It's Just Like Watching Brazil

Tyneside Amateur League Division 2

IJLW Brazil
Andrew, Paterson, Churchley, Kennedy, Haigh, Bernstone, Freath, Honeywood, McGowan, Ho, Goodliff.

No sooner had the Brazil 11 got out of the changing rooms, was the match called off by the lanky referee. The terrible organisation by Inter Dental led to both teams and the referee travelling to a frozen pitch when the game could easily have been cancelled early in the morning.

This was the last match of 2005 so Brazil will go into the New Year with a healthy league position, following a 100% record in the month of December.

John Hampson Memorial Trophy Group D

Match postponed due to no referee.

Despite the match not being played, a Brazil player picked up the first trophy of the season. Steve Ho was presented with a small lolly-stick model of himself by Paul Smith’s son. On the back was rumoured to be written: “Steve/11/I love you. Thanks for the sweets.”
