Understrength Kawabanga Triumph

Guys after a series of undeserved defeat today we witnessed a well played and deserving victory over what was a relatively strong team on paper..Infact the scoreline of 6-2 was flattering for the opponents.With the number of wrong offside calls and other major bad decisions by the non existent referee the margin should have been much greater..First i would like to congratulate each and everyone that played coz today victory everyone played a major role..Special Praise for Siva who helped himself to 3 assist, Vijay for a well taken hatrick, Anand for his man of the match performance, Vino for making fantastic saves in the first half and watching the magic show during the second and Abi for his outfield debut goal and lasting almost 90mins..Best goal will have to be given to anand's drive from a brilliant setup by Siva..Vish opening his account after a dry spell this season with a well placed acute shot after rounding the keeper which hopefully will boost his confidence for the upcoming games..Raji looking sharp and slowly getting on with his galloping runs down the centre..Dinesh, Naga and Pream for a solid defensive display not giving the opponents any time on the ball at all..Keerthi dishing out a solid performance after his 21km run.Simply Unbelievable..It was a game of 2 halves and he truly played with class and attitude..As Vino mentioned can we start playing like we did today..Haha..Anyways today was a fruitful outing considering the team being severely understrength and of course the free food..Too bad Vino and Pream missed it..Ok guys thumbs up and lets carry this morale boosting form into our next game..visit the blog more often and drop more positive comments..Good to see more names on the cbox.I'll text u'll regarding the MdIS league tomorrow so those committing pls keep $30 ready..Ok fellas have a gr8 week..

Recruitment Drive 08

Guys as we'll know the squad is becoming rather thin due to some of our players not being able to commit due to personal and other reasons like serving the nation..Hence we as a team shall be on the look out for talent and recruit immediately when we spot one..Pls feel free to bring down any player who u think will be of good use to the team or give me a lead and i shall act on it..Doesnt have to be a fantastic player..Someone decent and team oriented will be sufficient..I hope all will help me out coz we need to bring our numbers up to 20 atleast.Doesnt necessarily have to be indian but will be better if it is coz we're all tamilan unless they dun mind..Take note we need a striker badly and a defensive player as well..But all others are welcome..The more the merrier..Our scouts are hovering over Shooters FC and we'll make a formal bid to team manager murali when the time is rite..haha..ok so guys keep a look out and join in the recruitment..thanks.

Immediate response needed

Guys as we all know our league is coming to an end in september and it only resumes in January according to my close sources..I truly believe that if we're gonna be engaging in friendly for 3 months it'll not get us anywhere..So i'm in negotiation with the organisers of the MDIS league which began last week..there is a possibility that we can be added as the last team if i can give them a positive reply by end of the week..Now i shall give u'll the details of the league..its an amateur league consisting of 7 teams..We'll get 12 games and trophy if we're top 3..No cash prize because of the low fees..Games will be held on either sat or sun at 3pm..Ok assuming all of you'll commit it will be abt 60 per person for 12games.($5 a game).If there is any additional money vish will accumulate for our AFL 09 season.From what i've spoken with the organiser the best payment option is two installments so i will be able to collect $30 first and another $30 later on..the league will stretch til late Nov probably just in time for us to go back to AFL in january..Ok now i need some response from you'll so that i can make a decision asap and secure the place..Just leave a comment under this post..To make things simple those who cant commit but can come for some games pls pay vishnu or myself $8 per game.Those who commit enjoy the rate of $5 per game..Ok firstly i just want to know the response from u fellas..If ya think its not worth it and friendly is a better option feel free to express your views.Once atleast 12 players are positive i'll proceed with the arrangements..I need an answer by Sat so act fast boys..Thanks.
