With games coming thick and fast and the young blues undeafeated a great display was produced by the Blues against a well organised and run team. Mark Brennan started the ball rolling with the first of his six goals which earned him another man of the match award and he would have slotted a couple more had it not been for the outstanding keeper in the colts goal.

Further goals soon followed from Mike Hayden, Will Tane, George Jones and Canice Omahony as the Blues produced a 10-0 win. With two league games left the team has had a tremendous run and are looking forward to the remaining games starting this Thursday 8th May at Clifton Drive kick-off 18.15hrs and all a very welcome.

Cholmondley 0 Chester City 7
Chester started brightley and soon opened the scoring through Mark Brennan who capitalised on some sloppy marking and the blues were soon into their stride.

Further goals followed from George Jones and John Cheers as the blues killed of the game. In the second half with a terrential down pour making making it very difficult chester found the net again from Craig Stewert who then followed it up with his second soon after.

Sunday 9 March
Tattenhall 1 Chester City 5

In windy conditions the home side won the toss and elected to go with the wind in the first half and in an end to end game both centre half’s stood strong with very few open chances created.

After some great play from David McCully, Chris Newman scored his second goal in two games from a neat close range finish. Minutes later he added his second beating three defenders and slamming a low left foot drive into the bottom corner and and with minutes to go before half time the non stop running of Craig Stewart produced a third goal when he knocked the ball in from close range. With the wind behind them in the second half and five changes made the Blues were now playing some attractive football being denied on many occasions by the superb Tattenhall keeper and man of the match for Chester Mark Brennan instrumental in most attacks.

John Cheers soon found his form and knocked in number 4 after Tattenhall had pulled one back and Luke Edwards capped a brilliant performance with an unstoppable 30 yard free kick which rounded off another great game between two very well organised and run clubs.

Sunday 2 March 2003
Chester City 10 Saughall 0
From start to finish the Blues dominated this game being denied on countless occasions by Jack Carter in the Saughall goal who by far was man of the match. The Blues were caught on many occasions off side by a well organised defence marshaled by Lee Calvert but as early as the third minute Craig Stewart opened the scoring with a low driven shot. Goals soon followed from Canice Omahony and George Jones and in the second period with the home teams fitness showing goals from Mike Hayden and David Mcully made it 6-0. Chris Newman’s barren spell of goals ended with a well taken low drive and further goals from Stewart and Mcully made it 10-0 at the final whistle.
Sunday 9 February 2003
Chester City 7 AFC Waverton 0 - Duke of Westminster Cup quarter final
Again in windy conditions club captain Danny Boardman chose to go with the wind and within two minutes the Blues were in front with Craig Stewert too quick for his marker. Will Tane and Kennedy Tattler Ashes were in great form in midfield and goals two and three soon followed from George Jones and a delightful chip over the keeper from David McCully.

In the second period Waverton picked up the wind and forced Chester back and were unlucky on a number of occasions as the ball went wide of the post. With the Waverton keeper in tremendous form Chester could not turn all there possession into goals but with ten minutes to go Canice O’Mahony scored with a great volley from six yards. Chester made five substitutions as time ran out and a further three goals followed from Craig Stewert, David McCully and John Cheers to round off a fine team performance and a great game against two well run and organised clubs.

Sunday 26 January 2003
Chester City 1 Wrexham 0
Played at home against a very strong Wrexham team. the Blues started brightly with Luke Edwards and Will Tane getting the measure of their midfield opponents, but the Blues were lucky to survive without conceding in the first period due to some sloppy defending. in the second period Chester started strongly and dominated to be rewarded with a goal by centre forward Mark Brennan which turned the game, Craig Stewart and David McCully were a continual thorn in the side of the Wrexham defence, creating many opportunities in the third period. in the dying minutes Wrexham pressed for an equaliser, only to be denied by the post and Chester ran out worthy winners.
Sunday 19 January 2003
Chester City 5 Cholmondley 0
A fine home win against Cholmondley with a 20 yard screamer from Chris Newman to get them going followed by George Jones, Canice Omahony, Mike Hayden and Craig Stewert also leaves the under 13 unbeaten and top of the league with a game against Wrexham C of E next Sunday at home k.o 11.00hrs.
Sunday 8 December 2002 
Chester City 8 Westminster Park 0
The U13s also remain unbeaten a very strong team under the guidance of Phil Lloyd, Craig Whitehead and myself winning this week 8-0 against the large local club Westminster Park. Craig Stewert at right wing none stop runner and a great crosser of the ball, Luke Edwards at centre mid a real eye catcher in the mould of Paul Gascoine, Jack Delgado son of the excellent ex-chester player Bob Delgado in great form at left full, and the David Beckham of the team Chris Newman with his stunning left foot crosses into the box accounting for the numerous goals scored so far in this season.
