Old Silhillians IV 1 Stratford V 1
 
Stratford forced a last minute equaliser to grab a desevred point in Solihull. Stratford dominated procedings from the first minute but were continually thwarted by the excellent keeping of the Old Sils 2nd team goalie who was given special dispensation to play. With Emile Sharp-Ruddock continually breaking up all the Old Sils attacks and the revered leadership of Scott Hazell dictating playfrom the back, with Ash Adams and Mark Newman at fullback through the midfield pair of Andrew Townsin and Ed Hogg. Stratford continually pressed but were undone by a rare short corner, past the debuting Sim "Rock God" Ashley in goal.
Despite the continual pressure and excellent running of John Bayliss and Alex Squance on the wings Stratford could find a way through. One Kilham in his last game before returning to South Africa struck a speculative effort through his own legs to force the save of the game. Jack Dudley belying his tender 13 years of age was a continual thorn in the Old Sils side and it was his play that forced the short cornerfrom which Stratford finally got their reward. Ed Hogg's excellent awareness found John Baylissunmarked at the farpost who flicked it home to a great cheer and a deserved point.
