What a committed and focused effort from Batch and the whole group. They had a target and stuck at it in adversity. Really looking forward to legends day now! #COYD

@AylesburyUtdFC Amazing effort. Well done to all involved

FULL TIME 10-1 to the ducks

@AylesburyUtdFC I think I’ve only seen this score once for the Ducks before

Bewley with a PEACH to make it TEN 10-1 76’

@AylesburyUtdFC Great point at a crucial stage of the season. Well done to all involved #COYD

FULL TIME 3-3

@MaldonTiptreeFC @officialmtyfc @MandTWomenFC @bailesliam @MandTAcademy Great to be at the match to see it. This is thoroughly deserved recognition for years of dedication

Congratulations to one of the kindest people in football! Liam Bailey the head of our Academy! For services to the community! Thank you for everything you do for the club! @officialmtyfc @MandTWomenFC @bailesliam @MandTAcademy

The Duck Walkers are in the ground. Remember you can still sponsor us and help support Youth Concern! givey.com/21cdsponsoredw…

Made it after a long walk! Please sponsor us if you can givey.com/21cdsponsoredw…

@21DucksTrust Get in! So happy we’ve done that on the skipper’s big night

Goal!! It's 2-2!!

Happy birthday Dad. 3 points for @NUFC today and @AylesburyUtdFC tomorrow is all he really wants!! #UTM #COYD

These are developments that concern me deeply. I’ve know Graham Read for a long time and I would be keen to hear him out if he would like to explain to supporters. It doesn’t look to be a course of action that puts the interests of our football club first

@AylesburyUtdFC Can I respectfully ask our Chairman Graham to explain the reasons for recent changes in ownership of our trademarks. Following previous experiences, we have always worked with a structure that one person should not be majority shareholder. Why has this changed?

When I talk about my love for @AylesburyUtdFC please remember is today, yesterday and tomorrow! Congratulations Jack and Charlie for winning the Alan Griffiths award. Proper history #PlayersOfTheYear #COYD

@TovideSamson Brilliant achievement Samson. Remember that first goal vividly when it nearly took the net off

Grateful 🩶

@noahchilvers10 Gutted for you Noah. But I know you’ll approach your rehab with the highest of standards that you always show and come back even stronger

🙏

@ChrisSmith521 Thanks for your reply Chris. Should have made it clear, the cheating accusation is against club ARs, when I Ref in parks. The fitness testing for the Refs at your games is quite extensive already, not sure why the Referee’s positioning was poor.

We have to have league provided officials. I’m not saying they are cheating at all. I don’t believe it’s malicious. My point is; the referee wasn’t near the incident. When I said it, I got booked, now I’m paying £15 for their mistake. Points again the club, probably a £300 club fine pending from the FA. I’ve provided how we can improve this for both parties. I’ve done seminars with London FA. Nothing seems to change. I want it better for us both. You get paid more, we get a better standard.

Just had an apology email from a referee for *probably* denying us 3 points with an obvious penalty. When we showed him to footage, he realised he got it wrong. They felt they had to “play it safe” and give a free kick outside the box, instead of a penalty 🤦‍♂️ What they don’t realise is the impact that has. Could cost titles, relegations, miss play offs etc. They don’t realise how much money we put in, how much hard work to be ruined by an obvious decision. I’ve provided how we can make this better for all. Nobody wants to listen. We just keep going in this viscous circle.

@ChrisSmith521 From my experience, clubs at the lower reaches of the steps know that having a neutral assistant is far preferable to having club assistants. I love refereeing but it’s a constant row about the perception of club ARs ‘cheating’

@ChrisSmith521 I run the line at step 6. I give it my best. We surely won’t find enough people with that level of fitness that won’t want to go higher? Fees cover things like kit+boots so Refs aren’t out of pocket. I go to work for a salary, I don’t do football for the money

@MartinPurslow57 It was Pat Smith that we remembered today Martin

@Lowey1897 Pat Brown?

@AylesburyUtdFC Pat was an essential part of the Ducks small backroom team and a very loyal clubman. I remember him as the physio when I started watching The Ducks. Meant a lot to be there when he was remembered today. Rest easy Pat #COYD
