Grays(h) Grays got a fourth from a move similar to their first goal on 85 minutes when a cross into the area saw Delve unable to claim the ball under pressure and the loose ball was turned in. Grays went close on 32 minutes when they flooded the County area with players looking for the cross from the right but the ball was cut square across the face of the area and a first time shot went narrowly past the right upright. Grays played a more direct approach than anticipated but with the pace and presence that their front two offered they always had enough to worry County who were slow to react on times all over the pitch. homepage.ntlworld.com /mark.vickery007/ncafc/grays_home.htm   (1232 words)

Grays(a) Grays had a forceful spell in the final ten minutes and went close on 80 minutes when they worked the ball to the right side of the area and a player had time for a shot from 16 yards but the ball was blasted over the bar. Grays continued to press and a stroke of fortune on 35 minutes when the ball was worked down the right channel and a deflection off Scott Morgan gave a player time for a shot on the right side of area but he dragged his cross come shot across the goal.

4 June 2004 - Wilmer Fields Passes Away The Grays were one of the finest teams in the Negro League, winning nine league championships before folding in the wake of desegregated professional baseball. Having left his athletic career with few regrets, he found that the association reinvigorated his early passion for the sport as he fought for money for aging ballplayers from the segregated era. He was the Grays' ace on their final championship team in 1948, going 7-1 in league games and winning his only decision in that fall's Negro League World Series. www.nlbpa.com /4june2004.html   (1700 words)

AFC Hornchurch - Official Site - 2004/05 Conference South - Welling United Grays started strongly and took the lead after 11 minutes when Steve West blasted the ball into the roof of the net after we were slow to clear a ball on the 18 yard line. Ten minutes later Grays scored the winning goal and it was Vill Powell who got clear after being put through by Griffiths, shooting confidently past Baruwa from the edge of the penalty area. Slowly we began to trouble the Grays defence and on 24 minutes Ashley Bayes struggled to hold on to a low 20 yard free kick from Danny Shipp with Jean-Michel Sigere looming. www.urchins.org.uk /2004/reports/33.shtml   (559 words)

TheFA.com - Grays lift FA Trophy Martin Kerr stroked in for 6-5 and then Russell Cooke, outstanding down the right for Hucknall for much of the match, hit his strike too close to the Grays keeper who beat the ball athletically away. If Grays had more chances, Hucknall had their share and they might have clinched a famous win once at the end of normal time and again in the dying seconds of extra time. Grays at last went ahead when for once the Hucknall defence got in a tangle under pressure from Oli and the ball fell to the on-rushing Martin who slotted gleefully home. www.thefa.com /TheFACup/TheFATrophy/NewsAndFeatures/Postings/2005/05/TheFATrophy_MatchReport.htm   (1062 words)

Reading FC vs Grays - 18 November 2000 Despite Grays getting to the ball quickly it was clear they were going to be spending most of the game chasing the ball, and the Reading player with the ball, around the park, and defeat seemed inevitable for the Essex side. Grays rarely broke out of their half, and when they did Whitehead only touched the ball from a back pass or for a goal kick. Grays always got the better of the goalmouth scrambles with a defender always prepared to launch themselves in the way of a shot on target. www.royals.org /matdoc/181100.html   (2642 words)

Canvey Island v Grays Athletic (25/08/98) Brookes, the Grays keeper, seemed to be rooted to the spot and even at full stretch, he couldn't stop the ball going into the back of the net.

After Liddle was taken off, half-way through the second half, Andy Jones came on and, just like last Saturday's match, he introduced a fair degree of pace up front. www.canveyfc.com /1998/reports/2.htm   (323 words)
