League

DC continued from where they left off the previous week with a convincing win against Valley Park. Jensen Langford opened the scoring before Paul Kulpa scored his first for the club with a long range up an under effort. Stephen Barker scored his second goal in two games making it 3-1 straight from the restart of the second half before Andy Fookes' cross shot found its way into the top corner

Berks and Bucks Rnd 2

The second round of the Berks and Bucks Cup pitted DC against Bayer from the Newbury league. The home side received a suprise as the Newbury side took the game to DC in the sticky conditions. After surviving an early onslaught and taking their time to settle into the game, DC started to create space and chances. Tom Entract was causing trouble down the right and it was his shot that led to DC's opener. His shot was palmed out by the keeper but only to the feet of Chris Taylor who passed the ball into the open net from a couple of yards. Tom then scored his first for the club with an identical shot to his first although the keeper could not reach it. The turning point in the game came as Craig was concussed in a collision which led to Bayers first goal. Neil replaced Craig in the net and was unable to prevent Bayer scoring a second goal. Scaldie had put Steamers 3-1 up by this time after Steve Bell slotted a delightful pass through the defence to find Scaldie at the back post. Bayer applied a lot of pressure in the last 10 minutes of the game and nearly got the equaliser late on.
