Goalless Garon Park make their point

Garon Park Walking Football Club’s over 65s played out back-to-back goalless draws in the latest round of Essex Walking Football League fixtures.

The Southend-based outfit recorded a stalemate with Leyton Orient Reds. Then another hard-fought encounter ended scoreless as Garon’s and Eastwood Falcons Stripes shared the spoils.

“We’ve remained very strong defensively, having played five matches so far and not conceded a goal but the goal tally of two in five tells the story of a team lacking firepower,” boss Mark Elnaugh told Yellow Sport.

“We had opportunities in both games but failed to convert.”
