Sausages, A Hat Trick & Lurch

We tried to cheat this week by having two goalkeepers...but they ended up not in the same goal. Which was a shame but possibly a good way to keep the goal difference in the positive!!

Our FORMER captain Knoxy has been offering his deep-fried sausage to another team mate's wife!! Luckily she declined, otherwise the THIRD Knox offspring might have been on its way!

The Sloan Machine was in full action at the weekend but he couldn't gain a third MoM award. Instead it was left to three goal hero Martin...no Martyn....Knox, who put in a FORMER captain's performance.

We have another celebrity in the team...Lurch from The Adamms Family turned up on Saturday and lurched around the pitch. And then put in another game for the 3s too!

Oh by the way Matt R...YES you were sh*t! Oh by the way again, Leeds won and are now ABOVE Forest and in a play-off spot!

What a fine motley crew we are eh??

The fairytale ends for some....but the Mighty 2s roll on

Lewis Hamilton's fairytale season came to end, he was sooooo close. The old farts...I mean the England rugby team's fairytale also finally came. It was a brave effort....and DEFINITELY a try, Mr Fourth Official!

Talking of dodgy officiating...hhmmmm maybe we shouldn't. Let's just leave it as dodgy and at least our 5 goals outweighed the efforts of their "twelfth man".

The Mighty 2s continue to roll on. We have to keep the pressure on the teams at the top of the table and 4 wins from 4, we can't ask for anymore than that!

Now can someone PLEASE tell me how to get out of Corby, I'm still here driving around with Jason in the back seat and he's starting to get hungry!!!!!

Plastic or grass

Your illustrious captain started playing hockey when he was 13 years old. It was on grass and we played the 2-3-5 formation (that's 5 upfront!!) and there was even offside. OFFSIDE? I hear you say. Yes that's right, you were offside in a similiar way to offside in football but only in the opposition's 22.

And the green stuff we played on was called grass. Sometimes very muddy and always very bouncy! Nowadays we play on the artificial stuff and the game of hockey has adapted very well to it.

So if a bunch of blokes that come together, pay for the privelege and have a lot of fun and win games, I'm pretty sure that 11 overpaid nancy boys can do it too. They have ALL played on artificial pitches before as practically all the top clubs have one of these new generation pitches that look like grass, feel like grass but are plastic.

Let's hope we have a bit more faith in ourselves to win away on a plastic pitch than England did on Wednesday night!!

Only two things are certain in life...taxes and Death!

Did you see Death on the pitches last week?

At least I think it was Death. He was a large bloke, but he was all dressed in white which was confusing. He was running up and down the pitch shouting "Come on Newark!!" which was also confusing.

But in my eyes it must have been Death as he had a large scythe and was cutting down anything in his path.......sticks, legs and green cards!!

Proud to be English!!

What a great weekend of sport it was!! And it all started thanks to the Mighty 2s!

Following our victory, secret footage of our victory over Ashby was rushed over to the England Rugby camp and look what happened! It was then emailed over to the cricket team in Sri Lanka, and Nottinghamshire star Graeme Swann took heart from Craig "Mop Head" Barnfield's man of the match performance and took 4-34 and hit 25 runs to set England up for victory.

THEN Amir Khan watched it and won in the 4th round, James Toseland saw it before winning the World Superbike championship and Nick Matthew produced a devastating display to win the final of the US Squash Open!!

AND all because...........the lady loves milk tray....sorry I mean all because they took inspiration from our stirling performance on Saturady. Well done!!

Coach of the Month

Leeds United's manager Dennis "Nookie Bear" Wise has won Manager of the Month for the second successive time. I think we should make up our own award - Coach of the Month. Nominations are Sally Davies. And the winner of September's Coach of the Month goes to....... (wait for it) .................... (is the suspense killing you yet?) ........................................ Sally "I change the colour of my hair weekly" Davies.

5 games & 4 wins with 25 goals scored & 7 conceded. Not bad at all and a great start to the season. Well done chaps and long may it continue.

And for those of you interested Leeds have played 9, won 8 and drawn 1 scoring 18 goals and only conceding 4. Long may it continue also!! Marching on together.......And rightfully should be 6 points clear at the top of the table!

PS We're top of the table too!!
