Riversdale annual Legends Day on Saturday June 22nd saw a good turnout of past players, friends and Committee members of Riversdale SC.
Some ageing 'legends' participated in the now-obligatory 'kick and giggle' as a curtain raiser to the Reserves game, followed by a bbq lunch with some additional 'legends' too squeamish to have a kick. This was followed up by recreating some of the former atmosphere of the 'Railway side' as we cheered on the Seniors against league leaders Croydon City. Despite having a player sent off in the first minute (amid claims that "that wouldn't have even been a yellow in our day!") the Dales were the better team on the day and unlucky not to get a win, with the game finishing in a creditable 0-0 draw for our lads.
Of course, the fine performance was entirely due to the cheering from the Railway side legends!... Hope to see you all back next year!
