Welcome to the BUFC Fantasy Football League

Last years winner Paul Jones scraped home by the the skin of his teeth, thanks only to Man United boring their way to a record 19th title, and Jonesy’s 1st. Can he last the distance this year? or will there be a new contender? Will the old guard of Frosty or Wayno rediscover past glories and make a challenge? Or will the new and improved 3rd and 4th teams produce something astonishing ? Does anyone in the 1st team even own a pc ? and will the 2nd team even bother to turn up ?

In what promises to be an enthralling contest. Will Van Persie manage to last a season?, will Torres ever score again (the c**t)?, will Charlie Adam even get a game?, will Aston Villa or Blackburn finally put us out of our misery and join West Ham in Div 1. Will Nani cry during a game ? Will Rooney’s new flowing locks enable him to sleep with a woman not old enough to be his Granny ? Will Spurs choke again, just like old times, and will Mancini continue to complain his team are not quite ready. Will Chelsea…ah, who cares..

” lets do it for the team, the boys need me”…….. as i pack the bag
for the game i play the sound track to motivate me to play after
watching the game against Queens park”

“guess who’s back Paddy’s back, at the
back, at the back, at the back….. another clean sheet”

starting Team..
Cakes
Paul – Sammy – Paddy – Michael on its own
Mr.Tropicana – Michael Michael – Simba – Richie – The future king
Chris

Very windy day in Eastern Suburbs and to my surprise the match is on
as the pitch didnt get blown away even though it looks like a mine
field in the middle east….
Line up was called late by Eddie and had a few people guessing if they
are starting due to the well…. i dont need to say anymore… piss
poor performance a few weeks ago….
Michael Michael and Bren get the nod so instead of listening to the
ritual confidence shattering team talk from Eddie… they run around
the pitch with an imaginary ball hoping to reinact a goal for the
game!!!

Ref means business today…he summons both teams to center circle to
highlight that he has never got an offside wrong in his career and he
has a bag full of yellow cards for any cheeky pup who wishes to take
him on…..

Off we go….. Great start by BUFC and attacks are a plenty but not
quite troubling the Pink collared goalkeeper…….
Defence looking older than before and Dunbar sneak down the left
indicating they know Michael is not a real left full and most likely
the oldest beating him a whipping a telling crosss!!!! Tom pulls off a
point blank save putting his entire body to the limit and keeps the
scores at nil……followed by a finger tip save onto the crossbar….
BUFC under pressure but the wind isnt helping to clear our lines…..

Midfield start to dominate with Simba and richie pushing forward with
Future king really showing signs of his old tricks……… Birchie
collects the ball inside our own half and takes on Dunbar single
hand-idly, step over and shimmy… makes to edge and then drags the
ball wide……

After a few attacks and Richie breaks forward and shoots low……
keeper seems to have it and as we all retreat for the long kick…..
GOAL GOAL…. seems like the keeper has rolled into the net with the
ball and 1-0 to BUFC….. the referee is surrounded by players……
“OG OG OG ref no way did we score” to my astonishment the BUFC players
were trying every angle to make sure Richie didnt get the
credit……. must have shagged someones missus at the weekend for
that to happen……????

Game on…. Enter the wee wing magician Danny (rumour has it that he
actually fractured his shoulder whilst txting eddie during his own
personal 50km run instead of team training”
After another good attack from Chris Danny sneaks into the box to tap
in the 2nd just on the whistle…..
Half time – 2-0 BUFC

Second Half
Strong wind still about and might need it to help across the line today…..
We start off very well continuing to attack and Chris continues to
torment the Dunbar back line with his close control and tidy skills…
Danny makes it 3-0 nil after a yell for offside and adds to account
for the season…..
Game seems to be safe and Eddie makes a few changes to rest the
legs……. with that the Referee yells out loud ” welcome back… we
missed you ” its the return of the Referees player of the season
Nick…..
Into the midfield the hammer goes and straight away gets stuck into
Dunbar…. Simba takes a knock to the ankle might be sore one and
replaced by Consy…. immediate impact once again with his silky
swagger of the hips mesmerizing the Dunbar and supplying our front
line….
After a record number attempts or hacks at goal (20 shots . 10 with
left and 10 with right) nick marks his return with a goal……only
for it to called another OG thanks to the Dunbar keeper….
Tom’s busy afternoon in goal continues as he once again shows his
masterful shot stopping and helps keep the clean sheet intact…..

Full time whistle comes and its a relief for all.. 3 points

Well done lads a fantastic effort and great result that puts us back
up the top of the table…..

MOM – Cakes for his fine saves
Mentions: Chris for good job up front – Danny for 2 goals – The future
King for showing signs of returning to form

Ciara: “Daddy are they really lions??”
Daddy: ” No Ciara they are not real lions???….. they are 2nd from bottom lions and shouldn’t be any danger not like a real lion from the jungle”

Ciara: ” Daddy, where is Rab and nick?? and why arent you playing”
Daddy: “Rab and Nick are away on holidays and Daddy’s leg is sore but getting better”
Ciara: ” so who is going to play at the back… Daddy does the owner of Tropicana play in your team”
Daddy: “no Ciara thats Brendan”

22mins
Ciara:” oooohhh Daddy the lion has scored, thats not good”
Daddy: “no Ciara not good at all”
0-1
41min
Ciara: “yyiiippppeeee Paul has scored”
Daddy: “no Ciara..Paul cant score, he cant run that far….. thats an own goal, thats when the other team helps the other team get back into the game”
1-1
Ciara:” im bored the match is making me sleepy im off to the park where people talk to each other and have fun, your team are very sad and very brutal, except jason he stands on the line he must be good”

——HALF TIME——-

Daddy: ” Ciara, Ciara you ready to finish the report 2nd half about to start”
Ciara: “aahhhh ok if i have to”

Ciara: ” Daddy that same lion has scored again…he beat Mr.Tropicana and their no.7 crawls through like baby and he score…bboooooooo ”
1-2
Eddie: ” you f@#%* wee s#@t, f$%@n Fannies”
Ciara: ” Daddy, eddie not happy his face very red…oh so is his hair….. is he on fire??”
Ciara:” Daddy, tom is in the net again picking up the ball.. why is he licking it… is that football made of chocolate….???”
Daddy:” no ciara is not chocolate, tom just being silly and might be hungry”
1-3

——Match reporter had to be sent to the playground as the language was starting to become somewhat inappropriate….—–

1-4
1-5
Queens Park no.7 has been a torment all the day for the makeshift back 4 as for the midfield not sure what time they arrived if they did!!!
Good to see Andy return to spear head the attack but not to be this sunny sunday….
I believe that Frank’s presence on the sideline wasn’t enough and maybe he is going soft at training….

MOM: don’t believe we had one that stood out..

Ciara did mention that the girl in our team with the white boots was very fast!!! Chris i believe that would be you…
