Well done lads, great to reach a final for the first time since we started a menβs team.
Saturdays line-up for the @NRFLOfficial MacMillan Bowl Semi-Final against Linthorpe FC. A close 90 mins ended 2-2, with the team then winning 6-5 in the Penalty Shoot-out.
MOM went to Ross Cole in his first game back since November.
Goals came from Louie White & Owen Clarkson.
