Don't Play With (Football) Matches Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

colincorgi: Our new GZ has been torn down because of construction on the new train line, so sadly I think it is time for this mystery to go. Thanks to the original CO for entrusting us with the cache, and apologies to the recent solvers who will not have a chance to find it.
