Group C was rocked by news 2 days before the event that Slepi Kone, (Runners up at the 2007 Prague Masters) had to withdraw due to illness that had swept amongst the Slepi Kone side. Rumours that Slepi Kone had employed the former Tottenham Hotspur chef have been unconfirmed!!

The withdrawal of such a quality side could only help the other Group C teams - Dogshead FC, Southampton Muppets and Brazil United. Teams in this group would play each other twice to compensate for the lack of a 4 th team.

Dogshead FC, who would play back-to-back, quickly swept to the top of the group on 6 points beating Southampton Muppets and then Brazil United, both by scores of 3-0. Luke Bramner, the key player for Dogshead FC with 3 goals in 2 games. It already emerged that Southampton Muppets and Brazil United would be fighting for 2 nd place and qualification for the Cup.

All eyes were then on pitch A, as the 2 sides met in the first of their encounters. It's not often you can say this but Southampton beat Brazil 3-1 and took the initiative for 2 nd place. Kevin Connolly the Brazil United scorer whilst Pete Snelling and Paul Edwards (x2) notched for the Muppets.

The two teams would meet again in the next game. They would meet in “The Cage!!” This game proved a much closer affair with Marc McHale of Southampton Muppets scoring the only goal. Southampton Muppets joined Dogshead at the top of the league on 6 points albeit having played one game more with the teams due to meet in the final game of the group.

Dogshead FC had their game in hand at the top against Brazil United. The game went to form and Dogshead raced into a 2-0 lead. Then, Kevin Connolly brought the score back to 2-1 but Dogshead powered away again with three further goals meaning the result was never really in doubt. Brazil United were now confined to 3 rd and a place in the Plate.

With Southampton Muppets and Dogshead both already qualified for the Cup the only matter left to decide would be who would have the glory of topping the group and earning a preferential tie in the Quarter Final draw.

Southampton Muppets needed to win by 6-0 to top the group due to Dogshead's vastly superior goal difference. Those hopes quickly went out of the window though as Dogshead FC swept aside their challengers with a 4-0 victory. They finished as clear group winners and many believed them to be one of the favourites to go on and win the entire tournament. Luke Brammer scored twice to take his tally for the tournament to 6 goals. This left him only one behind current top scorer Richard Worr of AMG.
