Nail Biter

Bufon. Banks. Schmicheal. Yashin. Shilton. Euro Bri. That's what it seemed, as possibly the greatest ever display of goal keeping ever seen down the Wood repelled all attempts by the nefarious JMF to breach his goals. The fingertip save of a dead eye Exocet bound for the top corner drew gasps of amazement, even from Jamon, who thinks everything the righteous do is pure luck. But just as my shift was about to end, it all went Ryan Green. A powder puff curler from Crespo seemed destined to easily collected from the cat like Euro, but he made the school boy error of throwing the ball before it was under control, and slipped through his fingers and apologetically crossed the line. Did it prove to be crucial to the result? Yes, as the game finished dead locked at around nine a piece. Still it was probably a fair result, as both sides put in maximum effort, and ti lose by one goal would have been cruel to either side. The game, as is the normal at the moment, was a tightly fought affair, but instead of one side breaking away from the other, it remained with in a single score for the entirety of the match. But is a draw enough for the current title holders? It isn't the death of their retention hopes, but victories are what is required if they are not to have another appointment with photo shop and a gay conga line. Eight down with a maximum of 11 games left, means a Herculean effort will be required to overturn the Righteous lead.
