Stanley Heames Cup (05/09/10)
PUSFC MOT: Lawrence Price

PUSFC headed over to compete in the Stanley Heames Cup which was being held in Coventry to raise funds for Cancer Research UK. With a squad of just eleven players on the day we were perhaps expecting the worst, but having started with a 1-1 draw against Nott County we then went from strength-to-strength beating Bury 1-0 and Burnley 5-1 in the group stages. Burton were next up in the semi-final and we put on another great performance to emerge with a 3-0 victory, setting up a final against a very useful looking Leyton Orient side. The miracle wasn't quite to be though as we lost 1-0 to a hotly disputed first-half goal. The ball was clearly out of play in the build-up, but the Orient player knocked it back in and then ran on to score. We were gutted - well over two hours of football and we'd finally been beaten by a goal that never should have been allowed. To be fair to Orient they were clearly the better side and Brendo had a blinder keeping it to one, but without that goal we'd have forced them to pens and who knows what would have happened then.

PUSFC 6-1 Cambridge (21/08/10)
PUSFC MOM: Tom Killingsworth

Huge thanks to Richard for bringing his lads over to us for the first game of the season. As always this was a great game, played out in the perfect IFA spirit. Tom Killingsworth bagged himself a hat-trick with Leigh Porter, Stephen White, and Jon Connor picking up the other Posh goals. We look foward to returning the fixture later on in the campaign, and with them all the best for the rest of the season!

WorldNET 2009 (24/07/10)
PUSFC MOT: Brendan Taylor

PUSFC returned to Leeds to compete in WorldNET for the fourth time, and once again enjoyed a fantastic weekend of football. We started slowly with a 0-1 defeat to Dumbarton, but soon recovered with a 4-0 win over Kidderminster, and a hard-fought 0-0 draw with Dunfermline. Inbetween, we managed a 2-1 friendly win over AFC Wimbledon, and a 0-4 friendly defeat to Hull. Safely through to the cup knockout stages, we then progressed beating Exeter 1-0, then Crewe Alexandra 1-0, before finally slipping out 0-1 to Gillingham in the quarter finals. That kind of officially puts us in the top 16 in the world, so not a bad weekend all in and we'll be back for WorldNET 2011!

Activity Round-Up (23/05/10)
Cambridge, Histon, Leicester, West Ham, Bill Harvey, Free Kicks

One big round-up for a load of games that got lost in the sea of time at the back end of the season. There are quite a few actually, so I'm just going to list 'em: We lost 1-2 to Cambridge (doh), we drew 3-3 (again) with Histon, we beat Leicester 6-1, and we lost 1-4 to West Ham. We also successfully defended our title at the Bill Harvey Memorial Tournament played on London Road, and gained revenge on the Free Kicks boys with a 13-1 win in our annual charity clash.

Watford 1-1 PUSFC (13/03/2010)
PUSFC MOM: Stephen White

Cheers to Matt and his lads for the game on Saturday morning - a pretty close match with a draw perhaps the right result at the end of the day (though it could easily have been 2-2 with both sides missing easy chances within a minute of each other). We had the better of the first half and took the lead via a deflected Ash Garford effort, they had the better of the second. We had 11 men, they had well over 20 and changed virtually the entire team during the break - massive kudos to them for having enough interested lads to be able to do that! Given the afternoon result, this could even be a fixture we can repeat next season as well. I'd like that - a good bunch of lads.

PUSFC 6-4 Ryhall Utd (06/03/2010)
PUSFC MOM: Ashley Garford

PUSFC finally returned to action after an enforced winter break with a friendly against local side Ryhall Utd. Things didn't start well and we were 0-1 down early on, but we soon found our rhythm and thanks to Ash Garford (2), Nick 'Mr Gay UK' Jackson (2), Josh Smith, and Rob Birley we eventually ran out 6-4 winners. Back in league action next week against Watford.
