One final push

This could be not only the biggest game in our history but also the biggest game in the history of the Beverley Soccer Sixes league!

Listen up team. As can be seen from the writeup below it is possible our rearranged game, against the mighty Trogs, could not only be our decider for overtaking Angel but also a decider for the league winners! It is a rearranged game so may well be played last, with literally some people watching to see the outcome of the league.

We have to show them what we can do, give them something to cheer:



Since the very beginning we've not even been classed as the underdogs, we've been the unnoticed making up the numbers for the glory of others. And we have looked on with jealousy.

Yet We have soldiered on; through the vitriol, through the pity and worst of all through the obscurity and we have worn the yellow.

We have fought against the odds, forever defending, and we have worn the yellow.

We have taken defeat, we have taken ridcule, and we have worn the yellow.

We have laughed with them, as they laugh at us, and we have worn the yellow.

We have taken the worst referees, week after week, because our games 'don't matter'and we have worn the yellow!

Well next week all this can change; 2 games to shape our future. 2 games to make our mark on this league. 2 games to turn this all around. Do what we need to do and we can, finally, stroll into the bright lights instead of skirting around them. Our shirts will reflect the light back at those scorners and unbelievers, blinding them with our reflected glory, shining brighter than the sun. Heads held high, we will proudly stroll on.

And we will wear the yellow.






Results Mon 29 Mar:
Real Soldierdad 0 v 0 Reservoir Trogs

Stadio Leconfield Campo was the venue for this re-arranged match between the Army's top two teams in the Soccer Sixes league. The pitch was perfect, the light rain provided a quick surface ideal for both teams who like to pass and the ref was there focused and ready, but unfortunately the game was pretty uneventful. Both teams had a couple of half chances, but neither team took the match in their grasp and the game eventually finished 0-0.

the results leaves both teams neading other to lose as well as having to win their own matches. Realistically Trogs have the best opportunity, but will require Waterside and Weighton to lose their final / final 2 matches respectively. Trogs have 2 games against AJ's and NVA remaining and are confident of winning both. Coupled with the strongest goal difference in the league, the Trogs dream is still alive!

With that being said, the league is really Watersides to give away. The boys only require a draw in their final game which, as fate would have it, is against Real Soldierdad!

The big finale

Fixtures Wed 24 March:
Soldierdad v Black Sox 7pm
Borrusia Teeth v NVA 7pm
BarceHullona v Waterside 7pm
AJ's v Deportivo 7:30pm
Weighton v Trogs 7:30pm
Angel v ONE10 7:30pm

Right guys. Massive game this week. Take the 3 points from this one and, assuming Angel lose to ONE10, our goal difference will be almost identical to Angel's with only a -3 difference in points. This leaves us with two games, 1 more than Angel. However, as one is a game in hand, we may have to play Angel and Trogs on the final day. If we play Angel first and beat them it'll all go down to how many goals we concede against the Trogs; Us knackered from the previous game against the leagues top scorers. What a (possible) finale!

As this is the most important game of your careers thus far I thought a speech was required. I must admit that a certain Mr Shakespeare may have helped with some of the words:


Once more unto the pitch, dear friends, once more;
and close up the wall up to angel and trogs.
On pitch there's nothing so becomes a man
As modest stillness and humility:

But when the blast of the whistle blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of Brazil;
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
Disguise fair nature with hard-favour'd rage;

Then lend to us a terrific pass;
Let fly through the portage of their feet
Like from a cannon; let the enemy o'erwhelm from it
As fearfully as doth a big girl
confuse and jitter their confounded defence,
Scare'd with the wild and wasteful tackle.

Now set the teeth and stretch the nostril wide,
Hold hard the breath and bend up every spirit
To his full height. On, on, you noblest Notvery.
Chase the pass with proud feet from the fathers of football!

Feet that, unlike so many Others,
Have in these parts every wednesday fought
Never sheathed their goals through lack of endeavour:
Dishonour not your mothers; now attest
That those whom you call'd fathers did beget you.


Be copy now to men of Shangi,
And teach them how to score. And you, good yeoman,
Whose limbs were made for Notvery, show us here
The mettle of your pasture; let us swear
That you are worth your breeding; which I doubt not;

For there is none of you so mean and base,
That hath not noble lustre in your eyes.
I see you run like greyhounds in the wings,
Straining upon the start. The goal is awaiting:
Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
Cry God for the Gaffer, Notvery, and The Pub!

So, lets go out their tomorrow and destroy them!

Managers big pre-match speech.

I have been thinking and I reckon what we have been lacking is a big speech before we kick off to spur us to victory. However I'm not the talking in front of people type, so I've written one for you all to digest and read through in your head just before we kick off! Should do the trick:

"Make haste to arena flat and green,
to make recompence for achievement far overdue,
the foot of the table weeps at our immovable presence,
and the top crys at our absence.

the target of our toil is not so heavily guarded,
yet the net of our salvation remains our goal and our tyranny?
do not fear it, embrace it and fire,
cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war"



P.S. boozin' tonight (see below) who's in?
