That was me
We won it again at Bank Hall I think
I got a hat trick and was presented with the hideous chunk of wood by Jimmy Robson
Have to say as his lad Craig was playing for us, that he’d have likely got the MOM as his surprising pace for a fat lad had kept us in the game defensively so that when I scored the first of my hat trick on 89 minutes it took us to extra time broke the spirit of Longside who having beaten us by 6 or so in both league games had walked out, being video’d, in suits before the game and then trotted out again being filmed in all orange ready to give us a pasting.
We must have got to 3 finals then, I played at Bank Hall the next year and we got beat. Can’t remember who by.
Robbo was always quick. Never more so than when he got sent off for booting Aidy Leonard (r.i.p.) up the arse following some verbals over a throw in.

Sounds about right. How many OG’s did Des get? No wonder I retired through a persistent back injury, picking the ball out of the net so often!

They must be the team to watch, guaranteed goals at either end with them
Yes, but just watch when I add them to my over 2.5 goals accumulator. Guaranteed goal less draw then.
