University Challenged

James Menzies

South spent the first 35 minutes chasing after posh young men named things like Arthur and Harold. A bit like when Loughborough Uni enter a team into University Challenge and end up watching in silence as Cambridge University answer questions about things you’ve never even heard of.

 

And yet we still won. Because we are rough, pragmatic, East Anglian men and occasionally life is about who scores more goals and not about which Ancient Greek playwright wrote the Lysistrata in 411BC.

 

0-1 down at half time we went on to claw back a 3-2 win. Goal-line saves kept South in the game but finally a couple cheeky short corner goals from Gando and Ali's 'wonder goal' sent Uni back to their governesses in disgrace.
