Results W/E 24th March 2024 Finally, some good weather at a weekend: The Firsts beat Camden Utd 2-1 at home. This was a great result for the Dragons who were reduced to 10 men for most of the match – their striker having been retired to the side lines for being naughtier than absolutely necessary. The Dragons…
Results W/E 17th March 2024 Yet again the “Wet from the West” frustrated many Dragons: The Firsts drew 1-1 at home to PFC Victoria. This was a decent result for the Dragons all things considered.

Still, spring cannot be far away. The Firsts lost to Pitshanger Dynamo away in the League. Pitshanger are title race contenders and the Dragons were up against it on a wet and…
A wet week saw many matches postponed: The Firsts had no scheduled game. The Blues drew 1-1 with Wisemen West away. The Dragons were not at their best which led to 90 minutes of ups and downs. Wiseman is a good team and took the initiative and the lead. The Dragons realised that they were trailing so pulled themselves together and improved to, not…
