A million thanks to all who took part or helped with the MCFC Centenary Supporters Association Sponsored, Fund Raising 5-a-side competition on Saturday 13th June at the Platt Lane Complex.
 
A sunny day saw 24 teams, including an Old Boys team, sportingly battle it out for the trophies and certificates. The eventual and deserved winners were Inter-City. The football on offer was first class and the Old Boys had the class to win all their 3 games without conceding a single goal. Captain of the Old Boys, Andy May did the honours at the end of the football.
 
The day wasn't just about playing football though. It was more about supporters, the club, some Old Boys and others coming together to support a fellow Blue who through the result of a tragic accident, whilst supporting City is having a difficult time. 
 
Members of Carl's family attended and gave us their thanks and an up-date on Carl's slow but steady progress. Markus Rehse from Schalke 04, who has raised much for the Appeal and given much practical support to the family whilst Carl was hospitalised in Germany attended and was a much welcomed guest. 
 
All referees gave their services free of charge. Many branches and teams taking part paid more than the entrance fee to bolster the amount raised. I got a cheque for £50-00 from a Blue who wanted to support the Appeal in his own way. Carl's family are overwhelmed and deeply grateful for the generosity of so many City supporters. The bottom line is the 5-a-side raised a magnificent and much needed £988-00 for the Appeal.
