The Sporting League
Season 2010 – 11
Game 1
The league retured after the summer break with the newly installed Pointeso gaffer demanding wholesale squad improvements. Ninth position last year was way under par. I haven’t done too much work in the transfer market over the summer because I believe the existing squed can take us to the next level with a top five finish.’
Unfortunately for Pointeso, the boss had to endure a dire performance against Sporting Athlete as they went down by two goals to one in their curtain raiser.
Champions Universo were held to a draw against transitional giants Athletico…Last years third placed squad Tranquilayers came back from a goal to sink Drakens by two goals to one…Sporting Radio Punit X: ‘I thought a lot of the sides looked lean and mean after the break. Tranquilayers have got a bit of urgency about them when the ol’ chips are down, so I can see them being in contention again.’
Pundit Y: ‘So, did ya enjoy the Tranquilayers golf courses over the summer?’
‘Oh aye, always get meself round the ol’ eighteen holes and bottles of champers to boot…don’t you worry about me sonny.’
Punit Y: ‘Well I was walkin’ to the studio this morning through Sporting City zone 34.5 and, I don’t know, you get a real sense about everyone you meet that the season has started…I get a feelin’ that Pointeso might cause a few surprises this year.’
Pundit X: ‘The boss needs to get shut, trust me. I would have cleared the decks and started again. Too much ill discipline for my liking…’
