Well I finally played in The Big Match yesterday. Despite being 1-0 up at half-time, my team went down 4-2 in the end. It was a brilliant and emotional day, and I think Gavin would have been proud of us all. We managed to raise £8,000 for charity, which is pretty gobsmacking.
Personal highlights for me were: being one of only two outfield players from my team playing a full 90 minutes; making a mazy run down the wing in the second half from defence; and captaining the team in the second half once our skipper was substituted.
