The game started like any other M5 game; a 1km team jog around the running track.

Unfortunately the team only consisted of seven players at the time - the others were eagerly watching from their cars with binoculars, patiently awaiting the signaling of the end of the warm-up.

The game itself went like this:

We scored.

The opposition scored.

Some notable moments:

Andy T stepped in to goalkeep - made some fantastic saves. The only one which made it through was a top corner strike which I doubt any keeper would have stopped.

Skipper-of-the-day Shahbaz slipped with ball possession in the most embarrassing fashion. The plan to clinch the LoM title was executed flawlessly.

Stu Creed was hit on his broken hand more than once - something which he didn't mention AT ALL AT ANY POINT during the game. As we all know, he doesn't like to talk much while playing…

Peter Creed was chastised several times by his father both on and off the pitch - most notably a LoM vote mentioning lack of passing (which we assume was cast by his father as he promptly vanished when the votes were to be read out).

Goal scorers in order (from my hazy memory):

Phil - Dribbling past half the opposition team then striking from top D to left corner.

Alex P - One man run from half way line to top of D; strike into the net.

Alex P - Reverse hit over the logged keeper.

Matt - Insightful pass from Alex P to Matt at top D, who fired his bullet under the diving keeper.

Stu - Completely unpracticed one-two short corner strike from P-spot to backboard.
