Spartans Lose Out

Another Spartan Shot Blocked!

LAPSES CAUSE GOALS
Just hours after the Spartan's lose, pundits and experts were already putting the final nail in the Spartan casket.
With last place a certainty, the team was looking towards a new formation and eagerness.
"Relegation is a possibility," said Captain Ian,"But we're always looking for miracles. I pray everyday, three times on game day."
Once again our heroes were more than a challenge for the opposition. But it was the Spartans who were down by 1 goal at the half. A bad bounce actually fooled everyone and found its own way into the net.
"I think the Baron's oranges were off a bit," said Anders after taking a mouthful of the delectable fruit."and I said Oranges, not Golden Oranges, so stop doing all that colouring and fonting! I mean it!"
"The oranges were fine," commented Dave, who tasted his first half time treat.
For the second half, it was back to business. The Spartans found the net early, only to be denied by some great goalkeeping.
"Seems that I can't even hit the post after someone on the website made fun of me..." an angry Tyler told reporters.
Taking four unanswered goals near the end of the half seemed to seal the deal.
A last minute charge by Fil and the Baron didn't change matters, as a Golden Orange opportunity was missed right infront of the net.
The game ended a five game scoring streak for the hapless Spartans, who now play their next game against their post season rivals. The question on everyone's mind is, can they win a game?
"No team in the history of Darlington has gone with a total losing record," a contemplating Captain Ian told an empty room," but we'll try."

Those were Navel Oranges.

Why does it always rain when the Spartans play on that field?

You can't win if you don't score.
