Results Round Up – Saturday 4th January 2020.
The 1st XI secured a credible and most welcome 3 – 0 Win at Merrow FC today, thanks to an instant 12 second goal from Chris Beard, which was followed by a Jimmy Graham brace.
The 2nd XI were ‘called off’ in debatable late form by their opposition, unfortunately we were informed very late of this avoidable postponement and consequently we offered the option of the match taking place at Poplar Road. Alas, to no prevail.
The 3rd XI went down 2 – 1 at Rosehill Athletic FC.Whitto notched the OR’s consolation in a game the lads could have won based on the chances they had – hey ho.
The 4th XI’s game was called off as unfortunately their Opposition have folded.
Best wishes to the Ruts Junior teams tomorrow.

Results Round Up – Saturday 7th December 2019.
The 1st XI secured a decent point in a 0 – 0 draw at Home to Worcester Park FC. Given the chronic availability and depletion of the squad this was particularly pleasing, with players stepping up from both the 2s, and also 2 debutants who stepped up from the 4s to make their first team debuts. With just the bare 11 for most of the game until Manager Nick Raggett was able to get to the game much later on.
The 2nd XI also secured a strong point at table toppers Wanderers FC. Joint Manager Jon Mapp reported ‘the 2s battled to a 1 – 1 draw with Wanderers. Following a nightmare morning that wouldn’t have been out of place at Halloween, the boys stepped up to the adversity and did the club proud’. Skipper Whitto with the goal and Keeper Sam Maclean the MOTM.
The 3rd XI went down 2 – 0 at Wilf Kroucher FC. The lads battled hard and had 4 over 40’s in the starting line-up, 2 of whom are closer to 50!
Owing to a communication breakdown the 4th XI match did not go ahead.
Well done to all teams, especially to the players that stepped up to higher teams.
Best wishes to the Junior Teams tomorrow
