Trident Football Club - October Results

If you read our blog post last month, you'll remember that PKL sponsor local football team AFC Trident. We're very happy to announce that they remain unbeaten this season following another three wins this month!

First up this month, Trident faced Dursley Town 3rds at home in their fifth league game of the season. While the game was close-run in places, Trident finished with a 6-4 victory, in part thanks to a hat trick from Matt Hindley.

Trident then travelled to Randwick for the first round of the Charity Cup, on a windy Sunday morning. This is a competition Trident knows very well, having reached the final two years in succession. Randwick’s famous slope always makes it hard for the visiting team, and Trident had the added challenge of playing into the wind in the first half, with a score of 1-1 at half time. In the second half, Trident fought back to win by 5-1, following goals from Karl Robertson, Matt Hindely and two from Daniel Whisby.

In a repeat of the first league game of the season, Trident battled at home against Quedgeley Wanderers 3rds once again, this time in the second round of the County Cup. The first half was close, but Trident went into the lead following Craig Cooke's first goal of the season. Early into the second half Trident moved further ahead with goals from Liam Poole and Daniel Whisby, then sub Aiden Knight scored with his first touch after coming on. Trident had to work hard for their clean sheet, with Lee Burby making some great saves, and Trident progressed safely through to the third round with a 4-0 victory.
