Wollaton Pirates faced Division 1 side Fox & Crown in the 1/4 Final of the County Cup, a competition in which they were losing finalists last season.  The fixture had some excitement surrounding it as not only would the Pirates face Fox & Crown in the County Cup but we will also face them in the Empal Cup, add to this the fact that they beat us on penalties in the Empal Cup last season and it became clear that this would be a great game!

Wollaton Pirates travelled to Bilsthorpe to play against Mansfield based side Innovate FC in the 3rd round of the County Cup.  Playing on an immaculate playing surface the Pirates soon found their swashbuckling swagger dominating early proceedings with some crisp passing football that even Arsene Wenger would have been proud of.

The game started very well for Elwes Arms as they raced in a 3 goal lead within 15 minutes of the tie. The first goal came from a weak attempt at goal which went through Pirates Keeper Matt Hoylands legs leading his fellow team mates to think he was still drunk from the night before. It was not long before Elwes got a second with a ball put between the Piratres centre halfs and the pace of the Elwes Arms striker allowed him to get past them and slot the ball nicely home. Elwes continued to pile on the pressure and were awarded with a third goal which came from a corner which was only half cleared landing to a man on the edge of the box who rifled the ball home from 20 yards.
