The U15 Eagles lost 2-5 to top of division Hayes and Yeading. As the Dragons Manager mused: “Well, at half time we were playing like champions. 2-2 yes, but only thanks to their lucky strike and soft penalty – for this top-of-the-division outfit had been chasing the game from the off. Unable to cope with…
Kensington Dragons U15 Eagles 10 v 3 Willesden Constantine St Gregory’s 3 v 3 Kensington Dragons U15 Eagles It was a weekend of putting things right – and but for the accumulation of a couple more unwanted wrongs, we pretty much got there. Under-manned against both teams earlier this season, we had also under-performed. And…
West Drayton 2 v 1 Kensington Dragons U15B With the team once more diminished by three late no-shows the talk on the bus was of the film “300” in which an indomitable band of plucky Spartans holds off the massed hoards of invading Persians, some two and half thousand years ago. But who knows how…
Willesden Constantine 5 v 1 Kensington Dragons U15B The floods of February may have floored us, but the rising tides of March had seen our rocky spirits lift. A second place finish now seemed once more within our grasp. Until this Sunday, of course. Already shorn of players, including our leading striker, we lost another…

Kensington Dragons U15B 3 v 1 Forest Utd After the broken arms and broken hearts could we break our recent run of luckless, morbid form? With a thumping away win against our opponents back in the golden days of Autumn, we certainly hoped so. Until two late no-shows saw us down to a far from comforting…
Kensington Dragons U15B 2 v 4 St Gregory’s So the rain came down and the goals dried up. Would this be the way we’d recall our season? At 0-4 down in the second half, the home support supposed so. Where were the Titans who bestrode the pitches of west London with verve and fire before…
Hanwell Town 3 v 2 Kensington Dragons U15B League Cup Quarter Final. Well, it was March and we were still in the cup. That we can only put this down to the weather, however, is now something of a sore point. This was a match we could have, should have, and but for three non-footballing…
