Grange Old Fogies home vs Dean Youngsters: Over-35 Team Plate final

Grange won 5-0 in cup scoring. We took some photos with a plate, ate some pizza off
a plate and watched the Fiorentina penalty horror show ;-)

Here are the winners, Grange O-35 team.

Titan Grange Old Fogies home v Dean Youngsters
1. Suggett G bt Wallace C 3-1 1/9 9/1 9/3 9/5
2. Whitelaw A bt Anderson R 3-0 9/3 9/4 9/5
3. Dutton M bt Todd R 3-1 2/9 9/5 9/2 9/4
4. Young R bt Griffiths N 3-1 7/9 9/0 9/4 9/5
5. Roberts R bt Jones P 3-0 9/4 9/6 9/6

Peter Roberts won his team debut in fine style with trademark retrieving and even reffed the next match. Peter Young had a slow start but soon got control over Nikki Griffith. Similarly Dutton slow-started against long-time adversary Ron Todd while Andy Whitelaw made his debut in Grange colours, the ex-Marco's man been just too canny for Dean captain Ross Anderson (i.e. I didn't see it).
Suggett got a topspin forehand drop/fake-drive out of his system and a sublime push down the wall but also a lot of rubbish down the middle against Craig Wallace.



Here are the runners-up, Dean O-35 team. Names listed above.








So the team season finally came to a close with our first win in the Over-35 plate. Well done guys.
