Bit of a fistling |
Gmswjambo grimaces as he sees striker Aymar leave the field. He's lasted 10 minutes agaist Therranti Fistle, but he's fallen awkwardly and is coming off. Veteran all-rounder Christian Vreven comes on for a rare run-out.
Jambo is not convinced Vreven is going to match the youngster's performance levels, Given his fondness for playing Call of Duty into the wee small hours and preference for a game of pool with the reserves over training with the big-boys, the manager is surprised that the oldster waited until this season before announcing his attention to retire.
Right enough, Vreven gives a pretty shoddy account of himself. Gmswjambo ponders the question of booting him early. Trouble is, with the squad numbering only 15, an all-rounder is always handy to have on the bench.
Seven minutes later, Fistle take the lead. It's a lead they won't surrender - Lisieux fail to threaten all game, and trundle back off to Normandy with zero points for their sorry excuse for an effort. Were it not for Conkelberry, it might well have been something of a fistling.
In the wake of the loss Gmswjambo decided to dip into the bargain basement of the transfer market and pick up a cheap youngsters that has good farming potential. Igarashi Shimisaki has a good shot on him for a 17 year-old, and with 4 bars of skill would be expected to fetch more than the five figures shelled out for him.
Fans had been hoping for a big signing in the wake of cashing in on Bladh last season, but the gaffer is keeping his 10 million econs tightly enclosed in his fistle for the time being. 'I have a very specific profile that I'm searching for,' he explained. 'Tempting as it may be, I'm not going to blow my beans on just anyone in order to get them in before the second round of the cup. When the right player comes along, I'll go large, but until then, I'm sitting on it.'
