Fishermen v Firemen...15 photos from the Boxing Day football match in Scarborough

The Fishermen v Firemen charity football match is one of Scarborough's oldest and best loved Boxing Day traditions.

This year, the crowds turned out to watch the two teams fight it out on South Bay, backed by a comic band. The match was started by Mayor Hazel Lynskey. It was the turn of the Fishermen, dressed in white, to take home the gold cup which was presented by sporting legend Dickie Bird.
