IT'S A DOG'S DAY IN HALESOWEN

No doubt you will have read about this pitch invasion and I know I have written about pitch invasions before, but the amusement caused by this charming Beagle at Halesowen must be seen, even if you have already done so.

The reaction by the commentator is enough to cause a giggle and keep watching as even the keeper, with huge gloves on, fails to make a catch! Actually, a seven minute break in a game is enough to cause an upset, as you will see it didn't affect the home team too much.

The dog, owned by Halesowen player, Asa Charlton, ran riot for seven minutes and his owner couldn't explain how he had got loose. In the end, The Yeltz, as they are known, won the game 1-0! Asa eventually trapped the hound and at the ripe old age of 38, that was an achievement! (for Asa that is).

Founded in 1873, Halesowen Town FC is one of the oldest in the country. Once a local Birmingham league side, they now play in the Evo-Stick Northern Premier League, Premier Division, having been promoted in 2013-14. The Yeltz have played at their ground,The Grove, since being founded. It was also a cricket ground and the club has gradually added facilities to make it into a decent stadium.
