Season 69

Palace teams report, Monday 10th August...

A couple of days to report as I have been out of town...

Casuals had a Champions League match they'd rather forget. After the 6-1 heaviest defeat ever last season, they didn't even get the one at home to a team 7+AQ better, sporting 10 6* players in their starting line-up. Barring a miracle of the highest order, a discrete veil will be drawn over the Champions League for this season. Defender Freddy Jones had his 150th appearance in this game. A couple of League games saw the Casuals bounce back after the CL woes with a 4-0 away win, Hansen, Petrovski, Shaqiri and Zhelev scoring; and a 0-0 away draw. In the Cup, a team a level lower was entertained at home, and they put up a good account of themselves as Casuals won 1-0. Johan Shaqiri celebrated his 150th appearance by hitting the visitors before they had settled in with a 1st minute strike, so a slender advantage will be taken into the return leg.



Terriers started with a 1-0 away win in the League, Nicky Jones providing the goal on the stroke of half-time, then hosted a team of 2Q higher in the Cup, and take a 1-0 advantage in to the return leg. Xabier Moran put the icing on Ruben Gorrano's 50th appearance with the winning goal in the 65th minute. Back to the League, and the 8 game winning run came to a halt with a 1-2 defeat. The hosts were 2-0 up in 25 minutes, and the Terriers attack only breached the home defence in the 89th minute, Xabier Moran, making his 50th appearance in Terriers colours, providing a free-kick cross for recent signing striker Matt Hall to head in his debut goal. The Cup provided an away trip to the US and a 4-2 win to all but seal a Semi-Final berth for the Terriers. Aad Roemgens opened the scoring, and debutant midfielder Stanislav Dolgoborodov put Terriers back in front in the second-half before Ondrej Kadlec scored a brace to seal the win.



Desert Rats FC have suffered a mid-season slump, two defeats taking them perilously close to dropping out of the promotion race altogether. Striker Lorcan Ivory scored the goal in the first match, a 1-3 defeat, and midfielder Michael Attenborough put the Rats ahead early in the second match, but the rest of the team folded in the last half-hour and the final score was 1-4.

Got a crucial 1-0 away victory. Only goal came from MC Schulz from a corner. Noticed 2nd half, opponent in 1st supported against me. His match was a minute before mine and he lost 3-2 at home. Now we a point behind him..... Dont be scared buddy, WE WILL take that 1st position.

The Big Fat Badass with no loses in my League is finally down !! .. I just didnt get it how so far he managed to win so many matches considering all 14 teams are fully active 5-6* teams..

About the match.. Well alot happened,nordeus gave me the first injury of the season and a few yellows as well.. But the end was good.
Edit : Mazeto continues his dominance even against 2-3* higher than him..Now he has 186 goals in 213 matches (6 seasons)

[Steppenwolf]

14 injuries in 17 days... MC Vietz injured 4h time this season!!!

[Buffs Mad]

League: Before the match a mysterious stranger said to Buffs Mad "You're looking comfortable at the top. You must feel quite relaxed", then laughed. Buffs FC draw 1-1 with 7th. Nothing went right. The team played like they had never met before and Henderson sought to reclaim his bad boy title with a red card near HT.

We'll lose top spot in an hour. Someone will pay.

So that's the 5th suspension this Season for the Buffs engine room.
