The Albion were sent crashing out of the Surrey Cup, following a 4-2 loss to Epsom Rangers. The game was not without incident and as such we have a packed Henri Leconte and MOM this week.
In the “Man of the Match†stakes, Harry was third with a single vote, Josh and Stew tied second with 2 apiece but the winner and with both Albion goals was Charlie with 5 votes.
Despite the linesman flagging every single time The Albion attacked, he only registered a single vote in the Henri Leconte voting.  However, this wasn’t the only vote the opposition collected. “Tubes†from Soccer AM playing the “Dave Role†for Epsom picked up a vote from Dave himself for a languid performance during which he managed to cover even less ground than a normal “Dave Role†performance.
And it wouldn’t be Henri Leconte without a mention of either Jade or Walter, and it is the latter who picked up a couple of votes for texting me at 4.10am asking if the game was still on.
Charlie was a whisker away from taking the double this week and I bet he left not knowing how close he actually was to winning this week’s Henri Leconte.
It seems Charlie’s pink boots reared their ugly head again by splitting on him during the game; this is despite apparently once being on sale for £130 (Charlie paid £20). The boots themselves were discarded in a bin liner outside of the changing rooms and left to be forever forgotten. It wasn’t long before they drew a crowd people, all of whom were trying to work out what they actually were, where they were from and who in their right mind would wear such footwear.
It’s seems the 2015/16 season will forever be remembered as “Year of the Coatâ€. Earlier in the season, Charlie was mentioned in these awards for wearing fishing attire to a football match and coincidentally he and Will were both sporting their fishing jackets during this week’s warm-up. However, wanting to go one better and winning this week’s Henri Leconte was Nick Milne who turned up looking like the 5th member of the Libertines, wearing a military style pea coat during the warm-up.
IT AIN’T THAT COLD LADS, BUY A BASE LAYER, PUT SOME TIGER BALM ON IF YOU HAVE TO BUT STOPPING WEARING COATS DURING THE WARM-UP.
