4-0 win v Rouge Chien. 2nd win of the season. Moved the ball around nicely. About time we did something right!
Oh and team BBQ after. #RN4Life

[Real Nelson @realnelson]

2-1 loss to Jewellery Wankers. Much better effort. Standings still have us in relegation zone, 1-0-5. Appearance by #CocoaThunderfoot though so the mems were heavy. Onwards.

[Real Nelson @realnelson]

Big 6-1 win over Rouge Chien last night. Every player looked the part, well except for the extremely rusty @RNSkipper.
Sad to also report our new VVD clone Eric suffered a broken collarbone. Onwards! #RN4Life

[Real Nelson @realnelson]

We returned to the pitch tonight for 2026.
Sadly a 4-1 loss to Jewellery Wankers isn’t the start we wanted.
Nice to bed in two new players mind you, we go on, Rouge Chien next week. Stay tuned #RN4Life

2-1 loss to #SkiHillWankers.
Reffing suspect. Chances missed that should have been scored, but we move on.

2-1 win over Rouge Chien in tonight’s obviously outstanding festival of football at Lakeside Park. @jay_t_wright the man of the match for the #AngelsinWhite #RN4Life

[Real Nelson @realnelson]

New year. New RN KIT LAUNCH! The #angelsinwhite are BACK!
Unfortunately so is the old goat known as @RNSkipper

[Real Nelson @realnelson]

RN starts the 2024 season off with 2 wins and a draw. Top of the table with SkiResortWankers.
Won’t last though, they’re just too good, that #skiresortmoney ensures they’ll always be there or thereabouts at the end of every season!

Well researched.

0-3 loss in the final. 3rd time we’ve gotten to the big dance, third time we’ve lost the plot at the wrong moments.
Heartbreaking. We go on next season.

[Real Nelson @realnelson]

@richrrd Skips’ knees are hamburger. He might need all that to play again next Sunday in the final.

[Real Nelson @realnelson]

@realnelson DOWN 3-0 on the second half in this year’s semifinal, mount #Liverpoolesque comeback and win 4-3 in ET. Long-suffering fans said to be “chuffed”.
@richrrd

[Real Nelson @realnelson]

Real win 3-2 against TAJ, Bia Boro loses, Real wins regular season title! Now for the absolutely rubbish “playoffs”.
We @ RN wish that @richrrd raises a glass of full fat Coke and a Scotch Egg in our honour across the pond……

[Real Nelson @realnelson]

Real starts season 3-0 for the first time in an eon, with a tidy 5-0 win over “The Reddest of Dogs”.
Skipper scores 2, still holding tight to the hope that Scotland will eventually come calling.
#hopespringseternal #RN4life

[Real Nelson @realnelson]

Real start season 2-0 with 2-1 wins over TAJ and 4-3 over J-Holers.

Skipper said to be “happy with current form” but is still hoping for a Saudi takeover.

@richrrd would be proud.

Football, Real Nelson, and the fat lad are BACK!
Real wins its first match of the 2022 season 2-1 over the Jewellery Men. Can they challenge for the title? #notheycannot

[Real Nelson @realnelson]

It’s been a while.

It’s also my awful responsibility to say that one of our lads has fallen.

Chris “Toits” Butterfield died earlier this week. An original RNer. One of the finest and coolest men I’ve ever known.

An immense loss to not only his brilliant kids, but to everyone.

[Real Nelson @realnelson]

4-1 win over the bloody awful Rouge Chien.
Still finished 5th in the first half table.
On a personal note this team is rather frustrating to play for, not as a whole, just a few individuals who make it a pain in the arse.
Still, onwards and upwards.....
