Albion continued their rollercoaster season by recovering from last week’s league loss to Westminster, winning the Marcus Lipton first round fixture 3-0.
Chaz – “Has anyone seen me tackle?”
At times the forward play was a joy to watch, whilst the backline produced a “robust†display denying the opposition any time on the ball and dealing with the barrage of high balls.
“Man of the Match†produced one stand out performance, Will Carlile picking up 7 votes for a Billy Bremner display, snapping away at the heels of the opposition like a demented Jack Russell as well as producing numerous moments of quality whilst in possession.
Charlie came second with 2 votes, whilst Aleks and Walter picked up a vote a piece.
Some quality voting for this week’s “Henri Leconteâ€, Walter picked up 2 votes – one for his “casual and relaxed arrivalâ€, despite being 20 minutes late and also by paying his subs with a dubious looking £50 note. Will C also featured with a vote for “losing his testes†after taking one in the knackers and Dave Mc picked up his obligatory vote for returning to stake another claim on the “Dave roleâ€.
However, the second place and first place both went to Chaz. Firstly (and my favourite), he picked up a couple of votes for coming to the game and warming up in a fishing anorak. However, his oxymoronic “winner†was for the absolute sitter his missed – although we cannot be sure if it was the first half one or the second half one!
