HORNBY TREBLE O as CARTHUSIANS STEAM IN

The Old Carthusians won their 25^th Arthur Dunn final in the 100^th playing of the game at the Imperial Sports’ ground, Teddington yesterday. The Foresters were highly motivated opponents, who appearing in their natty suits prior to the game, looked as though they really meant business. Indeed, they did and for 20 minutes or so they dominated the game, putting the OC defence under pressure, especially from corners and free kicks. Two goal line clearances and a brilliant reaction save by Rob Procter kept the score sheet clean. As the first half wore on it was obvious that the OCs were gaining their composure and with more accurate shooting, should have gone ahead. The second half remained goal less, with chances being missed at both ends. In extra time the introduction of Jack Ryder-Smith (already an ISFA Cup winning captain) supplied Julian Hornby with two goals. The first, a superb low cross from the left and a glancing header from the lively Hornby and then a tap in for Hornby, after a mazy dribble past the Forest right side. Hornby's third goal was slotted home after he found himself in the clear, as Forest tried to gain parity. This is only the second hat trick in Arthur Dunn Cup history.

A good crowd watched three finals. The Oundle OBs beat the Stowe OBs in the David Walcott lower divisions trophy, the OC 2nd XI were beaten 2-1 by an impressive Marlburians side in the Junior League Cup.

OC captain for the final Jamie Cameron pops his cork.
