After our, let's just say what it was, sucky performance against the Boys in Green from the southwestern providence of Canada, the Portland Choppers come to town hoping that RSL still stinks and they can abscond with a point or two. Ergo, to get in the mood, we need to sing the Portland Choppers team song as found here. Ok, having that gotten that out of the way, here is the starting line-up for the Women's Clothes-Wearing Lumberjacks. --------------------------Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam------------------- ---An African Swallow-------Biggus Dickus-------Mr. Hilter---------A French K-Nig-It---- ---A Long John Silver Impersonator--------A Norwegian Blue Parrott--------Crunchy Frog---- --- The Black Knight---------The Rabbit of Caerbannog-----Sir Galahad the Chaste------- Ergo, if RSL can't get three points off this collection of idiots, then we should just call the season a total failure and go sit on a beach somewhere.
I'm assuming the bench has Eric the Half-a-bee, Brian (I'm surprised he's not starting), The Minister of Funny Walks, Mr. Gumby, The Nudge Man (Arthur Name), with the bench rounded out by Doug and Dinsdale Piranha. Isn't the manager The Colonel? Isn't the academy players the Greek Philosophers team?
so no Espy, which one of our shitty bench players gets to play up top with Sabo, then? The lineup I'd actually be really interested in seeing would be this: ---------------Nicky -Wingert-Olave-Borchers-Tony- -----------------KB ---------Will---------Ned ----------------Javi --------Sabo---------Mansally I remember Horst sucked complete and utter ass against speed (he did play for RSL, after all) so why not try the guy up there? He couldn't be any worse than PJ or Bonfigli. In all honesty, though, I'd bet we see a rotation in the back with Mansally (if healthy) replacing Wingert, Tony on the other side, hopefully Olave can start. In the middle we might see Gil instead of Ned or Javi (who looked really bad yesterday) and up top it'll probably be PJ next to Sabo. Get ready to be underwhelmed by our offense, again
No, the manager/trainer is a group effort by the Batley Townswomens Guild. They actually do this on the side when they aren't putting on one of their rousting editions of "Nazi War Attrocities".
Nope, the bench has Vivian Smith-Smythe-Smith, Simon Zinc-Trumpet-Harris, Nigel Incubator-Jones, Gervaise Brook-Hamster and Oliver St. John-Mollusc assuming they are able to get through the gruelling Upper Class Twit of the Year competition alive.
Which of our team will be the first to buy an argument? Or have all of the likely candidates been suspended from this game from buying too many arguments in the past?
At least Jimmy Buzzard isn't orchestrating the midfield. I hear he's bursting with Kantian positivism right now.
We've covered that already. (And to prevent a SERIOUS thread de-railing, I'll also respond in behalf of El-ahrairah) El: No we didn't. Me: Yes, we did. El: No we didn't Me: Yes, I'm sure we did.
3 points in this match would be nice, but unless we can score its not going to happen. Calling Sabo, and whoever else we try up top.
Indeed....I definately would like to see what Mansally can do up there...I think he suprised the whole stadium how well he moved the ball. If he usually plays forward or midfield, then let's give it a whirl. Maybe he can sync up with Sabo a little better than Espy. I rate both players, so don't get me wrong...they just aren't syncing up on runs.
Here's hoping the shoulder injury Mansally picked up doesn't keep him out of the game. I'm hoping most of our starters are healthy and can put in a good 90 minutes.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Sabo start with PJ and it be PJ's last chance to prove his worth. I'd prefer Mansally, but this could be what I've been waiting for: PJ's last chance
