Most memorable game played in

Back when I lived in Birmingham I played for a team called Halas Hawks, we were 3-0 down and I was brought on as sub and managed to score 4 goals to win the game

Biggest highlight of football career so far

Not sure what the joke was for this group of Northop Hall players, but some ended up falling over themselves laughing. Courteney is relatively calm in the front row (second right)
