The final turned out to be the most exciting spectator event and was probably one of the toughest and closest matches we have played – a fitting end to the 10-year journey that the Goats have been on. Of the 34 teams entered from all around Cornwall, for the second year running at the final whistle, … Continue reading
“LUKE Cup” Semi – Final 2017
The Goats had their ‘away day’ to Bude yesterday to compete in the Cornwall FA Luke Cup. The importance of the occasion dawned on the players when we had to ask for an increase in the match day sub to cover the 4 officials that the FA had allocated for the match. 1 ref, 2 … Continue reading
League matches vs Charlestown on 19th and 26th Feb 0-1 & 3-2
It hasbeen a long break between the Godolphin match and by a quirk we have back to back games against the League leaders Charlestown Dynamos.

6th League Match vs Godolphin
A match in difficult windy conditions. I’ll quote Matt “Great finish to your 2016 matches. Godolphin 1-4 Wendron. Cold, windy morning at Treviglas. Really difficult conditions, but both teams did their best to keep the ball down and play. In my opinion, it was a brilliant team performance! Danny assured and vocal in goal. Dale, … Continue reading

3rd League match vs Penzanze U16
I’ll quote Matt’s match report “Well earned 6-1 win at Penzance. Started unusually sharp today, creating several chances and testing the keeper. Yeshe heading the opener and Cameron the second.

Cornwal FA County Champions – U15
Well done lads – tight game but did enough. 2-1 winners. to be honest was not a brilliant final with beautiful football. In fact it was a bit like a very large game of pinball. The wind and very bobbly pitch did not help. However a win is win and sometimes a team has to just … Continue reading
Goats 8 – Illogan 0
Quoting Matt again. Getting a bit of habit for me. A quick thank you to the trainee refs from around the county doing their training course course at Wendron who each spent 10 minutes on the pitch refereeing. “Comfy 8-0 win BLUES at home to Illogan on the main pitch. Started well with great passing … Continue reading

Here is Matt’s write up of two exciting matches . “Tense evening down at Hayle, playing two 50 minute matches. Thankfully winning the first game 1-0 … Continue reading
Goats 0 – St Austell 2
Some days the football just does not catch the imagination , and today we were flat. We never really imposed ourselves or dictated the play. And against a team like St Austell they needed no prompting to seize the chance and get in the driving seat. They took their chances when we did not. A … Continue reading

Just recovered after standing in the Wendron rain and wind . Too tired to write up the match so just pasting in Matt’s report. Well played Lucas. “Awesome comeback BLUES! Mevagissey could be our ‘bogie team’. Their pressing direct style scuppered our passing game on the muddy top pitch. But we battled from 2-1 down … Continue reading
County Cup Semi Final – Goats 12 – Falmouth United 0
Played on the astro at Penryn College, we were able to exploit the large pitch and good clean surface to play a wide expansive passing game. Falmouth challenged for the full match but were a few microseconds off the pace and over the full 80 minutes this difference told. Their effort could not be faulted. … Continue reading
