Close...But Not Close Enough

Tonight's game down the Wood featured two changes per side, but the result was the same. The biggest surprise was how close a game the shirt lifters manged too make it. For the first twenty minutes there was only one team in it. The Euro boys played as good as they have ever played, and the biggest surprise was the fact that the MoFo had managed two goals, as we ran riot. Everybody played their part, with a couple of goals exemplifying the quality of play by the men in white. First up was an intricate passing move that featured every member of the team, culminating with a chipped pass too Clogs that was rifled into the top corner on the volley. Surely this couldn't be topped? But in a move that brought too mind the Carlos Alberto goal that clinched the 1970 World Cup for the mighty Brazil side, it was outdone. The move was started by a resurgent Shotgun, who laid off to my good self, before making his move, that was found to perfection via a scintillating slice of interplay between me, Crespo and Clogs, finding him on the edge of the area, where he sold two scoops a shoulder charge before smashing the ball into the opposite corner. Truly magnificent. But with a nine goal cushion, and the Gaylord enemy seemingly vanquished, something strange occurred. A combination of complacency and fatigue gave the penis lovers a glimmer of hope, and in Young Gaz, they found someone to exploit it. Time and again he found the corners to drag the moFo to within three goals. The storm seemed weathered, but a last Herculean push by the usually profligate King Dave resulted in the unthinkable. The knob jockeys had pulled level. But as the saying goes, form is temporary, class is permanent, and so it proved, as the Righteous shook off their torpor, and re-established a three goal cushion that was to prove the final outcome. The clock is ticking for the man loving JMF, as we now hold an eight game advantage, as the year winds towards its conclusion.
