Bloody Saturday Soccer!!

Well it wasn't too bad, I didn't get hurt for a change.
The important thing is we won 5-4 (1 goal from me!) and we were playing 5 a side, which is an absolute bitch because you are running like a bastard the whole time.
Playing in those conditions its easy to get carried away and try to REALLY give a 110%. My team mate Ross decided that with 5 minutes to go while we were 5 - 3, that Tyson must not score a goal that still would have meant we would have won (if you follow my meaning... it wasn't that big a deal if Tyson scored).
So in a last ditch attempt, Ross slides in to bloke the ball and collects himself on the goal post, and let the goal through anyway...

Poor old Ross, a very nasty cut and a trip to the hospital for stiches. The lesson here is that saturday soccer is all about fun, its about forgetting your troubles for a while and enjoying the company of your friends.
From time to time, its okay to let a goal through.

Ross should be back in action in a week or two.
