In the middle of the night....i go walking in my blog...

Hello everyone! Unfortunately this will be the last Skidmarks related post for awhile as The Ginja Ninja has officially played his last game for the Skidmarks (but has not ruled out a return in the distant future). The Skidmarks have been taken over by a massive German consortium called The Baby Rhino Corporation and it believed that as the Germans have no sense of humour, the blog shall not be continued. I will try re-use the blog to keep to posted about the news from the brothers Hatfield in the town of London. As you know Gary has been there for a month nearly including 10 days in Tenerife, please see pictures below....




The Skidmarks did enter a pre-season tournament before the season officially began....we performed rather well qualifying for the last 16 by winning 2 games and drawing 1. Ginja Ninja getting 2 goals and Mike "The Doctor" Gerrard the other one...unfortunately Barney was injured 5 minutes into the 1st game and could no longer take part in the tournament. Even though he told us he would be back as soon as he got some stitches....see pic below...

We were knocked out 1-0 in the last 16,rather unluckily if i do say so myself. However it was a good warm-up for our season.

RESULT : THE MIGHTY SKIDMARKS 1 -1 il forca

We were pitted against old time rivals Il Forca aka Moaning little porra's in our first game...it was a tight game which finished 1-1. There was a lot of niggly tackles by the porra's which resultes in 3 sin bins for them, we however could not punish them for their indiscretions, Luke "Ginja Ninja" Hatfield got the goal with a penalty (toe poked i might add)

This weeks game was unfortunately called off due to Mbambo being a bunch a scared little girls, we did play a friendly against Euro Utd, beating them 13-1 with goals from Dom "Baby Rhino" Albrecht(4),Ginja Ninja (3),Bruce "Singles" Andersen(3),Mike "Middlesborugh" Lyndon (1),1 X Own goals....and yes u NEVER guessed it Peter "Pele" Dunias getting his second goal in the colours of the Skidmarks (Red & White are the colour by the way).

I would say "he couldn't miss" after Dom squared him the ball and he was half a metre out with an open goal....but he has done it before....and to round it off it was the opening goal of the game...well done Greek!

Next weeks fixture is vs Ryan at 18:30....Dom will be organising the team from now on....good luck and always remember, keep it real, keep it brown!
