    Shane Kill the Otters Off 9-1 in Cup First Round

    Patrick Swandell and Paul Warren both hit hat-tricks as Shane kicked off their season with a comprehensive cup win over an improved Otters side at Bailing Bridge. Despite fears of a waterlogged pitch, the conditions were good, and the cooler September climate suited the Shane team. Shane started the game quickly, with Patrick Swandell slamming in the first goal from the edge of the box, following a bit of pinball in the penalty area. Otters replied quickly though and scored w

    Mighty Shane Triumph Over Eagles in Early Season Thriller

    On the back of an embarrassing defeat to Daan, the boys in yellow came out with a point to prove against an in-form Eagles side. This point was made with aplomb as Shane ran out 2-1 winners in a hotly contested affair under the sweltering Taiwanese sun. The 1:00 start saw the boys peeling off clothing even prior to kickoff, as temperatures pushed into the 30s. Despite the heat, the match started with high intensity, with both sides surging forward to test the opposition and g

    Mighty Shane 2-6 Daan: First half collapse stuns Shane

    The Mighty Shane suffered its first heavy defeat in a long time against strong opposition in Daan, who themselves bounced back from losing their first two games of the season. After an excellent 2017 defensively and an opening day clean sheet in the win over the Badgers, it was surprising to see Daan run into a 4-0 lead by the half hour mark, effectively ending any chance of a Shane comeback. The Shane back line was repeatedly hit by long balls and the pace of Daan’s strikers

    Mighty Shane Bury the Badgers 3-0

    The Mighty Shane got their season off to a flying start as their three unanswered goals proved too much for a much improved Badgers side on the opening day of the season at Xinzhuang Stadium. A much reinforced Shane team, reverting back to their customary yellow and black strip – after a season in an unfamiliar white wilderness – boasted no fewer than five debutants in their match day squad. The impressive Paul Warren rounded off a comprehensive victory for Shane with Matt Wr

    Mighty Shane in High Spirits Ahead of 2018 Season

    Following the winter break and Chinese New Year, our first match of the season will be against On Tap Badgers on February 25 in the revamped OTPL. With the decision taken to split the league into two divisions, a qualifying round will be played first, with every team playing each other once to determine which teams will play in each division. We will be looking to improve on our impressive season last year and aim for a spot in the top division. This will be a challenge, but

    With the start of the 2018 OTPL season just around the corner, preparations are being made behind the scenes across the league table. For starters, the league managers and representatives have voted to break the OTPL into two divisions, with a promotion/relegation system in place to promote competition and parity. It will also keep league fees down, and ensure that we are no longer subjected to the midsummer Taipei heat – as the newly devised two-division play will run parall

    The Mighty Shane finished out the campaign with another win against tough opposition, coming out on top 5-2 against an in-form JFC to make it three wins on the bounce and end their season in blistering form. This game had been billed as a cup final, with 7th place still up for grabs for the victor. Speaking between puffs of smoke before the match, player-manager Sam Thompson bemoaned the lack of available playing staff due to injuries and commitments outside Taiwan. Not feeli

    The Mighty Shane 6-2 Taipei Eagles: Shane dominate game to record biggest win of the season

    The Mighty Shane took full advantage of an understrength Eagles side – who’d had a great season up to this point – to continue their fine form going into the season’s climax. With a strong lineup, Shane started the game confidently and dominated the opening stages, afforded time and space to get on the ball and play their passing game. This bore fruit when a great move saw Shane take the lead. Captain Jamie Smith – back in the side after suspension – played an accurate ball f

    Mighty Shane 4-0 Taipei Magpies: Shane turn on the style in convincing win

    After a winless run of four games, Shane comfortably dispatched of the Magpies to gain three valuable points and set up an enticing end to the season. The opposition had suffered of late, but with confirmation pre match that some of their star players had returned, Shane knew they’d have to perform well to win the game. A positive start certainly helped, with Shane bossing possession and playing attractive football – something that had been somewhat lacking in recent matches.

    The Mighty Shane got their season back on track with a big win over an in-form Badgers side last weekend. Despite a shaky start, the Shane boys controlled the game and came away with a well-deserved three points that leave them within striking distance of the top half of the table. Under the warm October sun, the game started at a frenetic pace as the Badgers came out of the gates already at a sprint. Their early aggression was almost immediately rewarded, as Badgers captain

    The Mighty Shane 0 - 0 B53 Carnegies: Shane impress again against tough opposition

    Shane produced another excellent performance and claimed a point from one of the top teams in the league. Following the previous week’s dramatic victory over league champions Red Lions, this match was arguably an even more difficult proposition as B53 are currently challenging for the 2017 title, trailing only to B52 Carnegies in second place. Despite the gap in the table, Shane went into the game with confidence, and it showed in the early exchanges of the game. With the poo

    Zachary Paruch scored twice including the winning goal as Shane put last week’s defeat firmly behind them with a resounding victory over last season’s runaway champions Red Lions in a fiercely contested showdown at FuJen University. Canadian Paruch, 37, has proved somewhat of a ‘thorne in the side’ for opposition teams in recent weeks – his two goals today taking his season's tally to 11 in all competitions after only netting four in the previous season.

    The Mighty Shane triumphed 5-3 over a dangerous Warriors side in a roller coaster of a match to win 2 games on the bounce and go 4 games unbeaten. Having to start the game with so many first team players unavailable and in the hottest conditions of the season, it was never going to be an easy match. Shane started strongly however, and quickly went two goals to the good through this season's top scorer, Zach Paruch. The first came when a nice move down the right side saw winge

    The Mighty Shane put two disappointing draws behind them and got back to winning ways with a 4-2 victory over Triangle FC. After drawing from dominant winning positions against both the Celts and Magpies, Shane found their scoring touch to put this game beyond doubt. On a blisteringly hot day, Shane started quickly and took a 2-0 lead in the opening 10 minutes. For the first, tricky forward Jayke Langley was brought down in the box after taking on a defender.

    A 40-yard free kick with only minutes left on the clock saw the Celts earn a draw against a superior Shane side in the On Tap Premier League on Sunday. The 11:00 kickoff at Fujen University saw both teams roasting under the midday sun. Despite the heat, the game began at a frantic pace, with the Mighty Shane bossing proceedings. Winger Jayke Langley went close early on with a one-time shot that was well-saved by the Celts keeper. Moments later, midfielder Zach Paruch stung th

    Following two consecutive league defeats, the Mighty Shane returned to winning ways with a much needed 2-0 victory against On Tap Badgers. The game started at a frantic pace as the Badgers poured men forward and almost went ahead in the opening couple of minutes through a free kick that goalkeeper Toby Shaw tipped onto the post. It was the first in a string of fine saves from the Shane stopper. The lads looked nervous early on and struggled to get their passing game going, w

    The Mighty Shane continued their great run of form this season with an impressive win over Japanese FC. In a tightly contested game, it was Shane’s resolute defense and fluid attacking that made the difference. The 3:00 kickoff saw some of the warmest weather of the season so far, and it was clear early on that Shane were well up for the occasion. Right from the start, Shane dominated possession and pressed high up the pitch, causing all sorts of problems for the opposition.

    The Mighty Shane were denied their first win of the season as a last gasp goal saw the Eagles snatch a point in a 1-1 draw. Shane went into the game hoping to push on from their impressive opening day performance, but started slowly and struggled to get their game going in the first half. Off the ball, they were too slow in closing down the Eagles and winning loose balls, allowing the opposition time and space to move the ball around well. With the ball, the lads looked uncha
