Many adventurous days out for differing reasons , but in no particular order ;

1 . Boston lost 6-0 in the cup , completely outplayed , definitely second best , but what a following ( 50 est ) , Pickles toilet roll incident , threats of arrest by the local rozzer who was on his time of the month , the moonies on the coach departing Boston , the toilet break on the way back , Reece going arse over tit by the side of the road , and a Bolshey coach driver to boot :lol:

2. Flixton lost 4-3 in NWCL , last game of the season , reece got lost finding ground via Traffords ground , but still won the league that night , some went fancy dress ( although Reece went as himself ) , Reece nearly choked to death as his pint in the club house had the filter from the pump in it . We got abuse from 3 guys over 70 in the very small seated stand and the ground I swear to this day had an open sewer :o

3. New Mills won 6-1 in the league last season and the last game before the Staffs Senior cup final. Played some of the best football I have ever seen Grove play , with Liam looking like Messi and the best of overall midfield performances by any team in a long while. Not to forget Reece getting lost going home meaning we drove past where we had parked 15 minutes after we left.

4. Gresley I think we lost 3-2 in the last minute , on a ground with a slope comparable to Glapwell.
Journey home saw our unnamed driver brake like mad thinking a speed camera had just clocked him when it was Pickle taking a photo of his speedo doing more than 50 mph from the back seat , priceless :lol:

Drew 3-3 thanks to a Shots hat-trick with 10 men after Mitch Shenton got sent off for a brilliantly blatant handball. As well as the slope, the goals at each end didn't line up with each other either.

Boston, Carlton and New Mills were great - I'd throw in the win at Ilkeston last year and the 0-0 draw at Boston when we got battered but they couldn't find a way past.
