SportsTALK

The SportsTALK team return to action with reporter Dan Darlington taking the hotseat in hosting this week’s podcast. Joined by reporter Josh, the duo analyse a weekend of sporting action. On Saturday, Josh saw Maidenhead United fall to a fourth defeat in a row after a narrow loss to Boreham Wood. Had the Magpies taken their chances, they might have come away with a result. Josh spoke to loan signing Ody Alfa to hear his thoughts on the game. Just the short journey away, Dan witnessed Maidenhead RFC batter league leaders Barnstaple at Braywick Park. Maids have made a habit of being a giant killer this season and Saturday was no exception. Dan caught up with David Mobbs-Smith to hear how the result will impact their chances of a play off place. This week’s podcast rounds up the rest of the local sport and teams including the hockey, rugby, and football.

The SportsTALK team are a man down this week as reporter Dan Darlington is currently sidelined with paternity duties. Dave and Josh are of full fitness however and offer a unique look into the weekend’s sporting action including the hockey, rugby and football. The duo paid York Road a visit on Saturday to see Maidenhead United succumb to a narrow loss against relegation rivals Aldershot Town. Josh caught up with Magpies midfielder Ryan Upward after the game to hear his thoughts on what went wrong and what they need to rectify in time for Tuesday’s clash against Ebbsfleet United. Elsewhere, Slough Town were held to a 1-1 stalemate with Chelmsford City keeping the side firmly entrenched in third place of the National League South. In the South Central Division, Marlow maintained an impressive unbeaten run in the league with victory against South Park. Whilst over at the Gore, Burnham fell to a fourth straight league defeat to Hellenic Premier Division leaders Westfields. This week's podcast concludes with a round up of the local rugby and hockey, including David Mobbs-Smith's Maidenhead RFC, and Chris Brown's Men's 1sts.

Back from a week off, the SportsTALK team are here to round up the few games that survived Storm Dennis. Josh visited Arbour Park on Saturday to see Slough Town host Havant and Waterlooville in the National League South. In adverse weather conditions he spoke to joint boss Jon Underwood after the game to hear his thoughts of the result. Postponements elsewhere included Maidenhead United’s clash against AFC Fylde and Maidenhead RFC’s match against Okehampton. Hear what Dan and Dave had to say on the sides and their aims for the end of the season. This week’s podcast concludes with a discussion of Maidenhead Hockey Club’s Men’s first team and their result from the weekend against Surbiton.

The SportsTALK team discuss the flashpoints from all the weekend’s sport. This week’s podcast kicks off with an analysis on Marlow’s clash against Westfield in the Isthmian South Central Division. The Blues picked up a valuable three points over Westfield but the match wasn’t as straight forward as it seems. Dan spoke to boss Mark Bartley after the game to hear his thoughts on two red cards and some questionable refereeing decisions. Elsewhere, Josh made his first journey over to Arbour Park where Slough Town suffered a surprise defeat at home to Oxford City after Ryan Bird gifted the visitors a fortunate victory. Josh caught up with one half of the Rebels management team, Jon Underwood, to see what he had to say from the defeat. The team also discuss Maidenhead’s profitable journey to Solihull Moors and analyse the hockey and rugby results of our local area.

The SportsTALK team are back to round-up a mostly positive weekend of sport in our local area. On Saturday, Maidenhead United claimed a vital win over Eastleigh to boost their bid to maintain their National League status. But United couldn’t have done it without star striker Danny Whitehall. Josh caught up with the forward after the game on his performance and what the result means for the Magpies. Slough Town continued their march in the National League South with a 1-0 win over Braintree. Warren Harris’ first half finish left the Rebels 3rd in the table. Dan reflects on their fight for promotion and impressive form. There was no rugby this weekend for our sides in the South West Premier and South West 1 East, but there was action elsewhere with Slough and Drifters. Hear how they got on and what the result means for them in their league. This week’s podcast concludes with a short hockey round up on both the Maidenhead Men’s 1sts and Maidenhead Women’s results.
