Local football report from the weekend

By John Hannaford East Devon Radio Sports Reporter

Most of our local football matches were postponed due to the poor weather conditions.

In local football on Saturday the after effects of storm Ciaran took its toll and all but two of our local fixtures were cancelled with heavy overnight rain adding to the problems.

There was just the two results and that was a 4-2 Devon cup victory for Beer Albion at Plymstock side Morley Rangers and a A&S league win for  Exeter side Newtown afc with a runaway 5 goals to 0 victory also against another Plymstock based side Plymstock Utd .

    A last-minute penalty sailed just wide of the posts to deny Chiefs a draw against the six-times European champions Toulouse. Instead, Chiefs had to be content with a try bonus-point when a victory had definitely been a possibility with the home side losing a player to red card early in the game. The lead changed hands seven times in a real Investec Champions Cup classic, but in the end, Toulouse hung on to take the win in front of a sold-out crowd.
