4-2 to the spurs
A Gareth Bale hattrick ensured victory for spurs today and Ledley king was a rock on the LOS, seriously injuring two rotters \o/
It was a tighter game than the scoreline suggests, with spurs defending at the end of the second half against a 3rd equaliser from the Strangers, only for adebayor to get hold of the ball and set Bale loose from just on the halfway line to sprint the length of the pitch and score.
"Spurs, are on their way to Wembely!
Tottenhams gonna do it again...
You can stop them
teh boys from tottenham
teh boys from white hart lane! " |

Yep, was a good close game until the final minutes. Losing veteran Warrior David Weir in T1 was a setback for Gers, and coming out after halftime at 2-1 down, Glassjaw had firmly fixed 3-3 as their target for regulation time, hoping for the break in OT.
Strangers continued their recent high-scoring form (hell, scoring at all had been a problem in past seasons) but 2 goals just wasn't enough against a skilful Woodie team. Taking risks for the 3rd equaliser meant leaving Gers exposed to the counter which Spurs snapped up easily.
All-in-all, it was a cracker of a cup-tie and i can't complain about losing it. Looking back through the history, Strangers have only played woodies twice and lost 0-3, 2-4, so i guess they need to brush up on their defensive skills.

Well Malerun takes the League Cup Final 2-1 after Extra Time.
Congratulations to the man so scary he makes men run away from him
A close game overall but after the first half it looked a bit unlikely that Bulton would get back into it after the Nobles dominated the first 8 turns.
Second half saw one of the Nobles sent off and a mighty Mummy slain with no regen, allowing the Bulton side to run in an equaliser against a stretched Noble defence.
Extra time saw the Nobles recieve and with a two man advantage they made sure they pounded the Bulton weaklins into the ground and ran in an easy score in 3 turns. |

Also, I'm thinking to do some fluff, which will reference a reserves match, methinks. Possibly some blood and deaths... Hopefully some amusement. Would any OBBA teams like to volunteer for us to use your names? Free publicity and an e-cookie for yes answers . |

Tottenham 3-2 B93
Tottenham Blodgespur secured their place in the OBBA cup final at the weekend in a typical elven matchup which saw 5 goals.
2 goals from Adebayor and a chip from Kyle Walker from 30 yards were enough to see off a good, but outclassed Elf side in B93, despite the blatant use of a wizard which the referee 'didnt see'...
When will Fifa finally see sense and allow video technology in to the game? GRRR at Pyth Blatter....
(note, this is not really football Grit- it is Braad Brawl!)
With B93 unable to do any damage with their mighty blow midfield enforcer, it was left to AG5 leaper Adebayor to rule the game througout, who nicked a goal against the run of play in the first half and leapt to victory in the 2nd.

Anfield Anvils 1 - 0 FC Kaiserslaughtering
Keizerschlaughtering ended their impressive debut run in the OBBA last night by smashing head first into the steel wall also known as dwarves. The humans arrived to the match with a single guard player and he only played for 1 turn, the rest of the match was agonising futility for FCK as the Anvils proved impossible to shift or hurt.
Good luck to the elfs in the final. |

Any clues as to what ball park the TV cap will be in the bottom league this year?
I am considering if I should keep Bulton or try a race thats a litle bit more fun. Not really sure and trying to see what the cap will do to Bulton before I make up my mind. |

Russo,
Will do some math when I get back from New York on Friday. Am too drunk at present, and all the numbers here seem FAR TOO BIG... |
