Official Results, Game 1

It was a lopsided battle on the isle of Guernsey today. The Ormers may have won 4-0, but a heroic effort on the defensive side of the ball, even in the face of insurmountable odds, is what everyone is talking about. If Jersey can climb back in this, they will owe it all to Spank for keeping it close with an astounding 13 blocks. They don't call him the Spanktopus for no reason.

On the offensive side, SoSG's own Hideo Nomo scores the hat trick, and Mr. LA Sports Czar nets a goal, as well.

And now, for administrative matters.


Several players who nearly succumbed to exhaustion have petitioned the league for a reduced game duration. The commissioner concurs with this proposal. Future fixtures are to be 15 minutes in length. As for the stat sheet, I think the score should stand as-is. If it comes down to 2 goal difference, we'll discuss what is a fair solution at that time.

The second proposal, in light of participation and "work" schedules, is that the Alderney team be contracted into the Jersey and Guernsy. There is wisdom in this, but there needs to be an impartial method to assign them. Fellow Sots, please comment in this thread. If the last digit of your comment URL is odd, you'll be added to Jersey. If it is even (or 0), suit up with Guernsey. When one team has three players, the remaining players will be assigned to the opposite team. Any questions/objections?

As if it weren't confusing enough. Are you going to show a new lineup so we know who is on each team?

MR.F said...

I have no idea what's going on, but I'll be playing today!

@MB

Yes, a lineup is going up shortly. We'll lose the game at the end of the week, too, with only 2 teams.
