Initial Conditions

Today Greyfriars Bobby Charlton played FC Farcelona in the Round of 16 of the cup. Unfortunately, despite battling back from two goals down to draw 2-2, thanks to goals from James Cant and Ben Beaumont, the Bobby lost 3-2 on penalties. I took the liberty of recording most of them and putting them up here (video isn’t that great, but I did knock it together in about a half hour, and I’d never done one before!).

One positive though. James Whiteford, who is getting married tomorrow, took his penalty very well. This would be a good chance to say something about it not being the only time he’ll score this weekend, but that would be childish.
