as possible the least unbiased reporter available, you should beware, but there was no late penalty… three goals in open play, and 2-1 to the good guys.
Can someone give us a fuller report of the tourament? Dare I ask; how did Cardiff fare?
a collection of photos will be made available shortly. briefly, the two leagues finished as follows, with names of the losers coded to protect their dignity:
league-A
pts gd team
09 +07 edinburgh
09 +04 st andrews
07 +05 belfast
04 -02 durham
00 -10 oceanic six
league-B
pts gd name
10 +8 belfast
07 +4 liverpool
07 -1 cardiff
03 -5 glasgow
00 -6 leicester (forgot to disguise the name - sorry Jonny!)
yes, i know the goal differences don’t add up to zero, but those were the scores on the doors!
semis were edinburgh vs liverpool and belfast vs st andrews.
well-matched final was edinburgh vs belfast (2-1) with the trophy heading back to scotland.
superb performances from absolutely everyone, on both teams.
