Grizzlies go down, with a fight

 

Killa sick, Scotty at a P & F wine and cheese night and Ned and Floppsy still to make an appearance the Grizzlie line up was:

Cheesey, Green Togs, Max and Martian

Gaffers, Lynchy, Big Nob and Crusty

On the other side of the pool we faced off against 8 or so equally fat and ugly TSDCers. We've had a couple of dicey games with these guys but they're normally all right but tonight they must have been on their rags or the dog had kicked them as they were leaving cos they were bloody agro in the water.

Game got off at a frantic pace not helped by the fact that we were a shambles on the side of the pool with only five in the water when the whistle went. TSDC got an early goal which then allowed us to settle down, organise ourselves and get positions sorted out. Didn't help us much though as they got the next goal. Can't really remember how the goals went but I do remember getting clobbered a lot. The upside on this was that the Silver Back got two minutes to chat to the time keeper not that it helped us much though. Despite some good individual performances we seemed not to get over our initial disarray and failed to gel, constantly being hammered by two white sticks whenever we got the puck probably didn't help much. That's just my take on the game in which I failed to really get going an whenever I did I lost it and subbed out before I clocked someone.

The pub was slightly better, at least they were open and still serving beer when we got there. No food and a general lack of atmosphere though does not make it enticing. May have to consider our options, maybe a slab of Killkenny at Mykonos...........
