Unkept Field Stops the Spartans

Cutters come in AFTER the game!

"All things considered, this is probably a disaster," a disgruntled Captain Ian said after the 6-1 loss on an overgrown field." I was getting visions of my time in the 'Nam. Either way, it was a massacre of epic proportions."
Missing many of their star players, including Dave, Fil and Kevin, the Spartans struggled early with the set plays of Durham United.
"It was like watching the England verseus Germany game at the WC 2010," said the Spartan Fan who left early during the drubbing.
After being down 2-0, sports sensation James took a nifty 1-2-3 pass from Rocco, Tyler and into the net.
"These old timers don't know how to score," said the arrogant youngster, who's story will appear later on this site.
Meanwhile, old veterans Anders, Sam and Tyler experienced severe difficulties penetrating the enemy 18.
"Well, atleast I'm not hitting the cross bars," said Tyler, who missed one great chance from a long ball sent by a frustrated Fernando.
"I'm playing like f#ckin sh!t. I can't believe my @ss luck!" said the Spartan goal scorer infront of his wife and children.
According to Gerry Dobson and Craig Forrest, the Spartans seemed to have bogged down in the 6 inch tall grass.
"Your wife calls that six inches?" asked a disbelieving Craig Forrest. Gerry quickly changed subjects upon a great feed to the Baron.
"The collective crowd held their breathe," said an astonished Gerry," as the ball gravitated towards the ex-Dortmund superstar. Crickets stopped their mating songs. It was if the world itself waited."
Unfortunately, the well placed shot caught the high grass and rested easily for the out of position goalie.
"I really thought it was in," a panting Captain Ian sighed," but that's the way it goes in this league. Either it's in or it isn't. This wasn't one of those times."
