It was a pretty good tournament for the lads and we were a little unlucky not to make the quarter finals, we were made to pay for conceding a goal with pretty much the last kick of the first game.

If Ed had realised the rules earlier he may have given us the lead but ran into the area with the ball and we lost to that late goal.

In the second game we dominated throughout and were given a penalty when one of their players was stood in the middle of the area, Terry stepped up and sent the keeper the wrong way.

With other results, we had to win the last game to qualify and again dominated throughout the game, with their keeper making a number of saves from Dale, Ed and Terry.  The draw sent them through and sent us to the pub.

We were meant to play four matches but a team didn't turn up so we had a friendly against the same team we drew with in the third game so that we could have our full four matches we paid for.  We dominated again and this time Marc hit a low drive into the bottom corner towards the end, if we could have done this in the previous game we would have gone through.

Dale, Terry, Mark, Morris and Greg headed to London Bridge for drinks with the first four not heading home until 10pm.  It was a good day and a decent performance that didn't get the rewards that were deserved.

Player of the Tournament is jointly shared by Marc (pictured below) and Morris who were superb at the back and gave the team a good platform to build from.
