40+ Veteran Barry Sampson finally came good in his 4th game of the campaign, picking up the man of the match medallion and bagging a brace in the Glasshouse's 14-0 victory over bottom of the table opposition.
With only 3 league games played to date, finally the Glasshouse returned to league action and moved into 3rd spot with an impressive 14-0 victory over South Bristol. The Glass were quick out of the blocks with goals from Jammer, Tays, Sammo and an OG after a quick free-kick was awarded for 'crazy kicking'.
South Bristol had no way out of their half and their best player on the day was the Sun, blinding the Glass back 4 Oatway commented "the sun was blinding, so I looked to my right, but then the shine off Smithy's head was worse, I was confused as to what was going on and my touch suffered for it".
The Glass ran up a couple more goals in the 1st half to go in 6 up, Brown unfortunate not to open his season's account when a 30 yard twist and turn volley was tipped over by the away custodian.
The 2nd half got underway with the Glass still totally dominant. Longy and Dog were the only 2 playing in the back 4 whilst Lurch and Smithy played a game of who could stand in the same spot the longest without having to move.
Jammer rounded off his hatrick, Dog notched from the penalty spot, Buxton scored when his cross was missed by all and drifted into the net, Taylor converting another spot kick to hit his hatrick, Sammo notched his 2nd, and Turner finally scored having squandered several chances on as sub.
The young Sam Long was having an outstanding day at LB and caught the eye of a few young lady spectators whilst Jammer added goals number four and five, with the latter being a 35 yard volley that left the keeper wishing he had stayed in bed watching Columbo and his crazy eye.
At long last the ref blew his whistle to put the electronic scoreboard out of its misery, never had it gone so high. The Glasshouse contingent took down the one remaining set of goal posts, unknown to all but Urch had finished packing up the other set at the start of the 2nd half before retiring to his deck-chair and portable cocktail bar.
The opposition left the pitch blaming the loss on their 4-2-4 formation and the referee for awarding 2 controversial penalties and a free-kick for 'Crazy Kicking', law 14 section C paragraph zero.
Man of the match went to Barry Sampson. Sammo showed that age is not a disability, form is not the future, a step over is as good as a pass, and white boots make even the biggest men look gay!
The gaffer will have his work cut out this week selecting from an ever increasing squad. The premature talk of open-top-bus celebrations is attracting more unwanted mercenaries, shoe you cling-ons, shoe.
Apparently managers like to have these headaches... |
