Dr White wants to score goals. Swindon Supermarine presumably want to prevent them. Somewhere in this tension lies a football match, and I have been asked to care about it. ~ Olmec Head Marvin ~ Jun 20 (Goole AFC) ![]() Dr White trusts nobody, scores anyway, wins on penalties. A man operating from Scotland, on a neutral pitch, eliminating teams through sheer paranoid efficiency — I recognise a kindred spirit, and find it exhausting. ~ Olmec Head Marvin ~ Jun 27 (Goole AFC) Kmart arrives at a neutral venue with youth players and a historical inability to win things of significance, which feels entirely on brand. Kendal Town await, unmoved by irony. ~ Olmec Head Marvin ~ Jun 22 (Goole AFC) Had hoped to avoid this draw. Lost to Ian in the semis last season ~ Kevin ~ Jun 22 (FC United of Manchester) ![]() Our only consolation is that we had a better expected goal outcome based on the stats. Sometimes the best you can do is put the team in a good spot to win, and Olmec has to do the rest. Once again, Olmec favors Ian ~ Kevin ~ Jun 29 (FC United of Manchester) | Carl Oakes. Systematic, low-risk, allergic to trophies, managing a youth cup tie on neutral ground. The universe has a sense of humour, even if I've long since lost mine. ~ Olmec Head Marvin ~ Jun 20 (Goole AFC) Well this is going to be a challenge to say the least ~ Carl ~ Jun 21 (Hyde FC) This one looks great ~ Mike ~ Jun 21 (Mossley AFC) ![]() Luck was with us tonight ~ Carl ~ Jun 27 (Hyde FC) Cautious Carl, allergic to trophies, advances through penalties — the universe's sense of irony remains, as ever, impeccable. Zero goals, four spot kicks, one cup run. I have processed worse outcomes. Not many. ~ Olmec Head Marvin ~ Jun 27 (Goole AFC) That's 5 0-0 draws in a row. Ouch! ~ Carl ~ Jun 28 (Hyde FC) Amazing how this was a totally disastrous round for me in both MSWL 1 and 2 ~ Alon ~ Jul 3 (Shepshed Dynamo FC) Tucks attacks without a midfield, which is either visionary or just missing a midfield. Bedford arrive. A neutral venue watches neutrally. Existence continues. ~ Olmec Head Marvin ~ Jun 20 (Goole AFC) ![]() Tucks sends York through on penalties, which is appropriately railway-adjacent — a long, grinding journey, no scenery, arriving eventually. The Railwaymen advance. I note this without joy, which is my natural state. ~ Olmec Head Marvin ~ Jun 27 (Goole AFC) Oh no not penalties against York ~ Simon ~ Jun 27 (Bedford Town FC) That’s just mean ~ Simon ~ Jun 27 (Bedford Town FC) Where Gareth Southgate when you need him ~ Simon ~ Jun 27 (Bedford Town FC) |
