Carlos has named his new-born son Andres or is that Andreas, Andre, Andros or Andrex? All of which are used by various Romans to incorrectly address his Argentinian namesake!
Hint: Think Iniesta.
Speaking of names……..
Things you never thought you’d hear No 1.
“I’m just like Walcott”.
Mike ‘Theo’ Woodhead explaining his one-touch finish against Northchurch.
“The talents here!” Mass on arrival at the County Cup game v Royston.
Speaking of kit, new boy Nurul kept very quiet about working right opposite Posh Wash (handy to know Mass).
Did I already mention speaking of memory?
Speaking of kit again, Luke found comfort after Saturday’s defeat in the fact that, having been told to leave the pitch by the ref for having the wrong colour underwear, he merely rolled them up (thong style I suspect) before rejoining the game which was a “win” in his eyes.
Speaking of wins, the big winner this week was Rudy who, somehow, avoided a yellow card for worst tackle of the game merely by walking away from the scene of the crime and mingling with players on the edge of the box!
Reason No. 1 why not to stand around arguing with referees!
Romans have a few new players this season. In The Unknown Roman’s days (circa 58AD) new gladiators always used to say “up front” when asked their preferred starting position.
These days the answer is invariably “centre mid” so it was good to hear of excellent full debuts from centre mids Doni Jones and Thomas “Shents” Shenton……. at right back and centre back!
Missing/Lost this week (apart from Bereket)
Boots – Rob
Shinpads – Ghokan
Ring – Rob
Kit – Mass (did I mention that?)
Two new keepers who said they were coming to training.
A win!
Next week sees reverse league fixtures for both teams that last time saw 12 goals 1 clean sheet and 6 points.
What could possibly go wrong?
