Own goal

 

European league

loses one of its members;

self-inflicted wound.

 

by Scooj

 

Unlike the 51.8% in the UK today, I feel a huge sense of loss. The tolerant, stable and inclusive world my children have grown up in is under real threat. I dearly hope they will be a part of ensuring we continue to embrace our European neighbours in the years to come.

May the best team win

 

The best of friends…the

worst of enemies, go in

to battle today.

Euro 2016

 

All predictors are

in place; there’s no going back,

let battle commence.

The Bristol Rovers

roar carries on the light breeze

across the suburbs.

The Match (part two)

 

On the train home to

Bristol feeling euphoric;

well done you Gunners

The Match (part one)

 

Heading to London

anxious anticipation

come on you Gunners.

Game

 

It’s not the losing

that hurts; it is the manner

in which it is lost.

AFC 2 – MCFC 1

 

We score, the crowd roars;

behind, ‘potty-mouth’ curses

for the entire game.
