Much
was expected of this top of the table clash between these
two promotion seeking sides, but on this display there was
little evidence to suggest that either team have the guile
or resources needed to survive in the Premier Division next
season.
This was total football at it's worst.
Totally negative and totally crap to watch.
Lacking
in both desire and ability, both teams seemed content to settle
for a draw from as early as the 5th minute, when team captains
"Mad" John MacFadyen and Fourth's Luigi Bampotti
set up a card-school inside the centre-circle.
From
that point on it became a dour midfield tussle into which
both sets of players were inexorably drawn, with two's and
jack's both wild.
A
nil-nil was always on the cards, and most of the crowd who
remained awake had left the stadium before half-time.
Speaking
at the final whistle an upbeat Bampotti seemed happy enough
with the result, saying, "I won over 30 quid in that
last hand."

Manager
PR Lunatico refused to comment on his side's negative tactics
or allegations of match-rigging, saying only that "Ze
playerz are mentally exhausted after the punishing fixture
schedule of two games in two months. I cannot fault them."

"fat
bastard" says Manager
|
Asked
if the team had missed the goalscoring
threat of the transfer listed and out-of-favour Francisco
Muchobelli, an enraged Lunatico stormily announced
that the "fat bastard
'az played 'iz last game for us", seemingly confirming
the rumours that the fat bastard had played his last
game for the club.
If
so, Lunatico will need to move into the transfer market again
soon if his team of "foreign legionnaires" are to
regain the hunger that Muchobelli undoubtedly brought to his
side.
