PHOENIX Force from Cirencester were unable to repeat last season's good run in the National Over 60s competition, writes Peter Mitchell.
It was the unfancied Bristol City side which sprang a surprise result at the Gloucestershire County Qualifier held at Inside Football Brimscombe earlier this month.
Bristol City won all three of their games and advanced to the South West regional finals at the expense of Phoenix Force, Malmesbury and Abbeymead Rovers.
Results:
Abbeymead Rovers 0 Bristol City 3; Phoenix Force 2 Malmesbury 2; Bristol City 3 Malmesbury 0; Abbeymead Rovers 0 Phoenix Force 2; Bristol City 1 Phoenix Force 0; Abbeymead Rovers 0 Malmesbury 1.
