TREGONY 5 ROYAL PAR 0 (Sunday Cup Quarter Final)

Half-time 3-0

Royal Par travelled to Tregony to play in the quarter final of the Sunday Cup. It was cold and wet and the pitch was spongey.

Tregony boasted pace, youth, fitness, stylish kit, supporters, organisation and proper water bottle carriers.

Royal Par had... plenty of years under the straining belt.

If these teams were cars, this was a BMW M2 Coupe versus a Vauxhall Chevette (with Wayne - Waynetta sun visors and fluffy dice).

Luckily for Royal Par, the Tregony M2 spent the first 32 minutes performing donuts for the crowds pleasure. Then they scored. Three times.

 

The Royal Par half-time was spent with a generous greasing of the ball joints, slight re-arrangement to the tracking (wheels were pointing the wrong way) and a good wipe of the mud flaps.

A much improved performance in the second provide a couple of decent scoring opportunities for Royal which weren't taken.

Tregony responded in the last ten minutes with a victory lap of two goals.

Notable performances came from David Holley who defied his years with some amazing cat-like goalkeeping and Ryan Morcom who was captain marvel.

 

The Tregony lads were absolute gentlemen throughout the whole process and it was a joy to fall on their sword. We wish them all the best in the semi-final.

The food and hospitality afterwards was first class with a delicious curry and naan bread and big comfy sofa's for our very, very old and aching bones.....

This was not FIFA on the Xbox. This was real.
