New season
Today was the first match of the season for my beloved Comber Star. We got promoted despite finishing 3rd last season thanks to the entry of new teams to the league.
There was much mirth before the match as we put on our new kit, a nice red and black number only with pink numbers on the back and pink lettering of the sponsor on the front! To make matters worse the shirt pretty much drowns me, mind most do and with it being an unusually hot day for September I had to roll my sleeves up, which kept falling down – grrrrrrrrr!
Anyway, we were unable to break our pre season run and lost 5-2 despite having 3 great chances before half time, twice hitting the crossbar and once cleared off the line. How do you stop a losing streak? Answers on a postcard please.
To make matters worse as I left the pitch I heard the news that United lost 2-1 to Liverpool. Isn’t football a funny game? I watched Liverpool the other week against Villa and thought what a distinctly average team, how the hell did they beat United? I guess watching Match of the Day tonight will reveal all while I drown my sorrows in the bottle of Sauvignon Blanc I bought on the way home.
