In June, the most eagerly anticipated derby match in Scottish history * finally happened as the stars aligned and Glasgow Mens Roller Derby and Granite City Brawlers finally faced off... in Dundee.

This was a closed game arranged at short notice in preparation for anticipated MEQ appearences for both teams, and was a tight affair throughout. The end result was a narrow win for GCB, but the real reward for the hard fought game was the promise of more games against GMRD in the future.
