The Ship, Swinefleet.
A regular venue now for all subbuteo folk.
Once again the preparations are underway,
would anyone manage to beat Trevor Cummings this time ?
Also - could I manage a leap of faith and make the premier league ?!?
In my dreams.
I'll be lucky to hang on to the 3rd place I've got now.
Off we go - Tippy and Ben here.
Trevor and Martin in the background
My first game wasn't too great,
Neil Munns 0-6 Neil Lishman
Kevin Adderley and Rob O'hare.
This game could affect my 3rd position,
Kev was in 4th and Rob was in 2nd
I too played Rob and Kev
Neil Munns 1-3 Rob O'Hare
Neil Munns 0-0 Kevin Adderley
Interesting tactics from Tippy !
Centre circle siege or what ?
Ben and Martin.
Martin has crept-up recently to give everyone a right good kicking.
This is the crunch match !
Trevor cummings against Mike Parnaby.
Mike was 2nd in the premier league
and hoping take Trevors' title away.
What about my last few games - did I make it?
Neil Munns 2-0 Eddie Betteridge
Neil Munns 0-3 Neil Lishman (again)
Nope.I did get one win against Eddie though, sorry mate.
But, overall it wasn't exactly the plan I had.
Some ale always helps proceedings !
Not content with beating Mike in the league
Trevor then faced Mike for the Final of the cup.
This time Mike hung on but just lost out to a last minute winner
losing 2-1 to Trev.Bloody close game !
Top of the pile.
Trev took both league and cup trophies.
Well done mate.
So, that's the end of the 2005-06 season.
What was my final position in the 1st division going to be ?
Did I make promotion to the Premiership !
Not a chance mateys.I dropped to 4th in the end.
That's one place below Kevin Adderley - Oh the shame of it !!!
