Despite being in the Forest of Dean, Woolaston is much more accessible coming from the south, via the M4, then heading north through Chepstow. It is much easier than battling the traffic on the A40 if going via Oxford and Gloucester and with four of us in the car the £5.60 toll to get into Wales doesn’t feel too bad. According to a sign just before the toll booths, the charges will finally cease in December 2018 !

Tonights match was between two teams who had won their opening Division 2 matches at the weekend. It looked destined to be heading for penalties, but Woolaston finally made the breakthrough with a minute left to play. I can’t recall Bredon making the home ‘keeper make a save, whilst the home teams finishing was awful.
