HAMSTERS
DEFEAT MIEROSOFT - 01/04/08 |
| The
Hamsters secured their first home victory of the
season tonight, as they defeated Mierosoft 5-4
in a thrilling encounter at the Cage. Playing
their traditional passing game with patient
build up, the Hamsters soared into a 2-0 lead
thanks to Sam Franks, opening his account on his
home debut, and Kevin Ticehurst. Mierosoft were
soon back in it at 2-2, but a further two goals
from Ticehurst, to wrap up his hat-trick, and a
Peter Chapman header were enough to give
Mac Industries the three points. Report and post
game interviews now on-line |

DIAMONDS
CRUSHED BY RAMPANT YELLOWS - 27/12/07 |
| A
record victory margin just eluded the Hamsters,
as they came away from the Hippo Arena with a
24-4 win - their first of the season - on a
muddy day in Lindfield. James Calver set a
Hamsters record, scoring just 12 seconds after
the kick off. Despite the good start, the
Diamonds went onto lead 2-1 before conceding a
further 11 goals before half time. The winning
record margin of 20 goals would have been
broken, had assistant manager Doug Lane not
decided to offer the home side an assist from a
throw-in, and score an own goal after
unexpectedly switching teams. The scorers were:
Calver(9), Robert Jones(6), Jack Simspon(2),
Lane(3), Lloyd(2), McCarthy(2). Full report,
pictures and interviews now on-line |

HAMSTERS
IN NOBLE DEFEAT - 10/09/07 |
| The
Hamsters suffered back-to-back defeats for the
first time in their history, but the 4-2 defeat
at Hove Lawns was far from the massacre many
predicted before the game. Playing against a
side that plays week-in, week-out, the Hamsters
trailed 2-1 at the break, courtesy of an Alex
Ternouth header. The superior fitness of the
home side soon told though, and a Jack Simpson
penalty ensured it ended 4-2, although the
yellow army will feel they might have deserved
something from the game. Full report and
interviews now on-line |

TOUGH

| This
Sunday, Scott McCarthy leads his Hamsters side
into what will be arguably their biggest test to
date, as they take on Sussex Sunday League side
Hove Lawns at The Waterhall Arena. The clash
sees first team debuts for new signing from
Barca Babes Sam Franks, and youth team product
Marcus Wickwar. Alex Ternouth makes his return
to the club a year after being released, while a
heroes reception is expected for returning Jamie
