Reports on: "The 2009 Cup"

Crossbar Challenge videos!!!!

Not sure Soccer AM will be calling up many of these guys very soon but thanks to everyone for entering into the spirit of the night and giving us a good laugh.

The Photos – grins, grimaces and gurns…

Here’s some highlights of the night – time to put your egos to one side… The full set of photos is on Facebook (link in this report) – if you want hi-res copies, just let us know.

The Results in full!

Well done to everyone who took part in this year’s competition – a cracking night – roll on 2010! Congratulations to Times Online, commiserations to The Telegraph and, erm, Yahooligans: your spoon is in the post…

Scout Report: ids

Our scout sees promise in these young ambitious chaps (as the sales house for Setanta Sports, football is in their blood) but the final line-up shows stiff competition – what do the ids squad have to say for themselves?

Scout Report: JCDecaux

Smooth, confident, courageous and of French origins… are we talking about Zidane? Cantona? Deschamps? Nope, Decaux.

Scout Report: Newsquest Media Sales

Newsquest Media Group: the 2nd largest regional media group in the UK …so one would think that it shouldn’t be hard to find 7 football players of some reasonable standard. Are the Newsquest boys as passionate about the beautiful game as they are about delivering to their 4,000+ advertisers?

Scout Report: Clear Channel

Last year’s triumphant winners, Clear Channel are looking strong and ready to give the rest of the pack a run for their money. Will the confident headless chicken strategy do them justice a second year running?

Scout Report: Titan Outdoor

A solid team last year, but with shaky luck on the day, losing in the Plate final to BBC Magazines – their battle cry was “Remember the Titans!” – will they perform more memorably this year?

Scout Report: Yahoo!

New to this year’s tournament are the self-professed Yahooligans from Yahoo! – confident and courageous it seems – is this an indication of their talent or is it simply because they’ve not met the competition before?
