Bowburn Athletic FC 1 - Coxhoe United 3
The final match of the season saw Coxhoe play Bowburn Athletic for the second time in 5 days.United picked up where they left off on Tuesday with Reece Wayman opening the scoring when he collected the ball in the penalty area on 2 minutes then turned and shot with too much power for the keeper to get firm hands to it. United's second came from Jamie Appleby just before half time - a great shot from right wing whipped across the face of goal.The game was effectively put beyond Bowburn's reach in the opening moments of the second half when Alex McGrath broke free of the Athletic defence to slot it home past Bowburns keeper, making it 3. Bowburn didn't give up and clawed one back with 10 minutes left of the match with a looping a high ball, but Coxhoe battled on and were unfortunate not to score from any one of the several chances they had in the closing moments.

Coxhoe United 5 - Bowburn Athletic FC 0
With only 6 points to play for in the remainder of the season, this match was a 'must win' to consolidate Coxhoe's position in the First Division. Both teams hit the wood in the opening moments, but it was Coxhoe that scored first on 16 minutes through Curtis Bihari from a corner.There were further chances for United in the first half but the windy conditions prevented any more goals. Into the second half and a long distance shot from Cameron Holdsworth in the opening moments trickled through the Bowburn keepers legs. Cameron was on hand again shortly afterwards to pick up a loose ball on the edge of the penalty box and drive it home off the inside of the right hand post. A Holdsworth Hatrick was claimed with 15 minutes left to play after some hard work from Alex McGrath on the right wing crossing in for Cameron to strike goalwards. The fifth came 5 minutes later after Reece Wayman's cross beat the keeper and found Andrew Simpson unmarked on the goal line.

Chester Athletic Dragons 2 - Coxhoe United 3
A fantastic fightback from Coxhoe saw them turn a 2-0 half time deficit into a 2-3 victory, thanks to some fingertip saves from Lee Saiger in goal and a hat-trick from Andrew Simpson, the final goal being a headed corner on the stroke of full time.

Coxhoe United 6 - Chester Athletic Dragons 0
An important match approaching the end of the season, with Coxhoe needing to get back into winning ways to avoid slumping down the table. United started brightly with 3 good shots in as many minutes, but opened the scoring from a Cameron Holdsworth long distance shot on 7 minutes. Andrew Simpson doubled that tally on the 13 minute mark after a through-ball beat the Dragons defence leaving him to slot the ball past the keeper. A scramble on the Chester goal line on 20 minutes finally fell to Alex McGrath to put Coxhoe 3 up going into half time.The pressure continued into the 2nd half when James Gilson added to the scoreline from a tight angle with his left foot, then a slight change in Coxhoe's traditional formation put Stephen Wadge in centre midfield for the final 10 minutes where he promptly slotted 2 home to take the Coxhoe tally to 6 without reply.

Deerness Valley 3 - Coxhoe United 4
Todays match kept everyone on edge right to the end with a total of 7 goals, 4 of them in the space of 6 minutes. James Glison opened the scoring for Coxhoe on 8 minutes and Cameron Holdsworth added a second 8 minutes later. and although United had more opportunities the 2 goal advantage was all they had at half timeIn the 2nd half Deerness came out with spirit and had several good long distance shots but eventaully got off the mark after the ref waved away calls for off-side 8 minutes into the half. This opened the floodgates for another 2, meaning Deerness moved into the lead with 12 minutes left. Coxhoe retained their composure and up stepped Andrew Simpson almost immediately to grab the equaliser, then again to collect his second 2 minutes later and reclaim the lead. The last 8 minutes was a tense time but United managed to keep the ball in the Deerness half for much of the time to secure all 3 points.

Boldon Colts Panthers 2 - Coxhoe United 1
United made the perfect start in todays mid table clash when Henry Davies put in a first class cross from the left wing for James Gilson to open the scoring within 2 minutes. Bolton piled on the pressure and the united defence eventually cracked with a Panthers set piece on 20 minutes after the Referee thought he'd spotted a foul. United seemed to loose composure and Boldon grabbed the winner after an unfortionate deflection 15 minutes from time.

Coxhoe United 2 - Shotton Boys 1
Coxhoe continued their unbeaten run but things could have been different if Shotton had capitalised on chances in the 2nd half. Andrew Simpson tipped it past the Shotton keeper after 10 minutes to take the lead for Coxhoe and was unlucky not to double that tally a few minutes later when a pitch bobble took the ball from his foot as he was shooting in a 1 on 1 situation. In the 2nd half United seemed to loose their shape and concentration so Shotton siezed the opportunity, equalizing and putting Coxhoe under pressure for much of the half. A formation re-shuffle allowed Jamie Appleby some freedom up front and he duly obliged with the winner 10 minutes from time.

South Tyneside Jets 3 - Coxhoe United 4
Two goals from two shots in the first 10 minutes for the Jets highlighted that United had work to do with the disadvantage of having the wind in their faces. The whole team dug deep and created many chances, being unlucky to convert only 2 of them by half time from Alex McGrath and Andrew Simpson to go into the break level.Coxhoe continued the hard work into the second half but it was South Tyneside who broke through to go one up with 15 minutes left. The importance of these 3 points to continue the ascent up the league was forefront in United's mind and a high lob from Alex McGrath & a winner from Reece Wayman sealed those points for Coxhoe

Coxhoe United 5 - Hetton Juniors 0
From the kick off, Coxhoe pushed hard but it took 10 minutes for them to open the scoring when a Jamie Appleby shot came off the cross bar into the path of the advancing Andrew Simpson who tucked it away. Three minutes later, however, Jamie was on hand on the right wing again but this time he made sure he got his name on the score sheet with a great shot rounding the Hetton keeper. Coxhoe continued to attack and Henry Davies claimed Coxhoe's third from his left wing run with 1 minute left to play in the first half.Into the second, and United proved they were just as detemined to claim all 3 points and were unlucky on several occasions. Hetton produced some good attacking moves but the Coxhoe defence were equal to them. 2 more late goals for Coxhoe from Reece Wayman and Cameron Holdsworth showed that early season poor form has been left well behind.

Coxhoe United 2 - SAFC Foundation Panthers 4
Top-of-the-table Panthers showed their strength with powerful accurate shots from outside the box, putting them 3 goals up at half time and adding a 4th early in the 2nd. Some tremendous team play from Coxhoe clawed 2 back from Keiren Jowett and Jamie Appleby and United always looked like adding more but were beaten by the clock.

Fulwell FC 1 - Coxhoe United 2
United went to todays match full of confidence after last weeks victory, but wondering if they could continue the winning streak against 4th place Fulwell sitting 14 points above them in the league.Fulwell opened the scoring after 15 minutes when their striker ran onto a high ball lobbed over the heads of the Coxhoe defence. Good play from both teams produced more chances but neither team could add to the scoreline until a goal-mouth scramble in the early minutes of the 2nd half was eventually knocked over the line by Jamie Appleby to level the score.Coxhoe got stronger throughout the whole team as the match progressed and fought hard for the 2nd goal. This eventually came mid way through the 2nd half with another from Jamie Appleby after a run up the right wing and a fine strike to beat the Fulwell keeper.Resolute defending kept the Juniors at bay for the rest of the match to secure a well earned 3 points for Coxhoe.

Coxhoe United 7 - Durham City Soccerena 2
A recent drop in form had seen Coxhoe tumble down the table, with many playing out of their traditional positions to cover for team-mates with injuries and illness. Todays match saw another different formation face Durham, anxious to put more points on the board.From the kick-off Coxhoe pushed hard creating many chances, and goals from Rhys Wayman and Kieren Latcham saw them 2 up within 12 minutes. City fought back and managed to add themselves to the scoresheet, making for a tense end to the first half, but just before the whistle, Rhys bagged another resulting in a more comfortable half time team talk.More of the same in the second half with 2 goals from Andrew Simpson and 1 each from Jamie Appleby and Cameron Holdsworth with 1 in reply from Durham.

Coxhoe United 3 - South Tyneside Jets 3
After South Tyneside Juniors knocked the U12's out of the league cup last weekend, Coxhoe were determined not to fall to the same fate against another South Tyneside team, The Jets, this weekend. The scoring was opened by James Gilson within 2 minutes, but that advantage was wiped out 15 minutes later and the Jets went on to put some clear space between the two teams going up 3-1 shortly after. Coxhoe turned their game around and started to string some good football together, making the Jets keeper pull off some tremendous saves, but eventually forcing the Tyneside team into an error and claiming one back after a Cameron Holdsworth searching ball into the box.With only a few seconds to spare, a great run and shot from Andrew Simpson tied the game.

Shotton Boys 3 - Coxhoe United 4
After an indifferent start to the season, the Under 12's turned it around to collect 3 points this weekend away to Shotton Boys. A great performance from both teams saw Coxhoe strike first after 2 minutes then Shotton equalise 2 minutes later. More chances came for both sides and the half time score was 3-2 to Shotton. United kept their composure and became stronger as the match progressed. Even though they missed a penalty some brilliant passing throughout the team allowed more opportunities to come with a further two goals without reply sealing the victory.
