Sutherland to Cronulla

So I get off the train on the way home, put my clothes in my bag and run the rest of the way.  It is 10.5K, took me 55 minutes, and I weighed the bag it was 5KG

Bangor 2 – 1 Gymea United

What a disappointment!  The result that is, oh and my fitness .  I managed the first 45 and then about 20 minutes in the second half.  It is just non-stop in mid-field and there are only 3 of us.  No excuses mind you and I do plan to address this with more running this week.

As for the game.  their goals were both pretty lucky.  The first was a 30 yard daisy cutter that found the right side of the post. The second goal was a dodgy pen.  Jia says it didn’t hit his hand and he has no reason to say otherwise.  I don’t think any of my team mates would lie.  Our goal was from Jimmy, a great bit of running to allow me tho thread a pass to him.  We played well together when we could link up, but I just can’t get up enough.

2-1 and I was disapointed becuase we still haven’t won and 2 games in a row where we could, and should have.

What? 89.7

I am now behind my target.  I guess this week I have been ill + only at work for 3 days out of the 7, I find that the routine helps with managing my diet.

 

Sunday morning visitors

Good morning George  I recent weeks we have been getting these fellers coming to visit more and more.  The parrots must have headed north to keep warm leaving these gib lads to attack our fake falcon. 

Europe in June 2008

Here is Ivana & Alex’s plans for June 2008

Not banksy

If there is one thing that bothers me it is this; mindless graffiti! Actually all graffiti, as it isn’t asked for and is normally at the annoyance of more people that want it.  Then there is tagging. What is that all about?  These kids needs an outlet but tagging the back of the public library?  

Not all sunshine and surf

Gymea 2 – 2 Como West

Played almost a full game, but needed a 5 minute rest half way through the second half.  Playing in  defensive midfield the game wasn’t a bad one and although we went 1-0 down we really should have bagged a dozen with all the chances we squandered.  I am guilty and really should have done more with my chances in front of goal.

Hurt when they go an equalizer in the last minute.   I pushed the striker wide but he put the ball across the box well and it was scuffed over the line.

Sutherland Rockets 0 – 0 Gymea United

So this was my first 11-a-side for a little while and it was hard work.

The coach plays a 4-1-2-3 and it works quite well, with wingers and 2 attacking midfielders, but then the 2 wingers don’t play like wingers and I can’t recall a single cross.

I played as one of the 2 and was box to box.  I played 30 minutes the first half and about 35 the second.  I can remember a few highlights but nothing worth writing home about

On target for big loses

As you can see Ivana and I are on target .  Ivana has now won 3 weeks, the same as me :-0
