Workers 5,Managers 0-Ordsall(Salford) Leisure Centre
One of the events being staged for Red Nose Week at Royal Mail Salford Quays was a Managers vs Advisors football match.I probably wouldn't have bothered to watch,but having sat through a Team talk at which a veiled threat was made by the Management to ourselves, I decided to go.
The Managerial "team" were rather thin on the ground,so they pinched a few of our players,including unfortunately our Union rep, who was as a result catcalled and called a "Judas" and a "scab" by Lisa Hadley,me,Joanne etc-this was meant as a joke,Challers is an OK rep!!!!
In goal the Managers had "fatboy" Pinder,with a scattering of Sales people in the outfield.To be quite honest despite the fact that the Managers had also stolen Jason Dunn,the sides represented a bit of a mismatch;our team were young and fit,and the Managers weren't.
The first goal was hammered in by Kevin Whittingham after five minutes, with the superior skill and movement of the ACAs carving a route through some stiff defence. The Managers had a secret weapon however-Carl Pinders fat legs, which looked so comical that they were no doubt hoping our players would be too busy laughing to play.His bright orange jersey was a sight as well.
After about fifteen minutes we were 2-0 up, the situation was looking hopeless for the Managers,when onto the field leapt Mark Jones,in his tie,to try and salvage the situation. Despite the fact he later changed into sporting attire, there must have been something wrong with his trainers because he spent a fair proportion of the game on his bottom.
There was a certain amount of jeering and hollering between the two sets of "fans", with riots being threatened, although we had the advantage because we had a bin full of cans near our seats. Unfortunately I had to leave along with Claudia and Pete Wankowicz a few minutes before the end,but by then the score was five-nil to the workers and the result was beyond doubt.
