Valley Blow Out Cobwebs Against Cadbury

Valley played out a 3-3 draw with Midland Combination side Cadbury Athletic on the Butlin Road 3G astro facility as Martin Sockett kicked off his second spell in charge.

By RUGBYTOWNFC.COM.

The first warm-up game of the pre-season gave Martin the chance to piece togther his new-look squad ahead of the Zamaretto Division One Central season.

Sockett gave a run out to 21 players and took the lead early on through striker Gokan Ulker's effort.

Cadbury levelled midway through the first half with a tremendous long range effort which flew past goalkeeper Rob Webb.

The visitors then took the lead following up on another effort from distance which Webb had parried before Seb Hamilton powered his way through to equalise after the break.

Cadbury found themselves in front for the second time with a close range effort before substitute Paddy Connolly showed good composure to finish from inside the area to level things up once more.

Midfielder Ben Steane was missing from the game but it is hoped he will feature on Saturday when Valley host Massey Ferguson on the astroturf facility at 3pm - again supporters are free to come and watch.

The game was the first of four warm-up games on the astroturf facility with the first home game against Tamworth on Saturday 17th July.

Valley Line-up: Rob Webb, Ben, Chris Sockett, Chris Charles, Nik Preston, Kieran Fitzharris, Chad Sheppard, Mark Lowe, James Farrow, Seb Hamilton, Gokan Ulker. Subs: Mick Crawford, Danny Hall, Paddy Connolly, Craig Civilis, Matt Lee, Ben Atkins, Sam Birtwistle, Craig Thomas, Martin Crawford, Danny Edmunds.
