Queen's Flair Met With Lincoln Resilience As Title Goes To Final Day
9th March 2010 23:32 | by James Kelly
In radiant March sunshine, the two dominant teams of the JCR Second Division took to the pitch, knowing that victory for either would almost certainly guarantee a unique double promotion (owing to impending league restructuring). With both teams having played 11 games prior to the fixture and deadlocked on 30 points and +26 goal difference, it is surely the tightest JCR league since records began. The pre-match talk was dominated by the “will they, won’t they shake hands” controversy between skippers Hardman and Thomasson after an incident of a personal nature, which cannot be discussed due to a High Court super-injunction.

Randall's report
10th February 2010 09:20 | by Simon RandallThe Centaurs belied their lowly place in the BUSA league with a well-fought win over the Old Centaurs in the Duncan Mulholland Memorial Game on 6 Feb.

After a hat-trick in the corresponding fixture last year, the stand-out performer in the first half was the Centaurs’ Bruno Versail... (more)
Late Winner keeps Mulholland memorial Trophy in Oxford
9th February 2010 13:54 | by Jack HazzardA wonderful gathering of Duncan Mulholland's friends and family saw the current Centaurs score a late winner to secure a 2-1 victory over the Old Boys in a close encounter.
A strong old boys line-up from across the years, including many who played alongside and under Duncan, refused to be intimidated by an extremely professional looking warm-up from the current intake, the fact they had a manager in a suit jacket, or pre-match battery related camera problems and started brightly, no doubt inspired by a rousing pre-match team talk from Skipper McMahon which involved listing the team and then standing there in silence.
Centaurs legend Tom Brown looked bright and sprightly in his first game for 11 months and showed glimpses of the old pace up top and was unlucky with an attempted lob ... (more)
