  The Dumpsters once again piled into the red Ferrari for the journey to Wandsworth, this time it was the unfortunate Felix 'Pussy' Baker who was crammed into the 4-man back seat line up, and he spent the entire journey hiding from the police and examining Fraggle and Spal's testicles. The team had decided to leave early to enable a proper warm up on the spare pitches, but it apparently had little positive effect in the early stages.

First Half
Things started fairly poorly for the Dumpsters as usual, in a high tempo, low quality affair. Some dreadful marking allowed Chelsea Youth to take the lead, only for Spal to level things up shortly afterwards with a close range effort. The Dumpsters failed to stay in the game however, and some comical defending left keeper Fraggle exposed, after the ball was given away from a Dumpsters freekick with everyone stranded upfield. Chelsea Youth finished with ease and the boys were reeling.

The flow of the game was being regularly disrupted by the referee, who continually gave throw-ins the wrong way and was taken in by the diving antics of the opposition, who fell on the floor at the slightest contact. Chelsea Youth's resident psycho was also in full voice, urging his team to do the dirty throughout.

Things then went from bad to worse as a third goal was conceded. Chelsea Youth found themselves with a 2 on 1, and as Pussy slid in to try and clear the pass across the face of goal he sliced the ball wildly into his own net, leaving the Dumpsters trailing 3-1 at half time. A confrontation then ensued between the dreadful ref and Dumpters hot-head Tim 'Ferret' Preston, who was enraged by the officials bizarre decision making. After a stern warning the game finally resumed.


Second Half
With a two goal deficit to recover, it was never going to be easy for the Dumpsters, but a more organised display at the back, and a bit of fighting spirit saw the team come back to earn a draw. Pussy slotted home to bring the score back to 3-2, before Spal used his usual poaching instincts to level things up. With both teams tiring the game drifted, the only highlight being a flare up between Martin 'Allergies' Dibble and the Chelsea Youth psycho, who looked determined to get involved in some sort of fracas before the day was out.

The final whistle brought another confrontation between Ferret and the ref, but it was an argument that was never going to be resolved, and eventually Anal Bead was dragged away to the team coach as the ref claimed he could have been red carded on at least two occasions. Quite how is a mystery, as Ferret hadn't even conceded a free kick, despite his best efforts.
  
To The Pub
With revision still to be done, and nursing the usual hangovers, the trip to the pub was again abandoned.
