MADRID CONTINUES ITS RUN Unlikely heroes keep our lads in contention

REAL ALE 3                 ASTRA 1

Chris F. 2 Ritchie !!!

My apologies on the delay here, cause as most of you know I now live in cottage country and technology wise they are still behind here by about 5 years or so. Personally I have no clue how Karsten makes his way all the way from Stoufville to come and play with this lot, so I suggest you guys should consider yourself damn lucky he does. Enough about my travels and onto the good stuff. The B squad continues its illustrious run with yet another win and another solid performance. Sure there were little gaffes here and there, but this Astra squad is better then its crappy record might suggest. We exploded early for 2 goals in the first five minutes and had numerous chances after that. Astra made it interesting with a goal, and we made it even interesting on ourselves by picking up a red card ( which I shall divulge into later), but we held on and skyrocket ourselves near the top of the division.

Onto the good stuff……

Good: - l’il Ritchie with a header of a goal!!! I don’t know where he came from or how he got there but, but the kid is one hell of a trooper. The other team was in shock he scored and the ref wanted proof that he did score the goal. He may be little gentlemen, but he certainly plays with a big heart. - Chris is on fire…….. 2 nice goals on this night and now four on the season as he continues to blossom into the beautiful girl…um, I mean….outstanding soccer player he was meant to be. The young’uns are beginning to step up and definitely at the right time. - Ian Newman is awesome. Seriously….this f@cking guy rocks. Team leader, hustler, damn fine booty, always offering sound advice…..the man has it all. - Mark and his incredible super sperm……..congrats going out to Mark and Jen as word has come there is a bun in the oven. Mark doesn’t remember doing this and has filed a class action suit against Jen for taking advantage of him when he was drunk. Bad: - Paul Grimes may be one of the leagues top scorers and a candidate for coach of the year, but don’t expect Gatorade to be signing this potty mouthed player as a spokesperson anytime soon. After a bad play by an Astra lad who decided to continue playing a ball that was out and almost scoring, Senor Grimes unleashed a verbal assault on the player in question. The referee while intervening, decided Paul had gone too far and gave him a straight red for his actions. Paul, feeling that the referee was trying to upstage his stardom, accused the ref of wanting to be a star all the time at Pauls expense. Ego’s collided in the worst way for Madrid as they were forced to play the remaining 25 minutes a man down. Ugly: - not much here….apart from my drive in from buttf@ck nowhere…

Next up….. The lowly Hotspurs coming up, and this team only has 2 goals in eight games. These 2 goals though have both been against us…..go figure. They have given up 78 or so, so the opportunity to run up some personal stats is very great. We need to keep winning, so lets try and keep our overconfidence from biting us in the rear here. It was close last time, and only because we made it that way. ( as Trevor couldn’t finish any of the perfectly 80 crosses I supplied him).
