Never mind the Tyne and Wear derby. Forget about that small game the two Manchester clubs play twice a season. This was the derby to end all derbies - Caedmon Vs Brighton Avenue! A grudge match like never before, the two schools met this evening for the first time in years in a winner takes all showdown (i.e. a friendly!). After such a huge build up, normally the game would disappoint but not in this instance. Despite home advantage in favour of Brighton Avenue, it was our beloved Caedmon that came out victorious winners, 2-1. Ryan Barrass set up Jack Wood in the first half with the boys swapping roles in the second half, Jack setting up Ryan for his first of the school season. Despite some late tension and a goal, the children managed to hang on thanks to some amazing teamwork as well as mind-boggling saves from Joseph 'The Cat' Vickers. All in all, a great evening!

Victory never tasted this sweet!
