Sporting League: Game 4 Preview

Pundit A: ‘Well I’m lookin’ at the game of the day with first and second placed Novia and Red Star what d’ya think of that one eh?’

Pundit B: ‘Can’t be sure to be honest. They’ve got history – make no bones about it but I just get a bit of a feeling that it could be a draw. I was down at the Novia ground the other day actually. Ye remember that guy, erm, he was working on the tills a couple of years back, really chatty bloke?’

Pundit A: ‘Oh aye, I couldn’t get away…’

Pundit B: ‘Well, yeah, he’s only gone and gotten himself on the board! That’s what I love about Novia – the class divide isn’t as strong as most clubs and that include our champagne socialist types Universo Collunteen.’

Pundit A: ‘Ok, Ok, back to the games- I’m lookin’ at the table and see Tranquilayers at the bottom, have they got their work cut out for themselves against Universo?

Pundit B: ‘It’s the rich versus the so called poor. I don’t get all this working class Universo talk, I mean it was a run down area back in the 80’s but it’s a bit of an intellectual hub nowadays. The match? Well, I can see Universo winning that one, not by much, but Tranquilayers just haven’t got themselves out of the traps yet.’

Pundit A: ‘Bayerns won’t have any problems against Colne. I’m going to be going over to that game ye know? Gets m’self a good round of golf in the mornin’, the races in the afternoon and the match in the evenin – love me visits to the Bayerns.’

Pundit B: ‘Will I get the perks if I get your job when you call it a day?’ Studio laughter.

Pundit A: ‘Come back in twenty years and ask that question again son.’

Pundit B: ‘Yop Lane. I hear they were talking about an easy win against Sporting Athlete even though they beat a strong Athletico side, do you think there’s a bit too much disrespect coming out of the Yop press office?’

Pundit A: ‘I think they’ve got a good mentality. I’m doin’ an after dinner speech down there next week, it’s gonna be one of those high brow affairs. I’m only gonna be sayin’ good things about about them, they really put on a good show down there. As for the match, well, could be a draw mate.’
