Wembley Stadium - Attendance 90,000

A packed house at Wembley to see the third straight PCMT Final between old rivals Aardvark Abacus and Boston Rock. Ady's team, smarting from two straight PCMT Final defeats were fired up from the off and had Sheriff's men on the back foot after just 11 minutes.

Aaron Hughes doesn't get many but he headed in a Simon Davies corner to give the Aardvarks the ideal start. It took Boston Rock an hour to get a foothold in the game and they were level when Andy Carroll, one of the signings of the season surely, equalised with a header.

That set up a nervy finale with neither team looking like making a breakthrough but it was Boston Rock's Rio Ferdinand who notched the deciding clean sheet and delivered a fourth successive Paul Cartmell Memorial Trophy to his grateful manager.

Hats off to Sheriff, commiserations Ady.
