Burridge 4 - 3 Gems

Sunday 9th October

Venue: Burridge

Burridge entertained newly promoted Gems who had suffered an 11 - 0 mauling at the hands of Lee on Solent in the Hampshire Cup last week. Whilst Burridge manager Maurice Hewlett - last seen in a pool of his own stale vomit - was conspicuous in his absence after taking a beating from a bottle of Southern Comfort the night previous. Although Burridge didn't reach double figures - they certainly could have. Rich Allan (who later made amends) managed to send the ball skywards from point blank range.

Scott Burnet was proving to be the ideal foil for his midfield partner Greg Baker; who in turn was having a strong influence on the game with his neat passing, that led to 3 of Burridge's goals. Rich Allan made it one nil -after another miss - when he had the freedom of the penalty area before drilling home.

In the second half, Lee Fielder comfortably rounded the keeper and made it two, before Paul Andrews ended a good passing move with a net bulging emphatic finish. This appeared to be good night, but this is Burridge afterall, who insisted of making a game of it, and within fifteen minutes Gems were level. The game refused to end quietly though and in the last minute Burridge were awarded a free kick on the edge of the penalty area. Rich Allan avoided the wall giving Burridge heart palpatations and victory.

3-5-2: Dave Hopkins, Paul Dyke, Ross Bryant, Mark Sanderson, Jay Schwodler, Greg Baker, Scott Burnet, Bryn Schwodler, Paul Andrews, Lee Fielder


AFC Spotted Cow 4-0AFC Paxton

PS Rich Allan needs £39 on Wednesday from those who have yet to pay for training, he's good enough to arrange it for us, so try not to forget.
Thanks.

hi kids, Wossie here again with another compawison of Buwwidge matches to popular tv shows

Happy Days

Not least for the fact that a Buwwidge victowy is indeed a happy day for all concerned

Greg 'the fonz' Baker led the cast superbly with cutting passes weminiscent of the rapier like wit of the leading man Indeed were it not for the poor comic timing of Richard 'Ralph Malph' Allan in front of goal, the show would have been over long before the break, however it was his goal which gave buwwidge the half time lead.
The selfless performances of Lee 'pottsy' fielder, playing the straight man with remarkable effect, and paul ' big al' andrews further increased buwwidges lead to a surely unassaible 3-0 advantage. However it was at this point where buwwidge lost the plot in a Fonzie jumping the shark on his surfboard sort of way, and found themselves hauled back to 3-3 with barely minutes to go. Buwwidge were then awarded a free kick and up stepped 'Ralph' Allan to steal the show with a wicked curling goal.

also, on the Happy days theme, has anyone else noticed the underlying joanie and chachie sexual tension between dykey and ross.........
