LANCING NOT DANCING; MILLFIELDIANS MAKE 2nds WORK

The Old Carthusians won their 26th Dunn Cup Final today at a wind affected Heston Sports Ground in the shadow of the Heathrow flight path. The OCs, the jumbo jets of the Public School old boys world, nicked a last minute winner against their old foe Lancing Old Boys. Will Young kept the OCs in the game with one excellent save from a gale force shot and his handling was secure. Julian Hornby sold a dummy or two down the left flank and crossed low for Charlie Clinton to break LOBs hearts.
Prior to this win, the OC 2nds scored twice to beat the Old Millfieldians, 2-0 in extra time, in the Junior League Cup. There were two great shots/mis-hit crosses to secure the win, one from Harry Walford, the other from Jonny Hunter, both from the left side, flying in with the wind behind them. Once again Carthusian football dominates the relatively small but nevertheless important world of non-league, truly amateur Arthurian football.
Many thanks to all those Arthur Dunn organisers who run this competition so efficiently.
Below are the happy 2nds and below them the 1sts cuddling the massive Dunn Cup and both teams completing their league and cup double.
