Match 7 – 12th January 2005: John's Bitches v Jack Flash
Bitchslapped by John on the Windy Astros
Taking place in cold conditions, heightened by terrible cross-winds, this game wasn't going to be easy for either side. Wisdom IT keeper Andy and striker Danny turned out for this late morning encounter. Jack Flash started the best against a resilient Bitches defence with Ed Green turning well on the ball and slotting it away for an early advantage. Soon, however, JB had equalised. It took a belting finish from Mark to restore the advantage to Jack Flash, running on to a cross, which took a deflection from John, the striker hit the bouncing ball at pace, sending it flying into the net. This was to be the last goal Jack Flash scored, after the interval John's bitches came back with an equaliser and finally an Own Goal from Ed Green sealed the tie, sending Jack Flash down to 7th. Most notable chances were Mark's effort which hit the post, only for him to send the ball back into the other upright. The Bitches goalkeeper had to make a spectacular save late on as a great flick on from Ed Green was struck sweetly towards the top corner by Piers. A good performance by Andy kept Jack Flash in the game until the end of the second twenty.

Match 6 – 2nd December 2004: Jack Flash v Isoc United
I-socked a Killer Punch
In this close encounter, it was the rapid counter attacking of 4th place Isoc United which undid the Jack Flash defence. The Flash began well, taking the lead early on, but some poor marking was punished with some swift, flowing moves from the Isoc boys. Ending the year on a low, the team remain optimistic about their chances of reaching the plate.

Cup Match Round 1 – 1st December 2004: Jack Flash v The Five Bellies
Don't Judge a Team By Their Name
A disappointing result here, Jack Flash seriously underestimating the capabilities of the opposition from their name and league position. A hard fought game ended in a loss for the Flash, with only Piers getting on the scoresheet.
