Bolton Over 35 Veterans' Football League

Hopes of reducing the backlog of games in the Bolton Over 35s Football League were sabotaged by the weather on Sunday when only the Division One game between Turton Vets and Royal Farnworth was played. The 2-1 away win moved Royal up to second in the table, a point behind leaders De La Salle and three ahead of Boothstown, but they have played eight games whereas De La Salle have played just 4 times and Boothstown five.

Matt Obersby scored both goals for Royal, but in the absence of a match card, the Match Secretary had to chase for the score. Hopefully, things will improve in the New Year when six rearranged games are scheduled for Sunday 4th January 2026.

Score for Sunday 14th December 2025

Division 1 :   Turton Vets 1  Royal Farnworth 2

All other games postponed.
