David Speedie saw red today and got himself and Ally Mauchlen sent off in the Central Masters final in Nottingham.

City had made a great start in the group stages of this year's tournament, beating Derby 5-0 and F*&@$£ 3-0. They then lost 2-1 to Cov but were already through to the final.

City's team consisted of:

1. Mark Wallington
2. Paul Ramsey
3. Steve Walsh
4. Gary Parker
5. Ally Mauchlen
6. Ooh Tommy Wright
7. David Lowe
8. Allan parris
9. Tony Spearing
10. Kevin Russell

Manager - Alan Birchenall

The final started badly, with City conceding an early goal. Soon it was 2-0, and then all hell broke loose. A shocking challenge by Speedie on Ally Mauchlen wouldn't have been out of place on an ice hockey rink as Speedie clattered Ally into the side boards.

Ally retaliated with a neat headbut and the two of them went at each other. Both were sent off. City pulled a goal back, but in the last couple of minutes conceded another 2, to lose 4-1.

A much better showing than last year though, with a stunning performance by David Lowe, and goal of the tournament from Garry Parker, showing he's not lost his touch as he chipped the keeper.
