TURNING VICTORY INTO DEFEAT

ABSENT SPARTANS CONTRIBUTE TO LOSS
Superstar Justin with fumes in the Tank
"You get what you give," were the words from Sparta FC owners after the 3-0 loss by a depleted Spartan side."The guys that let us down this game were the ones that didn't show up and didn't let us know."

"I have nothing but respect and admiration for the guys on the pitch today," said an injured Captain Ian, who will spend atleast a month on the IR list."We started with 10 men, and we were the better team until the gas ran out in the 70th minute."

Commentators Gerry Dobson and Craig Forrest, long time Spartan fans had this to say about the loss.
'Each and every member of the fielded team showed heart. They understood the enormity of the situation and didn't despair. Even after the second goal, each man showed his stones and dug deep. In the end, Captain Ian should be proud of the fact that his guys never gave in, and kept going till the end.'
Craig had this to add:
'There's no doubt that a full Spartan Team would have tied or won the game. It's not to say that the win would have been easy, but with the movement up front and the confidence in the back, it was difficult to say that the Village Harps would have mustered a win.'

All it takes is an email buds. You really let us down by not letting us know you weren't showing up.

I remember seeing Justin play with the Oshawa Kicks a few years back. He seemed to have more poise and selective care on his feet. Hope to see that soon!

Here's a suggestion: bench the guys who don't email that they're away the next game and play a call up instead.

Dave's near goal on the pitch reminded me of the time he scored the winner in the FAW '08 Classic. Such poise and strength of character. Hope to see that again!

@JustinFan59:

Justin was the key player of that team when they went into the playoffs. In the critical game he fanned on an open net. Not sure what became of this superstar until now.

I often dream about Ian scoring on me.

Bunch of useless twats.

Maybe next game everyone will stay home and save us the embarrassment of watching you lot.

@ Spartan_Hater

Why don't you stay at home and stop watching the games and eating the Baron's oranges.

You blokes are sad. You should tell your wives that you're still playing but hit the pub.

Better use of your time.
