Pies sponsored team reaches Semi-Finals

By shinychris

who ate all the pies team shot.jpgOK it's only the London Churches 7 a side tournament, not the Premiership, but world domination has to start somewhere.

This year the Pies side really excelled themselves for a bunch of mainly thirty and forty something Ginster guzzlers, playing five, winning two, drawing two and losing just one. No mean feat when the opposition is all twenty years younger and much faster.

After coming third in their league, St Lukes got into a knockout shield competition which they won in extra time with a superbly headed goal from Rotimi. They then won again with an amazing long range punt from Paul, a game which also saw Tom squaring up to their keeper after he was hacked down just as he was about to score (aren't Christians supposed to be peaceful folk?)

Unfortunately their luck changed in the semi-final which they lost 1-0 with a soft early goal, but even so the boys - or should that be old fellas - did Pies proud. Nice one.

Thanks to Mike Poole for the photo.

What do you mean "it's only the London Churches 7 a side tournament". That'll be the biggest non-professional football tournament in the capital I'll have you know!


Great to have you with us, and congratulations on reaching the semi's. See you next year.
