Played on Saturday 30th December 2006, kicking off at 3pm at Gigg Lane (Bury FC's ground).
Despite Newcastle Town taking a 12 minute lead with an excellent goal, FC United quickly came back to equalise with two minutes then struck home another three goals before half time to make the score 4 - 1.
The second half saw Newcastle Town defend a bit more boldly which saw FC United score only one goal in the second half making the fulltime score 5 -1.
It is not difficult to see why FC United have only lost two league games all season on this performance, winning every other match except one which they drew one all.
Stats to follow...

Vauxhall Motors Reserves 4 - 3 Upton Athletic Association
Vauxhall Motors Reserves 4 - 3 Upton Athletic Association
Unfortunately, within the first five minutes, the Vaxhall Motors Reserves goalkeeper landed awkwardly following a save and broke his arm. Play was dealyed for about 10 or so minutes until he was safely removed.

A substitue player then came on and took over the goalkeeping duties. He performed well.
I did not wear my HR monitor for today's match, so do not have any stats.

Mad Dog Owners and Confused Squirrals
4.45km Park Loop in 21:12.
Whilst running along the Oak Walkway, only 700 metres into my run, I saw two dog owners walking their dogs. The dog owner heading towards me had stopped, put his labrador on lead, and placed his dog on the opposite (grass) side to him. This was in response to a boxer dog bounding towards them.
The mad owner with the mad boxer dog simply did not respond and casually continued to walk towards them with her dog bounding in all directions.
When the two owners were level with each other, the boxer dog bit into the labrador's backside and the owner of the labrador had to yank his dog away. The owner of the boxer dog did not appear to apologise and simply pulled her boxer away before releasing it once again.
At this point, I was almost level with this stupid mut, so I took a wide birth onto the muddy and wet grass but continued to run. I passed the mad dog. The mad dog then gave chase after me whilst barking in my direction and at me. When it came right up to me I was forced to stop running for my own personal safety!
The mad dog owner simply called its mad dog and did not apologise to me either. The dog bounded back once again. I continued to run but not at full pace just in case the mad dog thought it should have another go. I turned and looked at the mad owner and said, "Please keep you dog under control! Keep it under control!". She just looked at me as though I had spoken in a foreign language.
When running down the Pewterspear Garden Path, which was extremely wet, slippery, and muddy, a squirral ran directly out of the undergrowth then saw me. Startled, it just stopped directly ahead of me. I had to slow down, otherwise there was a serious risk that I would tread on the little creature. Confused and scared, the squirral ran to my right, just as my slower paced right foot hit the ground, he then changed his mind and darted in front of me to the left, just as my left foot went down. I had to stop, otherwise this squirral was not going to see Christmas.
The squirral just froze. Realised I had also stopped. Panicked. Then shot left into the undergrowth, behind a tree, before scaling it.
I set off once again, following my second forced stop in my short run.

A trot with my running buddy John

4.45km Park Loop with John
I met up with John for our once four-weekly run together. Spookly enough, we ran the distance in exactly the same time as my same run on Tuesday. Although, my HRavg and Kcals burned have fallen - that is encoraging.

More time on feet...
6.10km Park and Dingle Loop in 29:39
I decided to run a slightly longer route but at a slower pace which is apparrently a good way of getting back your fitness level once again. I have to admit that I felt the additonal distance.
Also, despite running much slower, my HRavg and HRmax were at a level usually meaning that I had put a lot of effort in and ran really well. This was not the case.
More work required, but unfortunately, Christmas is about to get in the way!

Back in the saddle
It's been three weeks since my last run and funnily enough, I've lost some fitness.
I ran the ye olde favourite Park Loop that is 4.45km in length. I ran at a reasonable pace, but you can certainly tell by my HRavg, HRmax, and kcals that I had to work really hard for something that is usually quite easy.
At the 800 metre mark, I jarred my foot that gave me a knee pain for 50 or so metres until that passed, then I lost my footing twice running down the Pewterspear Garden Path when I accidently trod on a fallen branch. After all that, I almost slipped over on some mud at the entrance to the King Street Old Roman Road. Just about managed to stay on my feet!
Still, I'm back and will be doing my best to attain my usual fitness level once again.
