outstanding football, with excellent passing, good movement off the ball, each player making themselves available, finding good space, this enabled Celtic to create a lot of goalscoring opportunities. Each player showing good composure on the ball, laying the ball off easy if needed and al... Read the rest of this article...

SCJFC Blues 0 v 4 Moston Junior Blues....By Alun Ireland..... The Blues got a lesson in passing and moving in a difficult game against one of the better teams in the league.   Moston’s organisation, passing, work rate and commitment were outstanding and Celtic struggled to match them.   The Blues had the worst start possible, conceding in the first minute when they gave away possession on the edge of their own box. Thomas had no chance as a well struck shot flew into the r... Read the rest of this article...

 Boundary Park B 0 V 12 SCJFC Whites...........................BY Tim Kieran........................ A slightly different format today Boundary were a player short so the Celtic manager did the fair thing and played five boys instead of the usual six, this didn't change the balance at all with the Celtic boys flying out of the traps and finding themselves one up within thirty seconds - Niall opening the account. To be fair Boundary could have equalised straight after their kick off, Cel... Read the rest of this article...

SCJFC Whites 5 V 0 Failsworth West Tigers...................By Tim Kieran............... Another great performance today saw a rampant Celtic cruise to another deserved victory against well established opponents  The game started a little quiet with both teams finding their feet in the sodden conditions- getting used to the wet ball and zippy ground conditions.   The Celtic boys soon got to grips with the game and with some neat passing from all the team the first goal arrived c...

 Broadway Celtic 0 V 4 SCJFC Blues.......................By Alun Ireland......................................................... The Blues returned to winning ways with a comfortable victory over Broadway Celtic. The scoreline did not reflect Celtic’s dominance as they created chance after chance, easily having more than 20 shots at goal. In terrible conditions, the Blues were quickly out of the traps to immediately dominate position. William ran the game from midfield, ... Read the rest of this article...

Moston Juniors Reds 4 V 2 SCJFC Blues................By Rob Jones............... With hindsight this was a match lost in the first eight minutes as Moston Juniors Reds raced into a three goal lead. Perhaps the early kick-off and the freezing weather contributed to some poor defending leaving the opposition forwards unopposed in front of goal and Deacon with no chance on each occasion. The third goal at least sparked a response and 5 minutes before half-time a corner from Conor was f... Read the rest of this article...

Chaddy End 1 v 7 SCJFC u9's Whites The White team continued their unbeaten record this season with an emphatic win against Chaddy End FC. The football they played today really was top draw with some unbelievable one touch passing and moving which had Chaddy End chasing Shadows. The Boys were 1 up within five minutes a superb Corner move finished by Robson. Further Goals minutes later from Niall and Robson again saw the boys cruising from the start and it really could have been more with some... Read the rest of this article...

Stalybridge Celtic Whites 3 v 0 Midway.......................................By Tim Kieran................................   Not much to write about today, the game could have gone either way, Celtic were below par, but credit must go to the opposition, Midway gave it all they had especially their back line, the team not giving Celtic any time on the ball restricting our play to the odd good move. Both teams had chances to score in the first period and another day maybe could ha... Read the rest of this article...

Middleton Colts 1 V 1 SCJFC Blues.................By Rob Jones....................... This was a frustrating game that the blues should have won convincingly, but bad luck, poor finishing and an outstanding display from Middleton’s keeper resulted in them only taking a point against one of the weaker teams in the league. The Blues were camped in the Middleton half for almost all of the first period, the keeper making fine saves from shots by Adam, Owen and Daniel L. The only tim... Read the rest of this article...

Whitworth Park 2 v 9 SCJFC Whites.............By Tim Kieran....................... A bit of an untidy start to the game, this maybe could be blamed on the opposition turning up over 10 minutes late. Celtic were soon 1-0 up-Callum the scorer, a shot at goal only to see the keeper attempt to kick it to safety and only producing an air kick, with the ball rolling into the net.   Joe nearly made it 2-0 but his effort sailed just past the upright, the score did double with good work from Dec,...
