Cside17,
Great job against Norvan.
At least it takes you 16 pints before posting something like that. Biggs had 5............ at max.

I'm definately not going to say too much right now but to comment on cside17 and the 20 shots over the bar. Yes Peg dominated our half in the last 30 min as we were ok with defending our 1 nil lead. A couple of close ones but most were from here there and anywhere. Really was not a worry or significant in the overall game. First 30 minutes of the game Peg. never crossed into our half.
Snnopdog or Canto will come up with some report on behalf of the Malonians but for now I'll be quiet.

Still going hard on this side of town ;D Hot tubbing is done and now it's time for a little wine My computer has recently been installed with a breathalyser so may be my last post tonight. Great game by Coveside and look forward to some trash talk prior to our next game with them. That blonde guy that puts the ball in the net for you, is he ..............

I guess I should wait for our esteemed leader to allow me to post again............... ;D
As Biggs mentioned we controlled most of the first half. Our keeper "Veggie Bobby" got hurt after 20-25 minutes. This totally changed our game strategy (yes we had one). Early in the second half, Malones took a well deserved lead. The same scenario as during our first game against Peg, we tried to defend and keep the 1-0 advantage. 10 seconds to go and what seems to be an innocent turnover gave Peg the equalizer (great shot by the way).
Significant injury: Clemente's left black eye from Malones newbie U.W.M. "No intend = No card" in Bobby Brown's world

cside17, with the season of good will upon us I must congratulate you on a well organised performance today And also let you know that I have just applied to be a contestant on the current extreme makeover sensation " The Swan ". As I love my north shore soccer but these days are finding less room on the pitch than on the floor at a U2 concert, my plans are to return with dread-locks a tan like Karims and possibly a breast reduction if the budget allows it. You must admit football is a funny game , so I take the rough with the smooth and despite being on the receiving end of a good thumping I can admit that I would actually feel a lot worse to be 1 up on Peg. with 3 seconds to go and tie. Well done !! Merry christmas to you and yours

Should be under a different thread but to maintain the flow........... Winged Horses 1, Malones 1 With the "not-so-accurate-record" (Sir M, you forgot to include in that record the 3-2 victory over Peg, in Malones 1st season, yes, I know it goes back to the 01-02 season, but a win is a win) hanging over the heads of the "Melons" or Malonians" or whatever else you like to call us. Cool morning air seemed to inspire the Malonians for the 1st 20 minutes or so. Canto was having his way with JAGS. (JAGS it might be a reflection of who you had playing behind you in the 1st half. Noticed as soon as captain RCMP went there, we could not continue that advantage.) The depleted flying horses, seemed uneasy at times, rather steady Blaizer and Rud, seemed to pass into the briallant white of Malones on several occasions. Not many chances at either end. Biggest highlight of the 1st half was the loss of Malones keeper. 0-0 at half time. Early 2nd, off a turnover, Dr Hibbs, collected the ball and after a goal mouth scramble, and a post, Canto, the frog, hit side netting and a roar from Griffin ensued. Could it be? Was it over? Nope. All Peg the last 20 minutes. Shots from everywhere. None of them close to net. 30 seconds left, and I'm not kidding, turnover at the halfway line, ball placed forward to an unmarked Mike F, and next thing you know, ball hits the back of the net as the alarm goes off on the ref's watch. Kick off, whistle, game over, missed opportunity. JAGS good to see you. Nice chat with garden knome aka dickens cider as well. Where was Bob Jordney? LV on Thursday......not that we want to be like the Flying horses but off to the serengti afterwards.

Snoopdoggydog; By way of clarification: My reporting is not really inaccurate, the 10-0-1 and now 10-0-2 or whatever it is undefeated record against Malones (Malones I say, I only use the word "Melons" when referring to your right midfielder's pectorals) over the past 11 or 12 games or whatever is a reflection of our "modern era" record, ie since FIFA banished the "steps" rule for goaltenders, legislated mandatory shin pads, and the English introduced the game to the "Colonies". The historical scoreline of which you speak I cannot comment on as it was in the olden, dark days and under a diffferent regime. Actually I though it was a pretty good game to watch, and as I stated on another website, if I was a Malones-er I would be pretty disappointed to get scored on like that in the last minute, (tell your backline that they all can't mark Jua, it tends to leave the other players open)...as that is as weak a Peg side as you will probably get to see in the foreseeable future, and clearly your side should get full marks for being prepared, organized and giving a full effort....you missed a golden opportunity there...! Also for what it is worth (and I am not the only one in the Peg camp) I though your backup goaltender (isn't he a former D.W. Craighead Award winner by the way?) was outstanding...your #1 was pretty good too, that save he made on Findlay's 1st half chip (I guess we got into Malones half once in the first half anyway right Biggs) was one of the better ones I have seen this year. All in all though a pretty exciting game. PS: I say anyone who writes off Norvan does so at their own peril. Merry Christmas to all...especially Malones for our little gift.

Merry Christmas Sir M Thank you so much for the gift but a tie for Christmas is not cool;D The 11 players and yourself must have tried really hard to put this together for us but they being such weak links on your 'oh so humble team', failed to find the perfect gift. Oh well maybe next year. You were also given a gift from us but failed to take real advantage of it. Next go around we'll give you a few hints The one you missed this year ...... one starting defenceman all year. You now know why jua had ornaments hanging off him ;D Merry Christmas to all NSCL players and managers, and PLEASE 'no more Peg. gifts' although the thought was MOST appreciated

Speeking of Christmas and Gift Giving....How many OG's did Duzzi get to take credit for this week? Maybe we should have a seperate scoring stat sheet that includes OG's. (might be the only chance Duzzi has of winning any hardware by season end) ;D
"Biggs" Your night of drinking before you posted last week seemed to add to your creativity, so maybe you should try having a few before a game ;D

Make-up game tonight
Malones 5 - 0 Lynn Valley (if they show up).
Biggs, how many beers so far today ? I hope Auntie - Fan is right. You probably still have some alcohol left in your blood stream from last week.
See you tonight
