New Year starts with defeat


7 January 1996, Division Seven at Shrewsbury Road

KMLC FC 2 v AFC Purton 5

Hard to tell if this is a post-Highworth Ten performance as the Kylies had gone down to Purton 4-2 at Braden Forest in October.

Big Al was in goal which could mean that Garratt was nursing a hangover as he did not make the squad. Al got MVP too so the team were clearly under the cosh in this third league defeat of the season.
