White Isles Fringe Plate Spoon Final: A KO! Magazine report
KO! Magazine - "What the......just what"
The Great Gobbo - "Stop shoutin yer noisy uman, im tryin ter die ovva ere"
KO! - "That was one hell of a party. What time is it?"
GG - "free"
KO! - "In the morning?"
GG - "No, now shut yer face"
KO! - "Fine, i'm going to get a copy of the Grotty Little Newspaper, do you want anything from the shop?"
GG - "A Cornetto"
*growling noises from under Nigel's sack*
GG - "An sum krisps fer Nige"

20 minutes later sound of feet running

KO! - "Great Gobbo have you seen this in the paper?"
GG - "Wot, Iz Albion about ter split in two?"
KO! - "No the date!!"
GG - "Munday"
KO! - "And when is the final?"
GG - "Munday at five.......IT'Z ZOGGIN MUNDAY NOW??!!!!"
KO! - "Yes!"
GG - "But der party started on Fursday!"
KO! - "I know, and so does your neighbours garden by the way!"
GG - "Bluddy ell, were iz der ladz?"
KO! - "I don't know, I saw a couple up in a tree out the front"
GG - "Diz iz bad! Rite Nige you get yer sisters, I'll get der ladz and yooz get der teem wagun reddy"

10 minutes later and the teem wagon is loaded up with all the gear and is being pulled along at great speed by Nigel and her three sisters. At 16:59 the wagon pulls up at the stadium for the game.

GG - "Rite yew, yew an yew get me sum coffee an der rest of yerz sort yerselvez out"
Trash Redeye - "I puked in me elmet boss"
Rognak Sharptoof - "An me"
TR - "wot woz yooz doin wiv me elmet"
RS - "Nuffin.."
The Great Gobbo All Starz - "FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!"
GG - "Pak it in yooz two I ent in der mood now get onter dat pitch an win dat spoon!"

17:00 - Kick Off
17:01 - The GreenBeerdz Gitz go 1-0 up
17:06 - Five of the All Starz are passed out
17:13 - The GreenBeerdz Gitz go 2-0 up
17:16 - An un-named member of the All Starz befouls himself, play is halted whilst a pooper scooper is located
17:24 - It's all over, the Great Gobbo's dream of winning the inaugural White Isles Plate Spoon is nearly in a worse state than the All Starz dugout, as the GreenBeerdz Gitz win 2-0.

KO! - "So then Great Gobbo, what went wrong?"
GG - "Well dere defence wuz gud, dey maintained possession well AND WE WERE ALL PISSED AZ PARROTTS!! WHAT DER YER FINK WENT WRONG YER MUPPET?!!"
KO! - "So what have you learned from the experience?"
GG - "Moral fortitude. NOT TER GET BLIND DRUNK BEFORE A GAME YOOZ MORON! I AZ AD ENUF WIV YER STOOPID QUESTIONS, DIZ INTERVIEW IZ OVVA!"
KO! - "So as the dust settles over the field of glory, and in a small patch shame, the Great Gobbo can leave the field with his head held relatively high, as he managed to coach his team to the final of the WIF Plate Spoon without winning a single game. A truly remarkable feat which should go down in the history of this beautiful game."

*** barely manages not to laugh out loud at work ***

Not bad for a helmet puker grot stroker...

I would offer you game with https://fumbbl.com/p/team?team_id=779013 , but the best you could hope for is that we mistook you for a ball and hence managed to score a TD :P

(seriouly now)

It hard to read but its fun :)

What didn't help was the night before a Gobbo snuck into the orc camp and stole their top secret tactical play book! With that gone the orcs tactics regressed to ploughing towards the opposite endzone in a swathe of violence. Whether or not the tactis contained in the book were any different to those employed on the pitch is unknown, the book is lost with other valuables that "dissapeared" after the match.

At half time the Gobbos sent over a jug of "special" grog for my kicker. The kick ended up going way out of bounds and the Gobbos got it straight into their possession, enraging the Orcs even further!

I feel nuffle favoured me quite a bit in that match as the orcs that found themselves on the floor receiving a well placed Goblin boot to the jaw refused to leave the pitch. But I found the match banter very enjoyable!
