A match report from Gooner Simon, a critique of the losing team and "Sweet Home Alabama".
Missing poor old Spizz was still absent
but might come back according to rumours.

I missed a sitter last week!!
Last week I missed a sitter, which could have earned us a creditable 5-5 draw. We had
eight versus seven. Their main defensive trio had a combined age of around 150 being challenged by three players totalling 99 years. I was a bit of the pace after a long
lay-off. Apparently, Spizz is still retired.
For us Alex led the play while Stevie A. and little Sam were the stars of the show for them. Gashead Simon tried to rate himself at six and then give six-a-half for Stevie A, who scored two goals. Unfortunately, I was in goal for three of their goals.
I can't remembering Alex and Ross doing their stint in goal but I could be corrected on this. For them Big Dave A. had a sore ankle and a new player Matt, who was later injured, shared the goalkeeping duties. I thought Big Ian was quite good in midfield
for them while Boro Dave did some mazy dribbles and flicks as well as scoring a neat
goal.
I am going to have to work on my fitness and wear something bright orange so that the boys can see me in terms of passing to me. Even though we had the extra man, Big Dave said in the pub that we were pretty disorganised.

I have been hit by injury!!
Sorry for the lack of blogs but I have been hit by injury!!
Gashead Simon is also a bit like Bill Shankley, who famously never
talked to injured players. So I am not getting any TLC from the
manager.
So I have missed Spizz for the year
so far. I have especially missed his insight into the trials and tribulations of Aston Villa. That is not exactly true because he is a Villa fan through and
through whatever cruel fate throws at the club. It will be interesting
to see if Darren Bent is the answer to the problem.
