Sporting League: Game 30
Universo were held in their match with second placed Athletico. Sporting radio Pundit X: ‘I think the Athletican coffers have been hit for six in the current economic climate. My worry for them is how it’s gonna affect them over the next five years or so. I think a lot of clubs have got some tough times ahead and it really does pose the question as to whether The Sporting League itself is no longer sustainable. However, you wouldn’t have noticed too many problems on the field for them today as they very nearly defeated the league leaders. Lets face it guys, Universo are lucky to have come out of that one with a point…’
Bogey team Colne caused another top team upset by winning against a Yop Lane side by two goals to one. Yop boss: ‘We’re relying on other results going for us now in terms of our slim chances of winning the title. I’ve tried my best to replicate the Colbreck success in The Sporting League, but I’m finding it very difficult attracting top players to a small club over the summer months. We’re clutching at straws at the moment – I even considered calling my mate who was once Bayerns number one player back in 1988 to come out of retirement just to give some of our kids a bit of mentoring.’
Novia moved within six points of the leaders with eight games remaining to beat Green Tree by three goals to one.
News just in Sporting Radio live report: Pundit R: ‘Well I’m currently stood in Pointeso city centre and have just been informed that Pointeso have booted out their head coach for attempting to fix the match against Bombaya. Pointeso chairperson…’I’m not standing for this. Look we’re a new club and I’ve always stated that if I ever notice any unfair play heads will roll. You’d be fooling yourselves if you think the bad old days of the Basket Vac fixing days in the year 2000 are over. It’s still rife.’
