It was a 6v5 contest with Yusuf and then Paul swapping sides to help even things up as needed, with the result being a hard fought contest with the teams seperated by a single goal.
Jon returned from a lengthy spell in India and performed with the calm control of Gandhi mixed with the clever and accurate placing of Sunil Gavaskar; newcomer Chris showed a combination of technical skill and clever positional sense worthy of Glenn Hoddle in his heyday, whilst Graeme was reminiscent of his namesake Souness in the way he marshalled the midfield with grit and determination; and David made valuable tackles and incisive passes with the power of Gordon McQueen and the dominance of Ian Ure.
Meanwhile Tim, Luke, Paul, and Yusuf (who had helped the other side to an initial 3-0 lead) fought like demons and ran like billy-o, even using their energy to be ball boys and collecting the ball for the opposition when it went out of play.
It all worked to level the score at 5-5, but with Paul switching sides for the last 5-10 minutes once again the 5 men dominated the 4 and came home 6-5 winners.
Once again, it was a tight contest for man of the match with many players having a strong claim, but the Man of the Match goes to Jon, who performed tirelessly and effectively for his side.
