Ben Gilbey believes 2016 could be a big year for FC Team after they registered a famous 2-1 win over high-flying Lions at Rowley Lane.

MLL's plans were hampered after Benji Weinberger fell ill, Will Beresford was injured the day before and Zac Rose forced to miss the first half, which "no doubt contributed to the standard" which they played at to start.

Team bossed the first half and apart from the heroics of Ed Bloom, no-one in a Lions shirt left the field for the break with much credit. MLL were lethargic and pedestrian. So many of the early season lessons that they thought had been learnt were forgotten as strikes from Kane Gilbery, from inside his own half, and Bar Hariely put Team in charge.
