Shambles Football Team

The tournament is scheduled for 28th and 29th May. The last one, last May, was great fun, with both Shambles teams doing pretty well. Shambles AA, the drinkers' team, hobbled around and lost 1-0 to tournament winners, and the Shambles A (non-boozy types) didn't lose, and won the plate. They drew too many to go on to the Cup competition - they didn't drink enough, either. An expat team from Guangzhou came along and won the tournament and 9 other local teams took part. With 12 teams, Saturday was the group stage with 4 groups of 3 teams, so each team got two games on Saturday. Sunday was the Cup and Plate day. The group winners played semi finals and maybe the final for the Cup and the other 8 teams played a knockout tournament for the plate.
