#16 'Kegster' Clyde – Smashed Knee (NI)
“Carlton's second game for the season and their second loss also...
Once again United were forced to play the entire game with a reduced squad due to early casualties. This is becoming a problem for the struggling club who, despite being the Premier League champions just 2 season ago, are now looking a serious risk to be relegated to Division 2 next season.
Game MVP 'Kegster' Clyde was asked what he thought about the club's recent performance. A good dose of swearing was his only reply, though we believe it was chiefly a mixture of swearing at himself and swearing to lift his miserable game (his giant fists repeatedly pounding upon his iron skull would seem to back this up).
Mr. Swan's comments were more intelligible...
"Look, simple as this. We've just got to learn to stand up and fight a bit more than we have been. We've lost our fighting spirit, that's the problem. I personally can't remember the last game that we played past the first few minutes before one of our nancy boy fifth wheelers decided to spend the rest of the match in the rooms groaning. It just ain't good enough and if things don't improve, we'll be looking at some serious changes around here. It's high time Carlton started dealing a bit of punishment ourselves..."
*********************************************************
Great game Covert, excellent coaching. If not for that turn with the Kegster I would have been perfectly happy with myself. I think we both played well and it was fun! :)”

There must still be some fighting spirit, however, with a mighty showing against one-time champions Carlton United.
Skeptics would point that much of the Reagent's advantage early in the game was due to their beautifully sung team anthem "If You Penalise Our Team, Well Then I'll Have Your Chilren Killed" and its effect on the referee.
However, anthem or no anthem, they could once again play with pride, scoring after some early difficulties in the first half, and coming through again in the dying moments of the second half to win a close game.
Now - to buy some of those positional players and get on in the league.

I agree, Twahn, fantastic game. I think I had very good luck, too, though - in terms of timing. C'mon Carlton, pull up your socks, sally forth and harm.”
