Morrisons charity football match raises £832

The weather was awful, but Sunday night’s charity football match at Spartans between the two local Morrisons stores still raised an impressive £832.76

The match result? On an evening better suited to water polo Ferry Road beat their Granton Waterfront rivals 4 – 0!
