The less said about Round 11 the better! Our only victory came courtesy of a forfeit!!! At least we had the chance to drown our sorrows at Sidelines afterwards!!! The 3 Lions result last night made things slightly easier for the English contingent!!! Read more
Round 10 saw the Mick McMahon goal machine (17 for the season) continue his scoring streak but just as impressively Andrew Hayes doubled his total for the season to climb to the top of the 45CS top scorer’s table! Read more
Round 9 has been and gone. A little wet and windy but still nice to get out on the paddock with a bunch of mates and enjoy an illegal beer or two afterwards… Just 3 wins this week but I’m sure you all still had fun! Read more
Round 8 brought us 5 wins and just 2 losses – the best set of results for the club so far this season and the first 3 points of the season for O45B2, who convincingly beat Ourimbah at Fortress Duffy’s. Unfortunately, all of this positivity has been marred by a disaster this morning in Kiev – if any Barnstoneworth goalkeepers are available to backup for Liverpool next season please urgently send me your details and I’ll forward them on to Jurgen Klopp!

Game week 7 results were slightly less favourable apart from big wins for 35A and the 45B1 Juggernaut – I think you boys need to donate some of your goals to our other teams!!! Mick McMahon has even outscored most of our teams – sorry to mention that!!! 😉 Read more
This year’s Over 45 Men of Football competition winners are… Barnstoneworth United Over 45’s!
Well done chaps. A great day (though a bit warm) was had by all for what is a great cause. For more information on Men of Football Central Coast, click here.
As the final game of the season for Barnstoneworth, there wasn’t a great deal of concern over this game, especially as Umina beat us 5-0 last time. For Umina though, the opposite was true, as Barnstoneworth’s 2-0 defeat of Avoca the week before had put Umina into the finals, meaning a victory today would make them minor premiers. Read more
Welcome back gentle reader. Since the last report we’ve actually played three games, the first two of which, sad to relate, passed largely unregarded by history until now. The thrilling third match is reported below for your considered delectation. As for the first two, the first was a sad 3-0 loss against Ourimbah which broke our winning streak but not Tom’s 100% record (he wasn’t there) Read more
A beautiful sunny day saw Barnstoneworth run out against East Gosford on a pitch that was hard, uneven and mostly dirt in front of the goals. With a strong breeze blowing against them and the sun in their eyes, Barnstoneworth had a storming first half, with the Lynch brothers and Pez getting ample opportunities to shoot for goal, to no effect.

Fronting up with half your team missing is never a good place to start, but Brett Fenton had done a sterling job recruiting some players from D-Grade North for this catch-up game, so we ran on to Paddy Clifton Oval with eleven players, with one sub expected to turn up eventually. After a delay finding a match ball, the game started, with no less than two linesmen and an audience from passing trains. Read more
