Just one of those games
The Vets turned up to Charnwood College full of confidence after 10 goals and 1 conceded in 2 games. Entering through the gates, buildings with smashed windows and falling apart, this looked like the sort of place Mrs Trunchbull would be headteacher. After changing in the 1980s gymnasium we walked 1 mile to the pitch, with Lee taking the warm up and this time staying on his feet. The pitch was a surface we could play football on, flat and freshly cut. The game started at a fr

First-class performance
First away day. First-class performance. Seven goals. Clean sheet. 💪 Today’s fixture marked AFC Market Bosworth’s first game on the road, as the Bosie boys travelled to face Sporting Loughborough in blazing sunshine and perfect footballing conditions. With confidence sky-high, AFC came flying out of the blocks and wasted no time making their mark. Just five minutes in, today’s Player of the Match, Adie, reacted quicker than the Loughborough defence to toe-poke the ball home

Vets on fire in first half
The Vets arrived at Ravenstone, again with another squad of 16 going into our second game of the season. From our last game, Vish, Stu and Stephens dropped out with Sammon, “Honest” Neil and Nathan who all came into the squad. Love Island Lee led the warm up and was instructing the lads to get moving with intensity ready for the game before landing on the deck from an unfortunate slip much to the joy of the squad. No changes to the back four after a clean sheet last game and

Guess Who’s Back? Back Again…
The Vets travelled to Birstall to face Old Boys, an opposition we hadn’t played before. A strong squad of 16 welcomed new signings Jacko and Vish for their competitive debuts, while Stephens and Jack were also looking to get some valuable minutes after injury. We thought we had another new signing when an Eminem lookalike appeared, but it turned out to be Stu… not Stan! 🎤 The Vets started brightly and looked dangerous in the early stages, with Stu getting plenty of the ball.

Vets League Chaos in 30 Degree Heat
If Carlsberg did Sunday League away days, they definitely wouldn’t make this one. AFC Market Bosworth arrived at Borough Alliance on a red hot day where simply breathing felt like cardio. The changing room was roughly the size of a wheelie bin and somehow packed full of sweaty men before kick-off. The heat was unbearable, the smell was criminal, and before anyone had even laced their boots up properly, the acting manager nearly injured our very own Dermot O’Leary aka Jono by

Hutch and “The Four Seasons”
You’ve heard of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, this was all about Hutch and the Four Weather Seasons. The boys were instructed to arrive at 13:10pm to get the pitch set up and have plenty of time to warm up. On arrival, the boss aka Eddy and assistant manager Griffo parked up and were shocked to see the lads already hard at it setting up the pitch. A rare sight… and one that suggested the boys meant business today. However it wasn’t all plain sailing, Chinese Lee was

Willsy brushing up his skills
The Bosworth boys rolled up to the quarter-final with a slightly depleted squad, a few carrying knocks, and at least one carrying the effects of a questionable pre-match preparation. With the sun blazing (in March?! ), most of the lads got changed pitchside, soaking up some vitamin D and pretending it was all part of the warm-up routine. The gaffer made it clear the changing rooms weren’t needed… but, unsurprisingly, Lee and a couple of the lads ignored instructions and went

JIMBO A BRICK WALL IN DRAW
Weather: Baltic Pitch: Surprisingly playable Morale: Questionable Sobriety levels: Mixed The Bosworth boys arrived with genuine fears the match would be off due to the weather… only to be cruelly greeted by a perfectly playable pitch. Cue visible disappointment, mild shock, and several lads questioning their life choices. A few mutterings of “it’s freezing” echoed across the car park, but Griffo rallied the troops, corner flags went in, pitch got set up, and the inevitable b

BAD INTENTIONS AT ALANS WAY!
No bad tidings but Sporting Old Boys brought Bad Intentions to Alans Way, with the presence of the Elevation Wrestling Tag Team Champions. Regardless, the potential of a 3 count (points) meant the boys turned up buzzing with excitement, although the conditions were anything but friendly. Cold, damp, and wet summed it up nicely. The boss laid down the law early doors: play football and don’t get dragged into the nonsense, especially against an opposition known for loving a cru
