The good news outweighs the bad in this update. (Bit picture heavy this one)

A fine result last night against bottom of the table Pedro FC. So many goals for The Avenue in this one, the opposition may as well have had a midfielder in goal. Well, okay, they did.

The goals all count though as it found The Avenue top of the league on goal average for the first time this season.

A new signing would then join us early this morning. A tad older and not quite as close to 6 star as I would have liked, but for the price and the fact I only used 2 tokens, I feel it was a good deal. I also got him from a computer team, so as far as I know (through my limited experience) he should be a good performer. Time will tell.

And finally this afternoon saw The Avenue travel to face third place, who had led the league up until the last few games and come away with a strong win.

Devastation befell us in the first 5 minutes, as Dermot Smithers went down to a torn ACL (Might have to use some red packs on him, he's my main man!) But Copeland came on and made himself known by scoring his first goal of the season. The game also saw a debut goal for Brian Graham and a man of the match despite not coming up in the comments apart from his goal, guess he was making a nuisance of himself off the ball.

Three points clear at the top now, with second place still to play today and then we'll face them tomorrow in an attempt to put more daylight between the top runners.
