The teams: PHWT FC vs. Electric Centre
The venue: Myton School
The time: 6.45pm after some vigorous warming up in the field next to the pitch
The aim: To sort the men from the boys

 

PHWT FC's  penultimate game of the season, currently middle of the league table.  The atmosphere was tense and you could sense Electric Centre were going to have a fight on their hands.  Going down 3-1 in the first half was a blow, and there was a hint of dejection in the air, but they picked themselves up, dusted themselves off and looked to play as if their lives depended upon it.  Sadly, it transpired that no one was really that bothered and PHWT went down 7-2 by the final whistle.   PHWT goals scored by Matt C and Giz.


PHWT FC – united, even in defeat, apart from Giz who scarpered before I got the camera out

  Panos; as graceful as a bird in flight

 
  Dejection personified 

Tonight PHWT FC face Flat Cap and Whippets in their final league game.  If they beat them by 4 goals they move up to 4th place in the league, which isn't too shabby.  Let’s hope the opponents are as old as their name suggests. 

GO TEAM!

A huge well done to Katie Birditt (our very own Paula Radcliffe but without the obvious scatological tendencies) who took part in the Race for Life on Sunday with her cousin Alice, running 5 kilometres round Stratford Racecourse.  They raised over £250 for Cancer Research UK. 


Considering Katie has only been off crutches for 3 months, it’s a tremendous effort!

A warm welcome to Donna Nixon who joins us as an Account Director.  The U.S. President, Richard Nixon (a relative?) used to enjoy tomato ketchup on cottage cheese for lunch.  Why not try jazzing up your own lunch with this simple suggestion?

 

Here are Donna’s 5 facts:

1. My nickname is ‘Welly’.

2. I am a keen netballer and I am the Manager of Stratford Ladies Netball Team.

3. I don’t like celery and think it tastes of perfume.

4. I once attended a penalty shoot out with Michael Owen.

5. I love dancing and watching ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ as I’m a bit of a TV addict!
