Bandits 4 V Woking 4 (win 3-1 penalties)

By Reading Hockey Club • Jan 29th, 2007 • Category: Bandits, Match Reports, News

On a pleaseant sunday afternoon’s day
Reading bandits had their first cup game to play
Playing pool with a beer, was the pre-prep fate
outside the crowd soared to a total of 8

Marriots shoulder went along with her blonde hair
Dunc brown turned up with moments to spare
But the game did commence with a tired start
Bandits looked like they’d lost their heart

Woking knocked one in without much skill
and another one followed, Bandits still at Nill.
But with game faces back on and a sharp attack
Posh roofed the net to get one back

Just before half time, Bandits stepped up the gear
but for a genius keeper who kept Woking clear
Our defence however, not be out classed
saw Timbo dive and save a deflection past

The second half started with worries diminshed
and a ping pong pass movement Posh nicely finished.
Bandits maintained possesion for a while
and not before long Dunc hit the backboard in style

3-2 kicked Woking into wanting more
and ruddy number seven leveled the score
Several shoulder chargers later and Spag got a yellow
down to 10 and Bandits short of a fellow

Luckily Brian started playing in every position
and tired legs were shown by the opposition
Then the Badger feel on her arse
and Posh decided not to pass

Extra time with the game tied at 3-3 each way
11 back on till we got a 2nd card of the day
the ump was possibly ‘aving a laugh?’
Woking got a goal, before the end of the half

4-3 down and a minute to go
Bandits courage started to show
A driving run down the left and Oj was clear
a one handed wonder goal gave all a cheer
Penalties and each team scored their flick
Then Posh made it 2-1 for his hat trick
Laz made a fabulous save and Kiff scored
They missed the 3rd and the Bandits roared!

Well done to all
Odders x

Next Game: 18th February- Details TBC

  1. Just to make sure you get your facts right.
    When a player tells the umpire to f–k off its an altomatic yellow card.

    Anyway well done an excellent game.

  2. Dear Paul, I think you’ll find that “automatic yellow card” doesn’t rhyme with “end of the half”.

    Top match report Odders

  3. sorry, no offence intended paul, the only other word i could think of was giraffe, frankly tricky to work in. Feel free to advise on changing the rhyme :)

  4. Odders ur a legend! think you’ve found ur new talent! ;) x

  5. Shut up Paul, you loser (no offence intended of course).

  6. Whats an “altomatic” yellow card anyway?

    I was not issued with one of them when i did my umpiring course!!!
