The Green Army March on as Soccernight bids a Farewell to Tor!


Well as I got into my car after the game tonight and started to ponder the evenings match and I thought about what a great game the Greens had, Wes the rock in defence....Pete, Tor and Dan running the colours defence ragged.....Geir pulling the strings in midfield....James running the left line....and I thought what a way for Tor to sign off!! But then I passed a group of ladies dressed as bunnies and I'm not going to lie to you the game clear went out of my mind.......after I regained my composure and control of my car my thoughts returned to the game. So why did the greens come out on top?, the colours had a good line up and worked hard all night.....you would take an attacking line of Rich, Chibb, Zak and Daz any day of the week...and a midfield and defence of Guy, Joe and Fraser and Barry (original founder Barry). The Colours had enough possession and attacking play but weren't able to unlock the Greens hardened defence with Wesley Terry at its helm.
As I got home I flung myself onto the sofa my thoughts again moved to the bunnies I had passed on my way home but they soon moved onto food.....I was hungry as f**k!! After consuming some prawn crackers I again wondered why the greens seemed to control a game of what I'd class as very equal teams....and the conclusion I came to was the end product. When it came to finishing at the business end of the pitch the Greens had the edge....and it was the creating of chances that led to this...the times I would see intricate passing between Pete, Dan, Geir and Dan to create openings and chances.....it was Arsenal-esq at times.
Rich was clearly not happy with the Colours attacking play, though it wasn't completely fruitless...Zak was a constant danger and Darren was putting in a battling performance, Guy was putting in a as always reassured performance in the middle. Towards the end Joe moved up front for the colours to add some more options up front for the colours.
Now by this point I had removed myself from the sofa and had found myself at the computer, checking emails, facebook etc etc....and I thought, well shall I write a blog...I am becoming concerned that I appear to the only person who writes on here...and quite possibly the only person who reads it...but then I thought hang on Mark...tonights match report needs to told, it was Tors final game....and that's when it struck me, the reason the Greens won tonight was because we had Tor....the guy signed off in style!!! It was already written, we were mere puppets in a game where the a path had already been written.
And now I find myself sitting in front of the computer in a darkened room (which is clearly not doing my eyes any favours) talking about f**king puppets and destiny and stinking of deep heat, haha. This is where I end this blog and hit the shower. Good game!!
