Last Friday I went to a quiz night and this week I am feeling a bit sore.
It is on my side and I don't know why it is tender. Hopefully, I will pass
the fitness test this Friday. I fancy linking up with Spizz up front since the young lad
specialises in leading the attack. I realise that in six-a-side terms this
is close to goal hanging.
Anyway, I hope to be more effective than recently when I have been really
hit by my lack of pace. I also need to get into the spaces, which hurt the
opposition, rather than trundle up and down the right. There has been a slight
tendency for some of the younger players not to pass to me. Hopefully, they
will pass to me in the end.

I did'nt spend too long in goal last Friday!!
We missed Spizz's silky skills last week but we got up to twelve. Kevin turned up after a long spell away and produced his typical powerhouse performance. Big Ian said he was getting slow and old but I am giving Kevin over 20 years.
I played a steady game as right back and the final score was 2-2. Alan said they had the stronger side but Big Sam also hit the post for us. We let in the equaliser right
at the end, which gave us no time to come back into it. For their side Tony played really well and Steve had a strong game.

I had a bit of a boring game last week.
For the past couple of weeks we have been struggling to get numbers.
Thankfully, we have been helped by a few ringers. However, the problem of playing with youngters is that they show you up without trying. For instance, Sam is a midfield dynamo. Nani and Mohammed have got that skill, which we have long forgotten, of keeping the ball down when shooting from long distance. So, we have to balance the sides between the old croaks and the young blades.
On Friday, the sides were fine tuned a couple of times and I ended up in goal for a long time. I could have come out but it is not really fair for the youngsters, who are helping us out, to go in goal. Hopefully, better luck this Friday.
Spizz could not make it but the last game he played I think he got three or four goals. He is a real goalmouth predator.
