Arsenal gained 3 points in their third match of the season to avoid appearing in the relegation zone. There should be a steady climb up the table in the next few weeks but if West Ham had taken all their chances they could have beaten us easily. The final result of 3-1 to the gunners is a satisfactory start on the road to winning every week.
Brentford travelled all the way to Blackburn Rovers and came away with no points in a 1-0 defeat.
Southend United travelled across the country to Bristol Rovers and the journey was worth it as a 1-0 win was the result.
Exeter were up against their old manager Paul Tisdale who is now at MK Dons. The Dons won this match 1-0 scoring one of two penalties they were given.
Eastleigh gained a 2-1 win away from home. Their travels took them to Dover Athletic who scored their goal as a consolation.
Weston-super-Mare were at home to Oxford City and the visitors earned themselves a 1-1 draw. Weston are now bottom of the league and it looks like it may be another season trying to remain at this level.
Tiverton Town travelled to Harrow Borough and earned a 2-2 draw which keeps them at the top of the league. They are on the same number of points as Weymouth and Merthyr Town. Their goal difference in better than Merthyr but they are only above Weymouth by Alphabetical order.
Barnstaple are no longer in the F.A.Cup after losing 1-0 at home to Shaftesbury.
Buckland Athletic continue in the F.A.Cup as they beat Mangotsfield United 2-0.
Exmouth town crossed the border and came away with a victory. A 2-0 win at Callington Town has put them 5th in the table. Three wins and one defeat is a good start to the season.
As a bonus I checked up on my 11th pick playing in the South West Peninsula League Division One East. Elmore came from behind to beat St. Martins 2-1 at Horsden Park and ended a run of 22 games without defeat for the reigning champions.
That will do for reporting. I shall now try to find some video evidence.
