FATHER MARTIN AND SAMWISE GANGEE – 7.5/10 – A classic MON rinsing of the starting line-up after a
rinsing in Europe. Only a couple of questions remain – why no Paulo (has he been running about with the GB?) and why no Shin? You could probably add Jackie Inamura to that, too. But I’m not sure if Martin’s aware of many players outside those he’s utilised in the past four games. Getting on a bit…
But the motivational edge doesn’t seem to have faltered and along with Shaun and mad Fozzie he got the best out of a beleaguered squad and the best result we could have hoped for after the midweek trauma.
The booking for Daizen Maeda is classic Don Robertson. Refereeing what he thinks he has seen rather than reality. Incredible decision. 😂 pic.twitter.com/jBikv6LVqo

MIBBERY – 5/10 – Can’t beat a good clown show on a Sunday afternoon and The Don produced a few pratfalls to entertain the crowd. Or incense. And I don’t mean he lit some aromatic material…What he did light was a fuse that he was lucky didn’t set off dynamite and end up with some players lost in a red mist:
Calmac booked for executing a textbook sliding tackle on Tony Ralston…And Daizen, hustled early on for standing perfectly legitimately within range of Plug, then booked later on for standing perfectly legitimately within range of James Brown (the mince James Brown, godfather of rectums ) re-enacting a Platoon death scene. Luckily, for Robertson, the game was well-won or he’d be sitting on his couch, lights-out, tonight waiting for the Yakuza to knock on his door…Citrus chump.
Continues on the next page…
“Now is the(winter) season of our discontent.”
Despite the off field upheavals and on field injuries and tepid performances we are still in contention for another domestic treble.
For what it’s worth a place in the next phase of the Euro league not out of reach.
BR having added to the trophy haul despite the approbation of a section of the support and the board is now enjoying the sunshine somewhere.
It’s only 10th of Nov.
Time to catch a breath and perhaps join MON in the darkened room.
It’s a long road has no turning.
.Hail Hail.
