I counted 200 around the ground with a total of 50 on the pitch - the Colts ran out of white jerseys - and I've no idea how many pedestrians, pram-pushers and cyclists stopped to watch this 25th Anniversary encounter of the under 19s and over 35s. As ever, there was a degree of flexibility checking birth certificates and bus passes. I am assured that there's special dispensation for several "Vets" whose names were inspired by U2's 37 year old Joshua Tree.
You'll find photos of the indoor games and the YouTube video of match highlights in this website's media section. I saw two pitch side photographers who I presume will pass on their pictures for general viewing. I'm afraid that I was having video problems up on the railings so don't know who they are. I'm sure our Press Officer does.
Thanks to everyone who turned up yesterday. If nothing else, you made a good topic of conversation on the pavement overlooking the pitch to spread the word about the Wids.
If anyone knows how to sort a slight technical problem with a Panasonic HC-VXF1, I'd love to hear from you. Thanks in advance. John Loughnane 07871 274893
