Southall visited league
leaders Hartley
Wintney and came away with all three points with a 4-3 victory.
Steve Macenzie opened the scoring within two minutes and the
visitors dominated proceedings in the first half until Donal
O'Sullivan put through his own goal to level the scores. Andre
Robinson restored the lead for Southall just before half time.
Robinson added his second and Southall then began to sit back on
their two goal lead. The home side took full advantage of this and
added two goals to tie the score at three goals each.
With ten minutes to go Tony Macenzie scored the goal that proved
to be the winner.
Overall it was another good performance by Southall who are now
unbeaten in their last three league games.

The club is saddened to hear
that long time supporter Gordon Strange is now seriously ill
following a series of strokes.

Southall since the club was forced to leave Western Road.

the cry of "Anywhere"!
September 15th
Southall produced a
good performance when they visited Walton Casuals and won
3-0.
The visitors took the lead in the 18th minute with a goal from
Shane O'Sullivan and doubled their lead when Steve Macenzie headed
home in the 60th minute.
Southall were in control of the game and their goal was rarely
threatened by the home team. In the third minute of stoppage time
a superb individual goal by Andre Robinson completed a convincing
victory.
Southall Reserves opened their season in the Senior Division of
the Middlesex County League with a 4-0 defeat away to Ealing
Assyrians.
September 11th
An opening goal from Chris
Barrett and a first half hat trick from Steve Macenzie were good
enough to give Southall all three points in their home match
against Reading Town.
The visitors, managed by former England player Neil Webb, could
not match a strong first half performance from the home team but
did produce a better display in the second half to prevent
Southall adding to their goal tally.
