PEGASUS GO DOWN
Pegasus Juniors 0 Shawbury United 2
West Midland Regional League Premier Division
Saturday 14th January, 2012 By Chris Wells
In the third minute the home side went a goal behind from a corner kick when Lester Alderson headed the ball in to the top corner of the goal. Pegasus went close to regaining parity eight minutes later, when Paul Allam combined with Ashley Weston to set Jimmy Moreton free but, keeper Andrew Spooner managed to block the shot with his outstretched leg. Midway through the half, a cross from Scott Roberts was dropped by Spooner when under pressure from Moreton but, the stopper was saved as his brother Robert as he cleared the ball to safety. Six minutes into the second period, the big strong visiting side almost increased the lead when Kevin McGarvey, fired through a crowded penalty area, he was denied by a fine save from the unsighted Jon Pugh diving full length to his left to push the ball wide of the upright. On the hour-mark the Shropshire side increased the lead when David Walbyoff drove the ball past Pugh. The home side battled away with some neat possession play but, were unable to make little headway against the strong robust visiting defence. With minutes remaining, Sam Harrison crossed the ball from the left when Cory Hyde directed his header the wrong side of the goal post.

HFA Giantkillers Cup Quarter Final
Wednesday 7th December, 2011 By Chris Wells
Pegasus Juniors entertained local rivals Westfields at the quarter-final stage of the HFA Gintkillers Cup at Old School Lane Hereford. This was always going to be a difficult game for the home team, who are basically an under seventeen side. The visitors being a year older fancied themselves to progress into the semi final of the competition, but they were out played without seriously testing the home goalkeeper. The first goal was scored following a flowing move from defence to Tom Parry, who sprayed the ball out to Jordan Mussell; his cross from the right was deflected into his own goal by a visiting defender under pressure from Parry. The second goal was scored when full back Jon Davies crossed from deep the visiting central defender headed the ball back towards his keeper, Pete Lucas anticipating the situation raced in between them and cleverly lobbed the ball over the advancing goalkeeper.

CHELTENHAM SWOOP FOR 5th PLAYER INSIDE 4 YEARS
Cheltenham Town has taken on a fifth player Pegasus player in four years from Pegasus Juniors. Pegasus Juniors U15 has lost another player to Cheltenham’s Academy team. Wagner Tarosso (pictured below with manager Stuart Jones) has been taken on a 12-month contract to play in Cheltenham’s U15 / U16 team. This is the fifth player who manager Stuart Jones has lost from his team to Cheltenham in the last four seasons. Stuart said, “ while the lose of Wagner is a big blow for my side who are playing up an age group this season it is a great opportunity for Wagner just like it has been for the other players we have lost. I wish Wagner good luck and hope he does as well over the coming season as the other players we have lost have done. Losing these players is a great advert for Pegasus Juniors Football Club and shows that the young players at the club are being coached the right way to be able to take that next step in their football careers. Hopefully, they will make the grade as professional footballers but if not the hope is they will come back and play for the Pegasus first team at some stage."
