The 300 Spartans story about their epic bravery in the face of the onslaught of thousands of rabid Persians was a fine tale, except for one fact; the Spartans ended up getting slaughtered. However, a better story for future history lessons was how the mighty 9 man Red team withheld the onslaught of the Grasshoppers front line and went one better than the men from Sparta, winning 3-0.
Yes, after only having the bare 9, we started this game looking to hold on for as long as possible until some reinforcements maybe arrived. This was not to be, but it did not matter as goals from Shaun Sweeney, Chris (on loan from the BMFC) and Adam made the Grasshoppers hopping mad; so mad indeed that some internal squabbling amongst the insect boys was a highlight of the third period of time. Hard to give POM for this one, especially as Andy Johnston had a viable excuse for not turning up. MOM has to go to Chris at the back for having a solid game and notching. Well done that man!
