League: Yestarday's league match saw the Buffs take on the Behemoth that is the 13th placed club.
Buffs won 4-0. It was a disapponting score in a way but the performance seemed excellent. So Buffs FC stayed top by 1pt and improved the gd a little on 2nd.
Final Score: SC 1910 0-4 Buffs
Goals: Law, ST (8, 84), McCoist, ST (34), Gemmill, MC (82).
Bookings: Hutton (20)
Highlights: or rather, Lowlight, as Hutton, DMC, is not out of the historic rivaly league clash with Fenerbahce.
Champions League: With the Buffs 4-1 up the preparations for the 2nd leg was fraught with apathy and disinterest. Every time Buffs Mad tried to talk tactics his mind wandered. Eventually the opposition change to 4-4-2 just before kick off focused the mind and Buffs went 3N-4-1-2 although with a last second decision to go with Mixed Passing rather than the more natural (for Buffs Mad) Flanks.
The first half was a snooze-a-thon apart from the Buffs defense keeping up the Clubs tradition of collecting Yellows - 2 players booked.
The second half started with Central DC McNeill replaced by Danny McGrain. Buffs Mad also switched to Attacking down both flanks. McCoist then hit a doubl - the first a penalty and the second a solo effort finished in the corner off the post. For the last 10 mins Buffs Mad decided to throw 3 up front and try 3N-4-3....only for one of Gemmell's Dirty Habits to surface as he spat at the opposition striker. So Red Card and a 20% possession penalty. Buffs Mad immediately pulled an MC back into defence but the penalty was not reset until the clocked ticked to 90 mins, just before the final whistle.
Final Score: FC Untergang 0-2 Buffs
Goals: McCoist, ST (57, 64)
Bookings: Gemmell (24), McNeill (41), Straight Red Gemmell (83) OFF
Lowlights: Buffs players now have 1 suspended for next league match, 1 suspended for both ties in next CL round, and 12 more players on a yellow for 1 or both of the league and CL.
But at least Buffs Mad now gets the Dirty Habit plaque to hang in the toilet.
