Let's give this week's Man of the Match winners the recognition they deserve! 👇🔥

🟥 ALEX LOVE | DIABETICO MADRID
💥 BIG THREAT UPFRONT!
As always, Alex was causing problems! 😈 A constant threat going forward and someone the opposition struggled to contain all game long.
The defenders probably won't be wanting to see him again anytime soon! 😂💪
Another quality performance from Alex! 👏

🟦 SIMON ELLIS | CHOLESTEROL PALACE
⚡ TIRELESS AS EVER!
Another relentless display from Simon saw him finally reap the rewards this week!
All that hard work was topped off with a well-earned goal ⚽️🔥

Well played, Simon! 👏

🟨 SPENCER BAXENDALE | OZEMPIACOS
🧹 BREAKING THINGS UP!
Spencer was absolutely everywhere! 💪
Breaking things up, covering huge amounts of ground and making sure Ozempiacos kept ticking.
The kind of performance that might not always grab the headlines, but makes a massive difference to the team.
Brilliant shift, Spencer! 👏🔥

🟩 BYRON HUGHES | WIDER BREMEN
🧱 ALL-ROUND PERFORMER!
Solid at the back ✅
Linked up the midfield ✅
Covered the ground ✅
And still managed to pose an attacking threat! ✅
Byron put in a proper all-round performance, contributing all over the pitch and showing exactly why he's such a valuable player for Wider Bremen.
Top stuff, Byron! 👏💪

⬛️ NICK FITZGERALD | CHEWVENTUS
🎯 HOLD-UP PLAY + A GOAL!
Nick was brilliant at controlling and holding the ball up, bringing others into play and creating chances for Chewventus.
And he wasn't just creating them...
⚽️ HE GOT ON THE SCORESHEET TOO!
A complete attacking performance and thoroughly deserved MOTM recognition.
Great game, Nick! 🔥👏

⚽️ THE GOAL MACHINE!
When Inter Pieami needed someone to make things happen, Joe was there!

Last night delivered another cracking round of games, with goals flying, teams battling right until the final whistle and, most importantly, another huge effort off the pitch! 👏⚽️

⬜️ INTER PIEAMI 9-13 CHEWVENTUS ⬛️
Pitch: ⬜️ 2-1 ⬛️
A proper battle between these two! 🔥 While Chewventus took the overall win, Inter Pieami fought back on the pitch to take the 2-1 victory. Brilliant effort from both sides! 💪

🟦 CHOLESTEROL PALACE 8-5 DIABETICO MADRID 🟥

Ozempiacos were on fire! 🔥 A massive 19-11 overall victory, followed by a hard-fought 1-0 pitch win. Wider Bremen battled all the way, but the Yellows had too much on the night! 💛

⚖️ THE NUMBERS THAT REALLY MATTER
👏 81% ATTENDANCE
📉 60% OF THE CLUB LOST WEIGHT
🔥 OVER 16KG LOST IN ONE WEEK!

That's what this is all about.
Every weigh-in, every step, every food diary, every game and every decision made during the week is adding up. 16kg+ gone in ONE WEEK is absolutely brilliant! 💪🔥

🏆 AMAZING LOSER OF THE WEEK 🏆

🔥 DAN LOVE 🔥

WELCOME BACK, DAN! 👊

After 2 months out injured, Dan could quite easily have lost momentum.
Instead, he stuck with the programme, stayed committed and came back absolutely flying! 💪

⚖️ 5.7KG LOST! 🤯🔥

And as if that wasn't enough...
⚽️ HE BAGGED A GOAL ON THE PITCH TOO!
What a way to return! Welcome back, Dan. That's some comeback! 👏👏

🎩 THE HAT-TRICK CLUB IS GROWING!

A massive 11 lads are now smashing their hat-trick targets! 🎯🎩

Myself, Coach Jon and Emma from Rotherham United Community Trust were incredibly lucky to be invited down to Westminster with MANvFAT to celebrate a truly amazing milestone.

Together, the MANvFAT community has now lost over one million pounds in weight.

Think about that for a second… one million pounds.

It’s an incredible achievement, but behind that number are thousands of individual stories, men making changes, improving their health, building confidence and supporting each other every single week.

And to be there in Westminster, surrounded by people who have all played a part in that journey, was a really special experience.

We’re incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved here at MANvFAT Rotherham, and even more proud of the lads who continue to turn up, put the work in and keep pushing themselves.

Here’s to the next million!

🏆🔥 MAN OF THE MATCH | CUP ROUND 3 🔥🏆

Friday night brought another set of cracking performances, and now it's time to give the six Man of the Match winners the recognition they deserve! 👏⚽

🟦 SIMON ELLIS | CHOLESTEROL PALACE
An absolute handful up front! 💪 Simon put in an industrious shift, causing problems throughout the game and creating plenty of chances. Unlucky not to come away with a hatful of goals, but a thoroughly deserved MOTM! 👏

⬜ IAN TAYLOR | INTER PIEAMI
A solid defensive performance from Ian. He put the work in at the back, stayed switched on and helped keep the Greens at bay. 🧱 Another important shift for the Whites!

🟥 STUART BROOKS | DIABETICO MADRID
Hard yards? Stuart put them ALL in! 🔥 He never stopped working for the Reds from start to finish. A proper team performance and exactly the kind of effort that deserves recognition. 👏

⬛ TOMASZ PIOTROWSKI | CHEWVENTUS
100% commitment all game! 💥 Tomasz was throwing himself into the action, making key tackles and putting in a serious defensive shift. When the team needed someone to put a foot in, he was there!

🟩 ROB BULL | WIDER BREMEN 🧤
Outstanding between the sticks! 🧱 Rob not only produced an excellent goalkeeping display, but was constantly organising and communicating with the Greens. A commanding performance from start to finish. 👏

🟨 JAMIE ELLIOTT | OZEMPIACOS
The main man. 🎯 Jamie was the constant threat for the Yellows and the target for attack after attack. The opposition knew where the danger was coming from and still couldn't keep him quiet!

🔥 Six players. Six massive performances.

Whether it's scoring the goals, making the tackles, pulling off the saves or simply putting in the miles for the team, these are the performances that make MANvFAT Rotherham what it is.

Well played, lads. 👏👏
