“Despite the big-spending gobbos of Mancheater City having an all star-line up, their derby rivals, Bulton Wanderers, had the right blend of rugged defenders and skilfull attackers to neuter the green skinned over-paid stars.

Indeed a neutering it was with half of the City side off the pitch within 6 turns and a sometimes low scoring side managing to run 4 in by the end of play. Indeed it could have been 5 if not for a fumbble within a square of the TD line at the death.

Three of the flair players of Bulton accumulated 57 rushing metres collectively to set up and score all four TD's. McGinley and Gardner getting a brace each and Stelios being influential with his assists.

Dirty Jaaskelainen avoided being spotted by the ref for two fouls, but showed his commitment to the team by risking his neck to ensure the slippery skilfull attackers of Mancheater could not get up off the ground after their theatrical dives.

Mancheater did contribute a moment of exquisite skill when Stefan Savic scored from an over-dwarf goblinchip by De Jong; Savic found his feet like the agile chap he is and raced home for a consolation TD.

Well played a fun game and lots of non-perms to ensure you can beat all my nearest rivals now :-)”
