Abbreviated match report: Sporting Apostrophes vs Sugary Tea
The Super A’s, suffering from exhaustion following their fixture with Unsung Heroes, were hammered 14-5 by Sugary Tea.
Fielding the same line-up as their first “Super Sunday” fixture and with no substitutes, the Apostrophes were always likely to struggle, despite their renowned athleticism.
The match started brightly enough, with Hawkins scoring within five seconds of the kick-off. An injury to Kimberley reduced the team to four men a short while later; the game deteriorated horribly from there, with a tidy hat-trick from McInerney being the only consolation.
Sporting Apostrophes end the season rooted to the bottom of the second division. A terrible injustice!
Score: 5-14
Squad: Bonell, Hawkins, Kimberley, McInerney, Reid.
Goals: Hawkins (1), McInerney (3), Reid (1).
I played a blinder in the first game, even if I do say so myself, but how anyone can vote me for man-of-the-match in the second game is beyond me!
Perhaps it was the faceplant against the wall that impressed people?
The votes are for the outburst of delirium and general madness, the kung-fu throw-outs to opposing forwards and the befuddled admission that you knew not what day it was. Running headlong into a wall, on purpose, was just a teaser for the full floorshow.
As above, I only heard the story – and after much laughter my decision was made. Additionally, I simply can’t believe Midnight Beardsley scored a hat-trick, no matter how disabled the opposition.
I know, a hat-trick from “static” – what’s the world coming to?
I think it’s about to end, which is a slight concern.
