It should have been Shrewsbury but they pulled out after winning their semi yesterday. They've played by the rules and as a result half their squad have injuries. I know some people on here criticised SO'D for pulling out but when the organisers weren't prepared to relax the subs rule, it was the right thing to do.

One thing that Graham Turner, the Shrewsbury boss, pointed out was that the quality of the pitches was very poor. Apparently Holsworthy, where we played on Wednesday, are not allowed to compete in FA competitions because of the standard of their pitch.

It gets better. On the Blackpool site it is reported that they have been awarded the trophy and that they will play Havant & Waterlooville in a 40-mins-each-way friendly at 3pm today. Wonder if the orgainsers will refund those who have pre-booked tickets for the final at £10 a pop?

I'm in the ground and it hasn't been announced. They even had the cheek to charge people to sit down! The Bideford lads on the gate were not happy about not receiving any ticket money from Joma. A total farce from start to finish.

What a joke tournament, I'm now delighted we rolled over and went home! Hopefully this will not take place again, and if it does it needs organising by different people.

This is the link from the Blackpool site:

http://www.blackpoolfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10432~2101626,00.html

Two friends of mine are attending the game. I told them about this before they went in the ground. They asked to see one of the tournament officials and although the official disputed the validity of the story he allowed them to stay in the ground without having to pay.

Latest is that Havant are 2-0 up towards the end of the first half. If they win, it will be interesting to see who holds up the trophy at the end!

Score is 2-2 midway through the second half. I think they'll find a way of ensuring Blackpool win the game, even if on pens.

It's now 3-2 Blackpool. The chancers from Joma will be relieved.

Blackpool \"win\" the match and the trophy. The referee only played 35 minutes in the second half.

Hats off to Mustapha Terayaki and Keith Southern for jointly winning the player of the tournament award. They both share a one year boot deal from Joma. Keith has requested the left boot.
