Tough one at the weekend. The Trust members voted Damase Kiwanda as this week’s Man of the Match. The fans who voted said he looked lively and had some good moments up top. He’s still hunting that elusive goal, and it feels like it’s only a matter of time.

What a finish! A fantastic weekend saw the team claim a dominant 3-1 win against Penrhyncoch, highlighted by a superb strike. Jack Parry's second goal, that was captured on video! Now, all eyes are on the next fixture: the highly anticipated clash with Flint Mountain.
