Beer, pies and teeny-weeny footballers.

Wednesday 6th July saw the Red Box Table Football Tournament roll into town once again.

This year our fighting fit team consisted of Andrew 'The Stopper' Musumeci and Richie 'The Scorer' Florey.

After doing a bit of pre-match warm-up (beers), it was game on.

Each game lasted no more than 3 minutes and the only rule?  THERE ARE NO RULES.

Oh, except for no spinning.  Spinning is cheating.

After winning the first game 8-2, and losing the second 5-2, our team needed some half-time encouragement (beer and also, pies).

Winning the third game 5-3 pushed our team into the Quarter Finals...unfortunately, that's as far as they went, finally bowing out with a result of 2-0.

Great sports that they are, they valiantly stayed on to support the other teams (drink more beers).

Despite the eventual result, a good time was had by all.

Special thanks to Amit 'The Cheerleader' Dave and Merran 'Just a small glass' Lusher for their unwavering support throughout the evening.

Roll on next year...we've already started practising.
