REFS to ENERGIE

NO LOLI-GAGGING and NO JUMPING

Loli Kicks as Saul flops in the background!

REF's were incensed with Energie over the past few games due to an assortment of issues.

"ENERGIE kicks the ball too hard," related the REF office," and they can't jump around the field like they do."

When asked what rules prohibit kicking the ball in a strong manner, or jumping to do a header or block a pass, the REF office was less outspoken.

Instead, we were treated to a game where calls were made against Energie, costing them a valuable three points in the league.

"I'm not sure why the REF's, including one in particular, feel the need to make calls for their friends, but this needs to stop," said Captain Terry.

Fans were outraged as a penalty was called against their team when Terry did a routine stop and his opponent went diving.

"Even the Russian Judge gave this flopper a 7.1," commented Assistant Captain Andrew.

With the REF pool heavily depleted, our Spartan teams how they'll fare against the calls of the future.

"We'll continue to play our game," revealed Golden Pear Leader Saul," and adjust our game to our play."

HE's ALL LOKO

PERENNIAL FAN FAVE IS ABE-ILITY TO SCORE

Abe gets a Kick out of his Goals
One of the things you'll see when watching Spartan games are goals and losses.

But if you're tuning into Lokomotive games, you may see a certain someone gearing up. A long time veteran who knows how to turn the game around.

"I started with Baron many, many years ago," recalls Abe," I was watching Germany vs. Portugal in the World Cup. In the middle of the Portuguese Club I hear this Viking war cry. We all turn around to see The Baron (although we called him something in Portuguese similar to Crazy Guy). I sat down with this guy who had guzzled down 50 Litres of beer. That's worth something where I come from."

"Baron mesmerized me with tales from his days in the Bundesliga. I had to join his team!"

The rest was history.
Abe quickly became well regarded as "the old man", and they chanted his name with each goal.

"I'm not getting any younger," Abe professed," and at 89 it's hard to get those 114mph shots off. But the fans keep me going, and so do the half time Squeezees."

His team mates all have good words when it comes to their friend.

"He dresses well," said Curtis," the guy comes in with a three piece suit, which he wears after the game."

"The ball literally sticks to his shoes when he moves," relates veteran Jon," and when he scores, he goes all nuts like it's the first time."

Abe simply laughs at the accolades from his peers.

"They're all good guys. They know who's the best. And when he's subbed off, I'm there to pick it up." Abe says.
