First Round action does not disappoint

By David Simpson

GOALS GALORE !!

What a competition the Bigfreebet.com Challenge Cup is shaping up to be! Goals and hat-tricks have been flying in left, right and centre.

Including the preliminary round between Northwood and Egham Town, we make it 125 goals so far, with the matches Between Redditch United and Bishops Cleeve and Shortwood United and Merthyr Town delivering 19 goals alone!

The ever-growing list of Hat-trick heroes now include Callum Bunting of Basingstoke Town and Charlie Gunson of AFC Totton.

They join Lewis Wilson of Cambridge City, Elliot Bailey of Hitchin Town, Jake Newman of Kempston Rovers and Ryan Debattista of Egham Town.

For us, the game is all about goals and we are delighted to see so many goals being banged in.

It’s fair to say there are certainly no dull matches in the Bigfreebet.com Challenge Cup - a competition that is very quickly gaining a reputation for non-stop action and shocking upsets.

We can’t wait to see what the matches between Farnborough and Hartley Witney and Kidlington and Swindon Supermarine deliver tonight. Both matches kick off at 7:45pm.

All the best to those teams competing.
