Late goal costs Swifts

  Stourport Swifts  0  Winsford United 1 MPL  25th March 2026  Att: 72

Played at Droitwich Spa.

 A late goal from Winsford sub Matt Birchall condemned Stourport Swifts to another defeat at the hands of play off chasers Winsford United.

The Swifts produced a battling performance throughout, and should have taken the lead on 14 minutes when Jake Cooper’s thunderous 30 yard free kick was parried by Jacob Kirwan, Kai Adams followed up to finish, but somehow the ball finished up back in the grateful goalkeeper’s arms. Three minutes later Lewis Moseley let another golden opportunity slip away when his snap shot flashed wide after a surging run and cross down the left from Andy Cairney.

Winsford skipper Reece Davies headed over the bar following a rare first half attack from the visitors, then Max Colebrooke saw his shot well saved by Kirwan as Adams  robbed the keeper in possession after he dallied on the ball. Early in the second half Kirwan kept out a fierce effort from Adams, as Winsford began to realise that only a win would keep them in the play off hunt and began to apply some pressure, but skipper Harry Higginson marshalled the Swifts defence well as United turned the screw.

Adams threatened again as he skipped past three defenders into the Winsford box to see his low shot  blocked, but with ten minutes to go Birchall burst through to turn a low shot past the advancing Alex King to keep his team in the promotion hunt.

Bowater canes Swifts

 Stone Old Alleynians 4  Stourport Swifts  0  MPL  21st March 2026  Att: 71

 Stone striker Jack Bowater scored four goals in 17  first half minutes to put Stourport Swifts to the sword .

Stourport saw two early chances go begging as first Andy Cairney headed wide at the far post, then Kai Adams headed over the top five minutes later. Their bright start continued, and Stone defender Matt Thomas did well to block Cairney’s goalbound effort.

After 25 minutes Bowater opened the scoring after Nathan Bowen clumsily brought him down in  the box, and Bowater dusted himself down to fire Stone in front from the spot kick. Almost before the PA announcing the goalscorer the second came as Bowater was first to react in the six yard box to volley in as the Swifts defence watched. Number three came just two minutes later when he skipped through a statice Swifts back line to squeeze a low shot just inside the post, before a spectacular fourth two minutes before half time when King failed to clear a speculative ball on the edge of the box and Bowater spun acrobatically to deliver an overhead kick into an empty goal with the keeper stranded.

Swifts produced a much improved second half display, with Adams forcing Stone keeper Raajan Gill to a fine save after outpacing the Stone defence, and Cairney drilled wide when well placed, but the Swifts could not recover from Bowater’s 17 minute mauling.

SWIFTS: King, Bowen, Joe Hanson, Higginson, Cooper, Matt Hanson, Jim Hanson,   Moseley, Dapaa, Cairney, Adams. SUBS USED: Colebrook, Carter, Rawlins, Titterton,

Colebrooke steps up to snatch Swifts win

 Stourport Swifts 2  Romulus 1   MPL 14th March 2026  Att: 92

Supersub Max Colebrooke headed an injury time winner to  give Swifts the three points their performance deserved.

Despite an opening spell where Kai Adams shot wide after a surging run into the Romulus box, Archie Thurston forced Romulus keeper Callum Smith into a low save and Joe Hanson headed wide at the far post from a Jake Cooper corner, the Swifts had nothing to show for a barrage  of constant pressure in the first 20 minutes. Logan Trainer headed an Abu Kanu cross over the bar in a rare Romulus attack before Adams finally broke the deadlock with a low shot  just inside the post five minutes before half time to give his side the lead.

Seconds into the second half  Romulus equalised with bizarre goal from keeper Smith, when from a back pass straight from the kick off, his huge kick from fully eighty yards caught Swifts’ Alex King off his line and sailed into the net.

With an unlikely leveller, Romulus responded to produce their best spell of the game, and both Joe Hanson and Lewis Morley desperately blocked a goal bound effort from Fahim Ibrahim, and King produced a fine save to keep out a low drive from Joe Morley.

With time ticking away and a draw looking imminent, Matt Hanson drove a deep cross into the box, and Smith’s frantic punch in a crowded penalty box fell to Colebrooke at the far post to head in from close range.

SWIFTS: King, Bowen, Joe Hanson, Higginson, Cooper, Moseley, Harland, Jim Hanson, Dapaa, Thurston,  Adams. SUBS USED:  Colebrooke, Cairney, Matt Hanson, Carter.
