| Start of Season Thoughts |
| This season we aim to finish in the top 3, which should be possible as although White Lions lost all their games, they stayed up due to the virtue of teams dropping out from the divisions above. Anywhere in the top 3 is my goal and a marked improvement in our play, even if we lose all our games. Our secret weapon is back this season, Coley is ready to pull on the official Sharp Shooters jersey. |

| SS 2 - White Lions 0 16th Oct 2006 |
| This week we played the White Lions again and it was a game of 4 penalties (all the same reason), due to a new rule that came in this week.
The match started well, as we were full of confidence following our 5 – 0 against them last week.. We were playing fairly well, but unfortunately conceded a penalty to our complete surprise. The reason being is that Dave (gk) drop kicked the ball out (which now isn’t allowed), but as weren’t told no one knew .They missed their penalty, then Dave did it again, doh, but fortunately Dave saved it. We then went down the other end and got our 1st own penalty, which Paul missed, but alas it wasn’t out last. A few minutes after that we got our 2nd penalty and Andy slotted it away. This clouded a decent first half for us, which we restricted there chances to very few. The 2nd half was slightly less eventful and pressed them well. We looked like the better side, but with our dominance we only scored 1 goal, a shot from Paul which the keeper let through his hands. Overall a good performance, but a game of 4 penalties. |

| This week we played Samba FC in a make shift line up as Dave (ill) & Andy (Disney Land Paris) were unavailable.
We started ok with us matching Samba FC, a team that we feared due to there record in the previous season and from word of mouth. During this half we managed to create a couple of decent opportunities which we should have scored, including a clear cut chance from Steve. We went into half time 2 0 down, as we conceded two sloppy but well worked goals. In the 2nd half we held our own and restricted the damage to just the two. With both teams creating chances it was a surprise that there weren’t more goals scored. Overall a disappointing result, because although we lost we weren’t outplayed. I think it was a fair result, although most of my team disagree with that. Next week One Half Wonders……. |

| This week we played One Half Wonders (OHW’s), a team which was an unknown quantity before the game. All we knew was that they finished 2nd in the division below last season.
The match started badly with the OHW’s taking the lead after one of there forwards beat me and shot into the bottom corner. From my very good angle I thought this was in the box, but the ref didn’t agree and the goal stood. During the early stages of this half we were rang ragged by there two good, quick forwards and they scored another one. At 2 – 0 down we started to come back with some intricate plays resulting in shots from me, Tom & Paul, but alas no goals again. The icing on the cake of this half was a penalty decision for the back pass rule (Dave to Andy to Dave), which they converted. The 2nd half we were more solid and only conceded the one goal, this was due to lack of numbers at the back whilst we were searching for a way back into this match. With this approach we let them create chances and have more space, but also created more shots our self, although none clear cut. Overall a goodish performance and although we were beaten comfortably, we held our own. Next week we play the White Lions and hopefully that should be another 3 points……. |
