A rare glorious summer's day in Nottingham, and a full 22 lined up for the annual game, thanks to a last minute dip into the local French player pool. Neither Mayor-elect Jim Higginbotham or his excuse turned up this year, after the usual promises. Two of the Notts Uni class of '90 failed to make it for genuinely decent reasons, after the work relocations of Graham Jackson and Dave Holburn to South Africa and Aberdeen, respectively. Book those flights early chaps for 2008. So, two new caps for Max Houllier and Paul McGivern.

Sheffy is Golden

Sheffy receives the Golden Magic Boot from a graciously sporting Sid. A number of worthy performers this year, but the Yorkshireman pipped them with his glorious penalty comp strike.

 

After the match and penalty competition, the players and families retired to the Rose & Crown on Derby Road for a post-match refreshment.
