0-0 at half time but Peckham lucky to be still in it, with two goal line clearances. And it's bloody freezing.

 

[editor]

0-0 full time. Freezing and wet.

0-0 after extra time. Penalty shootout.

Peckham win the cup after about a million penalties!

For my first competitive game since lockdown, it was a good one. Both teams had good chances, Cubo should have scored within the 90mins from the amount of chances they had and from what others have said one of the goal line clearances was over the line.
Anyhoo, it was a great result for Peckham, plus awesome to see a few friendly faces and thank fook for Gore-Tex. The ride home was interesting

I really warmed to their pint-sized goalie - I thought he played really well - until he started up the ridiculous attempt at 'intimidation' before the penalty shoot out and then had a monster hissy fit.

Out of interest, were there any social distancing precautions or guidelines that fans had to adhere to? People don't look very spaced out in those photos.

There was plenty of space to feel safe in and the risks are considerably lower outdoors, but just like every pub/bar I've been to since the lockdown eased, I wouldn't say that social distancing was 100% adhered to all the time.

I'm aiming to be there tomorrow. f they're going to be called The Menace they should really play in red and black hoops, not red and white. (I know you would approve of anyone not playing in red and white.)

Looking forward to this a lot, a Saturday match at last.

There were, but I think it was totally ignored in the other side of the bar for some sort of teens' party.

It was strange hearing the music from that booming out over the game.

Yep , an all female Beaujolais Day knees up , couldn't remember the song that was blaring out over the minutes silence for Turvey but it was funny , i think one of the women jumped the fence onto the pitch but fortunately didn't go over the white line , all pretty surreal

I was probably lucky to be staffing the cask ale bar at the far end that day, think it was against Oxford City.

Hot in Here by Nelly. Think I was still laughing 10 minutes in to the game. Disgraceful etc.
