BOB – 3 Manhattan Kickers – 5 If ever there was a game of two halves, this was it. The Old Boys bowed out of the State Cup after being unrecognizable in the first half – the faces were the same, but the football being played by them was nowhere near the standard we’d become used to. A combination of sloppy play and basic mistakes made the Kickers look good and by half-time they were

BOB - 3 NY Dinamo - 2 The Old Boys put in a brilliant battling performance Sunday to hand top of the table Dinamo just their second loss of the season. The result was all the more remarkable given the diabolical showing from the Barnstonworth goalkeeper, doing his best to deny us victory.
