Oh dear

The Gorse Fox met up with his team and we drove up to the Powerleague Centre at Croydon. Today was the day. We had the regional heats of the National Walking Football Tournament. The winners today would go through to the quarter finals.

We started well, we turned up on time. Then we got better, we had remember our kit, and managed a team photo. Then came the bit where we had to play football against 4 other teams. We drew the first game. The Gorse Fox was not playing well. In fact he was pants. He put it down to nerves, but that is no excuse. He was pants.

That draw was the highlight of the day, as we lost all of our other games. Our star player was our goalie, without whom we would have been humiliated. Putting a positive spin on it, at least we won't have to travel up north for the quarter finals!
