On Saturday 28th October the Linfield 16s NIFL squad travelled to play Fivemiletown FC at the Valley stadium in the NIBFA cup. A moment of local history awaited, as the match was the last to be played on the grass surface, before a redevelopment into a 3G arena.
The match was a competitive encounter, played in good spirts, with the young Blues progressing to the next round.
A big thank-you to Ian Adams, Paul Elliott and Gary Noble who organised a superb spread for all the players and parents after the match.
Linfield FC would like to take this opportunity to wish Fivemiletown FC every success on the redevelopment of their ground.
