A Game In Four Quarters: Oh the irony
http://slusheasington-united.blogspot.com/2011/12/oh-irony.html
A Game In Four Quarters. A sporting life along The Humber Riviera. Thursday, 1 December 2011. On the same day that the strength of football in this area was being lauded on local radio, it was confirmed that one of the more progressive grassroots clubs had ceased to exist. Local football stinks at times. However, within a couple of hours there was a reminder to us all just how dangerously misplaced such views can appear, with the news that Hutton Cranswick United Football Club is no more. Their approach ...

A Game In Four Quarters. A sporting life along The Humber Riviera. Saturday, 10 April 2010. Saturday 3 April – Dronfield Town (away) Match postponed. Easington Utd Reserves 1 Sculcoates Amateurs Reserves 0. Easington Utd Casuals 3 Withernsea Thirds 1. Monday 5 April – Parkhouse FC (home) Won 2-0. Oh I Do Like To Be Beside The Seaside! Whilst obviously frustrated and disappointed by the enforced alteration to my plans, consolation was to be found in the County League football on offer at the Farm. Due to ...

A Game In Four Quarters. A sporting life along The Humber Riviera. Thursday, 2 September 2010. Hucknall high and Low Farm low. Saturday 28th August - AFC Hucknall (away) Won 3-1. Monday 30th August - Hutton Cranswick United (home) Lost 0-2. Tell me why I don't like Mondays! Saturday's trip to Watnall Road, home of AFC Hucknall (or Hucknall Town Reserves. Are we at the right ground? Given that I was accompanied by Mrs Slush whilst awaiting the arrival of the charabanc, perhaps, "Eh up, he'll be home by el...

A Game In Four Quarters: Switch on
http://slusheasington-united.blogspot.com/2013/02/switch-on.html
A Game In Four Quarters. A sporting life along The Humber Riviera. Saturday, 9 February 2013. Ceding home advantage in our protracted CML cup tie has not met with universal approval but needs must I'm afraid. Previous dreams have included cameo appearances by Ant and Dec, Will Young and Corrie corner shop owner Dev. I know, I know, it's a good job one of us remains wedded to the real world. You needn't laugh. What about that dream you had that. Was your new boss at work? As it happens, the game is actual...

A Game In Four Quarters: "It's rough, it's tough, it's Rugby League!"
http://slusheasington-united.blogspot.com/2010/01/its-rough-its-tough-its-rugby-league.html
A Game In Four Quarters. A sporting life along The Humber Riviera. Thursday, 21 January 2010. It's rough, it's tough, it's Rugby League! Sunday 17 January – Hull FC 28 Hull KR 16 (Richard Horne Testimonial). I’m a relatively late convert to rugby league. Having travelled with "all of Hull" to Wembley for the famous 1980 Challenge Cup Final, it was almost a decade later before I again took in the Oval Ball game. And The Best Trip We’ve Ever Been On. 8220;I think it was before the 1980 RL Challenge Cup Fin...

A Game In Four Quarters: August 2014 (Part 1)
http://slusheasington-united.blogspot.com/2014/09/august-2014-part-1.html
A Game In Four Quarters. A sporting life along The Humber Riviera. Thursday, 11 September 2014. August 2014 (Part 1). I don't mind seeing any player depart the club to better himself.But this triggered something of an exodus and I really struggle to see the thinking behind the decision of other players to leave. Throw in rumours of a couple of lads who are "not feeling football" at the moment and I start to despair about not only our fortunes but the future of local football in general.". Ss-poor therefo...

A Game In Four Quarters: November 2014
http://slusheasington-united.blogspot.com/2014/12/november-2014.html
A Game In Four Quarters. A sporting life along The Humber Riviera. Friday, 5 December 2014. Easington United 1 Newark Town 0. Was it round two or one? Even Richard Lane, the League Press Officer, appeared to get confused. According to the Full-Time site it was Round 2 and this win earned us a third successive home meeting with Belper United. Still, a win's a win and this could yet be the kick-start to a successful campaign. My official match report can be found here. With pictures on our Facebook page.

http://slusheasington-united.blogspot.com/2011/08/wrong-turn-white-outcome.html
A Game In Four Quarters. A sporting life along The Humber Riviera. Sunday, 21 August 2011. Wrong turn, white outcome. Easington United 3 DFS Welbeck Welfare 0. It was one of the most relaxing Saturday's I'd known. The programme had been printed the night before, Mrs Slush had taken the Elder Slushette off to town for the day and the Younger daughter was a master of the ability to amuse herself without much input from Dad. It was the calm before the, well, navigational storm if you like! Says the aforemen...

A Game In Four Quarters. A sporting life along The Humber Riviera. Tuesday, 5 January 2010. Saturday 2 January – Thorne Colliery (home) Match postponed. I think I might finally be getting a hang of this blogging lark, well, at least the technical aspects of it - it’s amazing what little delights I’ve found when pressing “Advanced Settings”! I’m certainly not claiming any sort of technical proficiency yet but if nothing else the end result might be a little more pleasing on the eye? Ast Saturday’s p...

A Game In Four Quarters. A sporting life along The Humber Riviera. Sunday, 15 March 2015. East-ending the year on a high. Saturday, 6th December. Easington United 3 Askern 6. Hutch's goals promised a grandstand finale but it was the visitors who added the final goal of the game in injury-time. Prior to kick-off, photographer Colin Brammer captured the two teams' photo for the #FootballRemembers initiative. My "official" report of the game can be read here. And Colin's pictures can be found here. I hate t...
