There was another football tournament today. Arun Amblers donned our green kit and joined the seven-way competition. There were 3 teams from Worthing, 1 from Brighton, 1 form Lancing, 1 from Bognor Regis, and us.

It was played as a league - each team playing each of the other teams, and the usual 3 points for a win, 1 for a draw, and 0 for a loss. We started well with a 1-0 win over Worthing-C, then lost a game 0-1 against Brighton with the last kick of the match. After that we got into our stride, winning all but one of the remaining games, drawing that one. The Gorse Fox even managed to score a very fine goal.

At the end, we were joint top of the league, but dropping to second on goal-difference. Shame we didn't use the Spanish La Ligue method of separating equivalent teams based on their head-to-head performance as we had beaten the team that ended top.
