We hope for the best, because we wanna entertain our fans again!!» Jørgen Bjørnelv, Andeby FK: «Og med sardin fabrikker i hvert kvartal, er det ikke særlig rart at onkel Donald han blei gal! Han blei deppa først og tørst å begynte å drikke og blei lagt inn på asyl da det virkelig begynte å klikke!!» Darius Molloy, Batt in Blax: «Battin Average... Almost Perfect» Paul Riley, Car Park Rangers: «After redeeming himself with the fans and with a final single bound from the stadium the remarkable Clark Kent says his big goodbye to the professional leagues. How will the Rangers replace him? Watch this space.» Sean Cable, DC Red Hot and Blues: «Told ya so, told ya so, told ya, told ya, told ya so...» Morten Ødegaard, Dial Square FC: «Do you need a young goal keeper? G ap 2, looking for another club. Dial Square is interrested to sell him or a exchange for a more experienced player? Contact [email protected] for a deal.» The children of all ages (including adults), Fluffy Bunny Eaters (singing): «Where have all the fluffles gone, long time ago....» Haavard Pettersen, Flaaklypa FK: «Solan! Ludvig! We gotta get the Il Tempo Gigante going! .... (Nei, dra meg baklengs inn i fuglekassa...(!)) -translated: (No, pull me backwards into the birdbox...(!))» Espen Chr. Brill, Grorud Grasshuggers: «Dar she blows!» Bouncing Boulder, Grunts United: «A draw is a draw is a draw» Egbert Ferreira, Marvel Comics: «The mutants are revolting. From now on, expect them to use their superpowers to boot other´s guys ankles and knees. In Charles Xavier mind, roughplay 10 is the key to success! Call the armed forces!!! They are out of control!!!» Guybrush Threepwood, Monkey Business: «I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob!» Håvard Pettersen, Odd Athletics: «Lets ove, before so ething ysterious happens to e too!» Jørgen Bjørnelv, Really New Bremen Cyberdruids: «Ok guys! get ready for my new plan... TO CRUSH YOU ALL!!!! MOHAHAHAHA. RNBC is back for real!» Owen Blagae, Stranraer Reserves: «Wahay! A point!» Knut Eivind Brennhaug, Twin Peaks Owls: «Garland Briggs' vision: - This is a vision, impression, clear as a mountain stream.. - The mind revealing itself to itself.. - In my vision, I was on the verandah of a vast estate, platso of some fantastic proportion. - Seemed to emanate from life within this, I mean, radiant one. - I've known this place, I know I've been born and raised here. - This is my first return. - Reunion of the deepest wells of my being. - I was happy, carefree. - Clearly, living a life of deep harmony and joy. - My vision ended. - I awoke, tremendous feeling of optimism and confidence.» 3. Apprentices discovered Sleep Wanderers: Wanda Mann 4. League results Rosedale Open Match day 7 ========================== Call of Cthulhu - the Ancients 3 : 0 Scorers: Dagon (5.), Yig (64.), Nyarlathotep (8.) ***--- A stellar performance by the Lurking Fear, beating out those of age with size and intimidation. Camarilla Divided - Really New Bremen Cyberdruids 0 : 0 Booked: --- ***Dominic 'Victim' Hobson, Malek, Michaela di Vani, Samuel, Viarache Dunne An infernally boring match that both teams could have won – had they only scored a goal. Jedi Order - Saturday Morning FC 1 : 0 Scorers: Darth Revan (69.) ***--- Booked: --- ***Pinky The Lightside again defends heroically, and this time pulls out a win against top contenders Saturday Morning FC! That relegation zone can sure bite you to make you come flying back up... Sale Savoyards - Stranraer Reserves 10 : 1 Scorers: Hilarian (17., 27., 59., 63.), Strephon (14., 30., 37.), Sam (52., 57., 79.) ***Noah Little (87.) Sent off: --- ***Heiyu Hoyahamahia (87.) Booked: --- ***Wayne Sweat There was never much doubt where the points were going, but towards the end the Singers let go a little, letting Stranraer get a consolidation goal. And then it happened - Heiyu Hoyahamahia couldn't resist some tasteless celebration, and was sent for an early shower, thus missing a match next weekend. the Blitzball Team - Grunts United 1 : 1 Scorers: --- ***Larry Long (63.) Penalties: 1 ***- Booked: Amalie, Botta, Datto, Ophelia ***Fork Fever The Blitzballers attempted to play suspended Rikku, but replaced with Ophelia they still could field a full 11. The match itself was largely uneventful, but given both were lucky enough to score one goal on their lone shots, the result is fair after all. Grorud Grasshuggers - Lower Tadfield Apocalypse 0 : 4 Scorers: --- ***Chalky (22., 78.), Witchfinder Major Saucepan (26.), Jigglypuff (8.) The Community Center was out of cookies today, and thus they couldn't keep tabs on logins and logouts, and the Apocalypse won through sneaking in a couple extra angels that did not so much fall as saunter vaguely backwards. Rosedale Open Match day 8 ========================== Lower Tadfield Apocalypse - the Blitzball Team 5 : 0 Scorers: Chalky (49., 51., 63., 65.), Witchfinder Major Saucepan (55.) ***--- Booked: --- ***Amalie, Max, Tidus Lower Tadfield has had an excellent weekend and claims top alone for now - the visiting Blitzballers would've had to put on their best set of players to compete at Tadfield Manor! Grunts United - Sale Savoyards 0 : 0 Booked: Defty Metalspike ***--- An even and slow game at Shraaaag Memorial Stadium, with both teams having a small chance of scoring a goal, but neither managed to. Stranraer Reserves - Grorud Grasshuggers 1 : 6 Scorers: Phil MacRevis (6.) ***Herb (46., 59., 78.), Zim the Invader (16.) Penalties: - ***2 Sent off: Heiyu Hoyahamahia (15.) ***--- Booked: Kenny Kikkett ***Tingelingling, Toad Tallybag the Blues welcomed the Grasshuggers at Stair Park, and took only 6 minutes to claim the lead. However, Heiyu Hoyahamahia had learnt nothing of manners, and ended up getting sent off only minutes after, and from then on, it was largely one-way play on Stranraer's goal. Really New Bremen Cyberdruids - Jedi Order 4 : 0 Scorers: Tony Stark (43., 72.), Maurice P. Schmidt (76.), Samuel (79.) ***--- Penalties: - ***- (2 missed) Booked: Dominic 'Victim' Hobson, Gregory, Maurice P. Schmidt ***--- the Cyberdruids lost a few points to the 3:1 rule, but that didn't matter much - they jump up the table with a solid victory against table neighbours Jedi Order, who had just passed them after the last game. Saturday Morning FC - Call of Cthulhu 1 : 1 Scorers: Pinky (5.) ***Juk-Shabb (59.) Penalties: - (1 missed) ***- (1 missed) Sent off: --- ***Shub-Niggurath (80.), Hound of Tindalos (81.) Two of the most promising teams face off at ACME Park, and the home team started out with claiming the lead early. However, Call of Cthulhu came back in the second half, first with an equalizing goal, and then summoning lots of scary, peculiar monsters towards the very end. The referee didn't like this at all, though, and handed them both the jack of hearts and the seven of diamonds. the Ancients - Camarilla Divided 0 : 0 Penalties: - (1 missed) ***- Sent off: --- ***Catherine 'Too Close' Sewers (46.) Booked: Morosaurus, Tyrannosaurus ***Pierre 'Shotgun' Duval, Sebastien de Rude The prestiguous Scarborough derby ends goalless, as the Oldtimers impressively manage to draw despite a missed penalty, somewhat helped by a red card to a certain Nosferatu early in the second half. Lexington League Match day 7 ============================= Monkey Business - Desassossego Blues 3 : 1 Scorers: The SCUMM bar chef (3.), Elaine Marley (5.), Skeleton Bob (61.) *** Thomas Crosse (19.) Sent off: Carla (40.) ***--- Booked: --- ***Alvaro de Campos, Pantaleao Monkey Business are the last team in the promotion zone, but defends their position successfully in the first match of the weekend, despite having to do without Carla and her sword for most of the match. The Blues fought decently enough, though, and we'll probably see them come back stronger soon. Trivial Brief Association - Dial Square FC 0 : 0 Booked: KLM ***Henry, Ljunberg The Shorties pressed all game, but Woolwich Arsenal's newly purchased keeper had an excellent day at work, allowing the away team to claim a lucky point. Mishima Zaibatsu - Dangermouse 1 : 0 Scorers: Roger the Bush Kangaroo (30.) ***--- Penalties: - (1 missed) ***- Booked: --- ***Isanbard, Penfold The top two teams of Lexington League face off at the Iron Fist Tournament, and whoever expected an entertaining match were sorely disappointed. Almost nothing happened, but there was someone skipping around the Mouseketeer defense once, and that was enough - a rather lucky homewin for those who heed the call. Will they claim the division's karma crown? First Men of Rome - Coventry 16 : 1 Scorers: Spartacus (3., 5., 42., 48., 49.), Marcus Aurelius (34., 38., 72., 87.), Caligula (9., 10., 29., 30.), Marcus Livius Drusus (16., 88.), Maximus Decimus Meridius (79.) ***Onix (20.) Penalties: - (1 missed) ***- What supposedly could've been a key relegation fight, was instead a demonstration that even without two key players, the Toga Boys are at the wrong end of the table. Can anything save the Sky Blues from relegation? Car Park Rangers - Marvel Comics 4 : 3 Scorers: Remy Le Beau (23., 81.), Bob the Tremere (52., 80.) ***Iceman (52.), Cyclops (16.) Penalties: - ***1 Sent off: --- ***Pyro (4.) Booked: Tetsujin ***Cyclops, Eddy Gordo, Miss Marvel A very close fight that started out with Marvel losing a player early, but then claiming the lead nevertheless. The Powers then went up to 2-1, but only seconds after their leading goal, Marvel came back and equalized, and then claimed the lead again.
