Boro recorded their biggest ever victory on Sunday with a 12-0 hammering of Ironside but the match is subject to league authorities after a bizarre ending. A superb team performance which produced easily the best football so far this season was marred by the incident that took place in the 87th minute. After Phillip N’Gbale won a penalty the defender was cautioned and a fellow Ironside player was alleged to have sworn at the referee but refused to walk prompting the referee to abandon the cleanest game of football in memory.
Goals:
1/ Kousso beat his man and sends across a gift for Adam Chandler to tap into the net from 2 yards.

9/ A great run on the left by Nathan results in Butt taking the ball off his toes to turn inside the defender and slam a shot past the keeper at his near post from 10 yards.
10/ The move of the match starts with Andy who plays in N’Gbale and after beating his man on the right he squares for Deegan to take a touch and fire home in an instant.
