West Vets secure huge pre-season win – West Didsbury & Chorlton AFC

West Vets secure huge pre-season win

West’s Vets played their third pre-season game in eight days, securing an impressive 5-1 victory over Cheshire League new boys and local rivals St. Johns.

With the Manchester summer weather reverting to type the game kicked off amidst a back drop of rain and wind, but it didn’t take long for West to find their rhythm with new boy Andy D’Larine finishing well.

St. Johns equalised soon after but excellent finishing from Alex Tang, Carl ‘With a C’ and a second from D’Larine had West 4-1 up at the break.

A fine finish from Stu Kelly was West’s only goal of a slightly one sided second half, despite some missed gilt edged chances to further increase the score line.

West also welcomed debutant Mark Bedford to the squad, one of our under nine coaches, with an impressive display at centre half.
