Game 8 - Celtic 1 Marblehead 2

It was a cold and breezy morning as both teams warmed up with full benches. This was a critical match and it showed from the start ... a hard fought battle from start to finish with very little between the two teams and relatively few clear cut chances to be had. Marblehead scored the first two goals in the first half and I hate to say it but they were good goals ... not good by our standards mind you .... good for a sub par team of wankers. In the second half Boomer pulled one back for us after a scramble in the goalmouth. Boomer created a second opportunity that Caino put in the net but this one was ruled offside. Overall we created slightly more chances than Marblehead and a fairer result would have been a tie but it was not to be. Stoneham won so they closed the gap and the top three are now Marblehead on 15, Celtic on 14 and Stoneham on 12 with two games left. I don't see Stoneham catching Celtic or Marblehead but what do I know?

This week my crack research team has been working closely with me on a player profile. Our midfield dynamo Rob Lebel is the player in focus. Here are some things about Rob that you may not know. Rob was born on probation and was toilet trained far too early (three months) although he was a bed wetter until his mid thirties. Rob has anger issues as a result of this and this anger manifests itself in the form of violent tackles against opposing players. Rob is clever though and can easily wriggle out of being carded with his happy go lucky nature and witty retorts ... witty retorts that upon reflection are actually biting comments that keep folks awake with night sweats. If you get on the wrong side of Rob you will pay the price ... his biting comments will torture you. A few years ago the gentlemen in the cell next to Rob ate his own tongue after Rob whispered to him through the bars for a few hours. Rob is an avid reader of this blog and freely provides feedback ... feedback that I treat with electric shock therapy. They are cranking up the dosage and have turned up the nob to 11.
