Watton Reserves were a little unlucky to come away pointless from a tight game against Mundford. Two goals down, Watton fought back valiantly.
Despite hitting the woodwork twice and going close several times, they only had Michael Callaghan's near-post header to show for their endeavour in a 2-1 defeat.
Watton A got a great 5-2 win over Hemsby Reserves in the first round of the Norfolk Primary Cup. Also deserving of congratulations are Watton United's U18 team, who secured their first victory of the season with a 1-0 win over Wisbech in midweek.
The club's newly-formed veterans' side (over 35s) got an impressive 7-1 away win over Attleborough, two divisions higher, in the cup.
