Champions Tuesday (15.3.11)

As has become tradition over the past couple of seasons, Tuesday night's fed event was the Champions Tuesday Quick Play. The second to last event of the season, time was really running out to make an impression on the final fed table, and with the CFA more than 70 points ahead, the DFA had no choice but to go all out if they want the prize of an extra £1m next season.

The Semi Finals saw not one CFA'er, giving the DFA a golden chance to narrow the gap with Oldland Rangers and Thoule United there to represent. They were joined by EFA's Jazz FC and surprisingly - and refreshingly - an RFA'er in the shape of Glasgows Green n White. The level 2 side gave Thoule United a good game, eventually losing 4-2 in extra time, despite going 2-0 up. Joining Thoule United in the Final was Jazz FC, cruelly beating Oldland Rangers with a Grégory Diagouraga 92nd minute goal.

It was yet another ridiculously close Final, with the scores level at 1-1 after 90 minutes, then also level at 120 minutes 2-2. The proceeding shootout saw 10 different players from each side step up to the spot, with the final score ending 5-4 in favour of the EFA's Jazz FC.
