Full time score: Marine 1-0 Woking Full commentary and highlights with my commentary available below:

Marine pulled off another cup upset in the FA as they defeated Woking 1-0 at home.  A first half finish from Finlay Sinclair Smith was enough to see his Marine side head into the semi-finals of the FA Trophy.  It was a fast start to the game from both teams in the quarter final clash.  A chance in the first minute fell to Marine’s Sam Fielding who was unable to convert his strike on target.  Woking also looked dangerous in the early stages, Adam Anson was forced to make an im

Full time score: Kidderminster 4-0 Marine The full replay of the match with my commentary is available via Mixlr.

It was a disappointing night away to Kidderminster for The Mariners as the hosts put four past them.  From the first minute Harriers enjoyed lots of the ball and began to work Bobby Grant’s side in the early stages.  Kidderminster found the opener in the 19th minute thanks to a cool finish from Reece Devine who found himself in lots of space at the back of the 18 yard box.  After going ahead Harriers still looked dangerous, especially through counter attacks as they looked to

Full time score: Marine 1-1 Scarborough Commentary by myself and highlights available below:

The points were shared at the Marine Travel Arena between Marne and Scarborough in a lacklustre game of football.  A fine finish from Charlie Jolley was cancelled out thanks to an early strike in the second half from Stephen Walker.  There was a good pace to the game in the early stages but neither team were able to create any chances.  The best chance in the opening minutes fell to Scarborough’s Rio Allan who smacked the outside of the right hand side post after pinching the

Full time score: Marine 2-1 Chester Full commentary on the game by myself as well as highlights available below:

A late Lewis Bell goal saw Marine get all three points against Chester at the MTA.  The win moves Marine 9th in the Enterprise National League North, two points off the playoff places.  Whilst the first half had little chances in both boxes, there was plenty of fight and determination showcased by both teams.  After an even start, things got more complicated for Chester after Kevin Roberts was dismissed for kicking Marine’s goalkeeper Jack McIntyre in the face.  The best chan

Full time score: Marine 2-2 South Shields Commentary on the game and highlights are available below:

Marine and South Shields share the spoils after an eventful ending to the game in Merseyside.  The first half really struggled to get going with the visitors seeing lots of the ball in the opening stages.  Against the run of play, Marine’s Finlay Sinclair Smith thought he had found the opening goal only to see his strike smack against the left hand side post.  Just a minute later, Sonny Finch found the top left corner with what looked like a cross to give his side the lead af

Full time score: Marine 3-0 Radcliffe Commentary by myself on the game as well as highlights are available below:

Marine put Radcliffe to the sword as they claimed all three points after goals from Sam Fielding, Charlie Jolley and Josh Wardle.  Throughout the majority of the first half both teams struggled to create any chances leaving both keepers with little to do.  The best both teams could do was direct mediocre efforts wide of the target.  Despite this the half was full of action, especially concerning the referee, Richard Holmes, who went off injured in the 13th minute.  Fourth off

Full time score: Marine 1-1 Gloucester City (Marine win 4-3 on pens) Commentary on the game and highlights are available below:

A penalty shootout determined the outcome of Marine against Gloucester City with the home side coming out on top.  The first half was one of little chances for either side as both defences were unscathed in the early stages.  There was lots of intensity from both teams from minute one despite the fact that the goalkeepers weren’t called into action.  After a handful of half chances from both teams, it was the visitors who took the lead in the 27th minute.  For the first time

Full time score: Marine 4-2 Southport Full commentary and highlights by myself available below.

A clinical first half performance from Spennymoor Town ensured they claimed all three points against Marine with Rob Ramshaw grabbing both goals.  In the opening three minutes a quick break from the visitors saw them take the lead at The MTA.  A lovely weighted through ball from Junior Mondal found Ramshaw who managed to get a toe on the ball and into the Marine net.  Spennymoor continued to pose a threat going forward and they grabbed a second in the 26th minute.  Another th

Goals from Declan Drysdale and George Newell ensured Marine claimed all three points against Kidderminster Harriers on a freezing Tuesday evening.  It was a perfect start for The Mariners who managed to find an opening inside four minutes.  A delightful delivery from Finlay Sinclair Smith fell to Drysdale at the back post who made no mistake smashing home his first in a Marine shirt to give his side the lead.  The visitors look to strike back 10 minutes later after a slight m

Full time score: Marine 2-0 Kidderminster Commentary by myself available below.

Despite creating the better chances Bobby Grant's side couldn't find a breakthrough as they settled for a draw against Oxford. It was the home side who dominated the first half as they looked to continue their fine run of good form.  A first Marine chance saw Finlay Sinclair Smith find Jolley in the box superbly, the debutant couldn’t quite push the ball over the line with a flicked effort straight into the keeper’s hands.  The number 17 came close again after a nicely worked
