"From there it was on to Nottingham to play against Heanor Town FC in a charity match. The anticipation was even higher tonight than for our first two games, knowing we were going to be playing against professionals. These are players with aspirations of moving up and on to higher leagues. It was very high-paced and hard tackling, which was really intense. They had a lot of fans that were there who supported them through and through, and we countered with our own students (including the Sig Eps) who traveled with us from Harlaxton - hearing those guys sing the UE fight song and the national anthem made it feel like we were at home - this is the kind of atmosphere that we need to bring back to McCutchan Stadium. We lost the match, 4-2, but it seemed like we had the better of the play at times and was a positive game overall as it proved we could play at this level."

Compliment or what? Especially to the fans.
