Sporting League 2010 – 2011
Game 11
Pointeso continued their rise through the Sporting ranks with a goal to nil win over bottom of the table Drakens.
Sporting Radio Pundit L: ‘I think I witnessed a goal out there today from Sporting utopia. Seriously. Pointeso may struggle to win the league this season but we’re lookin’ at a major force over the next five years – mark my words.’
Champions Universo moved into sixth position after a three one win over woodsmen Green Tree.
Universo gaffer: ‘I think it’s important for us to stick with the Universaire philosophy of read, mark, learn and Sportingly digest.’

Game 10
Bayerns remained undefeated as they swept aside Metronova with an unflattering two goals to one score line.
Tranquilayers gave Sporting Athlete a real wake up call with a well earned two goals to one win. Tranquilayers boss – ‘In light of the financial implications imposed spending restrictions, to find ourselves second at this stage of the season is highly commendable.
Sporting Radio Pundit X: ‘I was at the Olby game over the weekend against Novia. I had a bit of a revelation to be honest. Take a look at Olby….whatever happened to their strike force eh? I’d be interested to see if their board get the cheque book out and plump for a marquee signing in the transfer window.’

Game 9
The match between Sporting leaders Bayerns and Tranquilayers finished as a two – two draw. Sporting Radio Pundit X: ‘I was thinkin’ that that game had a draw written all over it. You should’ve checked on the Tranquilayers boss’s sconch at the end of the game…looked well hissed off mate.’ I asked me ol’ mate in downtown Sporting City in one of the bookies on Hutoni strip how he’d priced up the match before kick off. You’ll be intrigued to learn (well I was anyway) that all bets on the draw were closed twelve hours prior to kick off. I think you could’ve got a 7-5 shout before they pulled up the drawbridge on it.’
Athletico began creaking through the gears as they edged their tussle with fallen heroes Olby by two goals to one.
Red Star held onto their forth position in spite of a one goal to nil win over Lunderbach. Red Star gaffer: ‘Abject, abject and erm…abject!’

Game 8
Novia saw their gaffer sent off as they conceded a dubious injury time goal against Tranquilayers. Novia boss: ‘What do you expect me to say? If I open my trap I’m sure the trusted sporting federation will ban me from the league full stop. Freedom of speech? Smeedom of peach more like!’
Bayerns eased to a two goals to nil victory over fifteenth placed Pacifica. Sporting Radio Pundit X: ‘I don’t think the Bayerns players broke into a sweat out there. I felt for the Pacifica boss really. I mean, they had so much potential when they first entered the league and now they’re a side in decline. I guess it’s kinda reflected all along the Pacifica coast. I wouldn’t take my holidays there nowadays – the crime levels have gone through the roof since the financial meltdown.’

Game 7
Bayerns came back from a goal to nil down against Drakens to prevail by two goals to one. Sporting Radio Pundit X: ‘I can’t recall ever seeing a pitch as bad as that in The Sporting League – they need to be hit with a hefty fine.’
Pundit L: ‘Oh come off it, if you start hitting smaller sides such as Drakens with fines then we’ll lose the teams that add a bit of much needed character to the league.’
Pundit X: ‘There can’t be any excuses at this level. The supporters pay out their hard earned dough to watch a mud pie contest. Come on, wake up, get real and smell the coffee buster!’
Tranquilayers put further pressure on the Athleticans with a one – nil victory. Tranquilayers coach: ‘I’m really proud of that performance. I’ll admit that even I thought it was going to be a draw but we seem to have something else about us this season.’
Pointeso and Universo cancelled each other out and virtually ended one another’s championship chances after only seven games. Universo boss: ‘It’s an uphill struggle for us now. This league can be so unforgiving. I reckon we can aim for a top three finish this year…anything else in a bonus.’
