This story is udderly mad…
There is nothing worse than being involved in a match where your team are getting absolutely hammered but this story is just too good not to share.
We feel for the ragtag French side Marly-Gomont after they surpassed their usual levels of dung by losing a match 20-0 to Tupigny. The poor side seem to get creamed every week and their players probably need a consoling pat on the head after their matches.
The side came into their most recent game with 14 injuries and were forced to play four players who were all aged 16. We’re certain that their players weren’t very a-moo-sed by the behaviour of their goalkeeper during the match though.
The team’s luck wasn’t helped when their ‘keeper, who is also a farmer, had to leave the match after just 25 minutes because he got the call that one of his cows was giving birth. What makes this story even better is that the replacement ‘keeper was the club’s 61-year old president.
JOE thinks that the words said in the pre-match team-talk must have went in one ear and out of the udder. Maybe they should try giving some of their players the hoof.
It’s a long time since we’ve herd a more ridiculous story so we’re milking this for everything it’s worth.
