It's good to hear they've assembled a new squad and will be competitive. Cap 4 and 5 aren't very different so if it had been more of the same - apparently they'd struggled all season - it would have been a long 2008. Hopefully they picked up a new keeper too. It wasn't that he was bad, but he was what could only call eccentric. He roared at full volume everytime he tried to close down a player and wasted so much time lying face down in the mud, refusing to get up and play on. With around 10 minutes to go he switched to defence, continued roaring at opponents and about the 85th-ish minute jumped on top of one of our players to get himself sent off. No-one on our team could figure out why he'd done it. He'd yelled something about leaving someone alone, but nothing had actually happened. Neither team showed much enthusiasm for the game after that. The chap was heard boasting after the game that "I told you I'd get sent off one more time before retiring" to someone on thr sidelines, so we figured he'd planned it.
Don't mistake the tone of my posting. I wasn't gloating merely stating the facts. I only touched the ball four times all game and had nothing to gloat about.
