Shire FC victory - but we want more!

What better way to spend the first really springlike afternoon of the year than watching Shirehampton Football Club romp home 3-1 against the Stockwood Cutters? After the match, we all went back to the clubhouse to celebrate. The clubhouse is another one of those testaments to what a group of volunteers with ambition can achieve - it was built mainly by members of the club and is a superb facility, with a big screen for watching Premiership action after the match.

But Shire FC have ambitions for more. They want to raise around £120,000 to upgrade the facilities at their pitch so that they are able to compete in the Western League. It's a tall order, but watch this space.
