The build up to this weeks showdown at Nab Wood, was rocked this week with the substitution of J.M.F weak links Jamon and King Dave for battle hardened veterans Jules and Alfie, turning an already lopsided game into what looked like an inevitable massacre.
Whith the trio of gaylords reduced to the solitary Funky, things looked bad, when Shouty turned up wearing contact lens and took the first shift between the sticks. With a goalkeeping display of Scottish proportions the J.M.F romped to 9-1 score line. His replacent Lefty Mark then had an attack of colour blindness and proceded to throw the ball several times to the guys in red. The result at the end of his goalkeeping turn? 13-3. Little John was next in the firing line and stopped the haemorrhaging, but the improved JMF were relentless in their hunt for goals. only youg gaz putting up any real resistance. 16-6.
Just when a caning of public school proportions seemed inevitable, the JMF seemed to loose momentum, the aformentioned thirst for goals opening spaces at the back for what suddenly looked like the greatsest comeback of all time. Young Gaz and Euro took the game to the JMF dragging the Euro Elite back to whithin a goal, by trying the novel tactic of shooting. It proved infectious, Lefty and Shouty weighed in with a few long range peaches, as the JMF recoiled on the ropes semmingly there for the taking. A mini comeback by the JMF was weathered as the Elite pushed for an equiliser. Arguing broke out amongst the JMF as the boys in white strove for the greatest victory in the history of victories!!!!
Then Dead Eye scored six goals.
Bastard.
Next week see's the welcome return of Lobon to the Euro Elite, while JMF will be without the talismanic Dead Eye, replaced by Alfie. It's time to see just how good the gay brigade really are.
