Guernsey FC begin league campaign with 4-1 Wick win
Guernsey FC began their first season in the Southern Combination Premier Division with a 4-1 win over Wick at Victoria Park. The Green Lions were playing in the ninth tier of English football for the first time in 12 years after their relegation from the Isthmian League in April. The win came in the week Guernsey were expelled from the FA Cup after fielding an ineligible player in their 1-1 draw with Bedfont Sports last week. Ross Allen and Brandon Wallace both went close early on before Tom Vaudin gave Guernsey a 30th minute lead. The defender got his first goal for the club on his 100th appearance as he reacted quickest at a corner. It took just four minutes for the islanders to double their lead as Fin du Port turned in a free-kick. Allen hit the crossbar 13 minutes after the break with a shot on the turn, but Wick pulled a goal back four minutes later as Dave Crouch finished well. Sam Murray missed a couple of good chances soon after, before going close with an 84th-minute header. The striker finally got the goal his endeavour deserved three minutes later when he finished well into the bottom corner. The win was completed in the first minute of stoppage time when Allen converted from the penalty spot after Will Fazakerley was tripped in the box. Guernsey FC expelled from FA Cup after admin error Guernsey FC force FA Cup replay after Bedfont Sports draw "It's about the result really and it's good to get the win," Guernsey FC manager Tony Vance told BBC Radio Guernsey. "We found ourselves in an unusual situation where obviously we had a lot of the ball and a lot of the ascendancy. "But then what happened was it was almost like we lost our focus because we didn't quite have the right mentality to go and be ruthless after six or seven years of being on the other side of things and trying to stop every attack. "Here we had a chance to go and create and and I think I think we found ourselves in that position where we're not used to it. "But it was a question of getting that first goal and then the second of course, and then maybe from that we we can build something and once we got that I thought we'd played some good football and created some good openings, but we weren't quite ruthless enough."
