August 27th
Southall lost their  home Bank Holiday Monday match against AFC Wallingford by four goals to one.
After  a goalless first half  in which neither side showed superiority Southall took the upper hand and took the lead through a well worked move which was expertly finished by Andre Robinson. Although the visitors equalised within five minutes it was Southall who looked the more likely to score again.
Then followed a shambolic last fifteen minutes which saw team spirit disintegrate, another  total lack of discipline from Shane O'Sullivan which  saw him dismissed from the field and Wallingford score three more goals to end the match as easy winners.
A performance like this in the F.A. Cup against Uxbridge will certainly result in a heavy defeat and an early exit from the competition.

The web master has recently been contacted by Danny Adams whose great great uncle Harry Young was a member of the 1926-1927 Athenian League Championship side.
Danny included photographs of the trophy that was awarded to Harry and these can be viewed here. Please note that these may take a while to download.
Unfortunately we have been unable to assist Danny in providing any more information about Harry or even providing a photograph of that great side.
If anybody has any old photographs of Southall teams, players in action, views of Western Road,  matchday programmes or any other Southall memorabilia then please contact the web master.
