Done The Double

What can i say ? only well done well done well f------ done lads .
You should all be so proud of your self's ,it is some achievement to win the League and the League Cup in the same season and to be in an other final as well bloody brilliant .
I must give credit to the Tom Jones Fc ,who made it a really good game ,by the way we won 2-0 with goals from Peter Tobin who scored a cracking free kick ,And Karl Sid who beat about 4 players before scoring from the most weird angle .If any one is wondering why i have only wrote this today it has taken me this long to sober up,but i hope i feel exactly the same in 2 weeks when we play Seaburn , in our other final so folks watch this space see you soon.

TOBIN TONKS TOMS

Tom Jones Fc were given a lesson in finishing on Sunday by the mercurial Peter Tobin ,who bagged his first hat trick of the season. On a wind batterd Buckley Hill it was not unusual for the Lions to again hammer Tom Jones Fc ,Tobin opened th scoring after 20 mins ,when after receiving the ball on the left he rounded 3 players before firing into the bottom corner,try as they could Toms could not get out of their half even though they had the assistant of a very strong wind ,10 mins later Mcshane split Toms defence with a lovely, pass which Johnny Gladwell got on the end of and duly dispatched under the advancing keeper 2-0 half time.
The second half was when Tom Jones Fc wished they had stayed on their green green grass at home as they were put to the sword ,Tobin scored 2 in 5 mins ,1 of a corner with a deft header at the near post ,and then nearly taking the net off with a left footed volly 4-0 .From then on it was a totally 1 sided game with all hands trying to get in on the act Lee Sid became a centre forward for a mad 5 mins ,before he ran out of steam, Kev Park left back went on a mazy run and was fouled on the edge, the ref gave a pen which he duly took and scored 5-0,10 mins later Maca got on the end of one and put it away 6-0 and in the dying minutes Sean bull Preston let fly with a rocket a of shot which finished the game of,as by this time Tom Jones players were crying for a pint or a point?

RIP OFF MONDAY

Last night Monday 31/3/08 should have been a night of celebration,but as it turned out it was a night of frustration leading to anger.Again at what should have been a show piece for the ABAs,again turned into a farce as once more 1 of our lads was well and truly CHEATED out of a decision .Mick Loup had the fight of his short career to date [11 contests ], performed magnificently,he boxed Tom Jones [38 contests ]from Skem ABC ,for the first 2 rounds it was close on our scoring with both lads getting in some eye catching shots ,coming out for the 3rd Loupy Caught Tom clean on the button ,which made him wobble ,after this Loupy dominated from the centre not letting tom get any shots off and wearing him down at the final bell both lads embraced which shows respect nice 1 lads.
When the decision went to Tom the gasps of amazement could be heard right through the hall ,to say we were shocked was an understatement so to you judges shame on you because it is ---ty decisions like this that make lads pack it in.
Also boxing last night was young Mick Rigby ,who boxed Ryan Cameron from Sefton ABC,Mick had to give away weight height and age to this kid ,but nothing deters him ,he would fight any 1 any where, great attitude and totally fearless .Mick got of to a flyer catching his opponent with hooks and body shots onthe inside ,and nicked the first round,coming out for the second Ryan was like a man possessed as he launched into a frenzied assault ,he had to be spoken to by the ref asking him to cool it ,he caught mick with some heavy shots in this round and i would say won it .
Going into the last both lads tried to dominate from the centre which led to a lot of holding and mauling Ryan was sharper with his shots coming out of the brake, again catching Mick with straight scoring eye catching shots and on the strength of these was duly declared the winner .
