BLACK TRIBE TAKE YELLY SCALPS

ORGINALLY POSTED ON TEAMER BY HIPPOHAUNTUS: BRAVE WHO FLAPS AT BAWS

Blacks hold the Indian sign over the clowns in yellow. In a game that turned out to be far to easy the mighty black tribe did their nation proud and left the yellows looking foolish in with their garish colours and bright red noses. Young brave Arnott stood out proud like a totem pole in the middle of the action as his team mates pitched their wigwams in front of the yellows goal. Mccran and laidlaw took no prisoners and Devine and Hutchison claimed some prize multi coloured scalps in an attack that made the Alamo seem like a pre-season friendly. Father MacDonald didn’t have a prayer, and Purnell regretted wearing his size 26 shoes as they tumbled their way through a pitiful performance. Even ring piece master Arnott senior looked out of sorts and manus struggled to control his elephant Everard. The third Arnott struggled manfully diving around like an artist without a trapeze. In the end he was the busier keeper, with the flying hippo rarely troubled. On this form the yellows were not apache (really??) on the tribe. Peace pipe anyone?

GLENDEVON SUMMIT

Well the dust huz settled and there is a real stooshie about how the votin wiz conducted. Many commentators present felt t hat the clown, duos, and the surprisingly weird priests case were scuppered by the joppameister's pre presentation offers of hospitality to key personnel. In particular Pedro's enthusiasm fir the delights on offer had for many a debilitating effect on MacDuff's usual high end performance.
More surprising wiz the lack off support or lobbying fir last year's runner up ..circus acts. Only Georgio green van man made a late attempt to raise the issue but by that time it seemed that joppameister's pre match efforts were in full swing and the atmosphere was a total hullabaloo! involving a lot of peace pipes, fire water and red Indian hooping. ...whit a kerryoan!

Amsterdam theme 2013

The success of the pirates huz been unsurpassed. This weekend the boys are off tae the Simon fella's retreat in Glendevon tae decide the theme ....exciting eh!!

1982 SPAIN a time of superlaldy

In May 1982 me malcy and StrawMan set of tae Spain to watch Scotland play in world Cup. A tremendous laugh and was the first time Scots travelled on mass to sunny climes tae watch Scotland...happy days indeeed and the beginning of a golden time watchin and travellin wi Scotland.

NAE LALDY HOW DAFT IS THAT ???

Av heard it aw noo......after 35 years we've been advised not to gie it laldy prior tae a fitba tournie in the Dam. well that'll no do me and frankly am sure it is a wind up. The news is that the boys gave it superlaldy and the usual damage and chaos ensued

BLOG UPDATE

Have been updating both the website and this blog tae try and get the sadlads to get goin on some on line presence. Hopefully some activity will happen because there are some big debates to be had regarding the next porty night oot and the theme fir Dam 2013.

WHATS WI THE 5 MIN OVERTIME?

We have all been waiting for the inevitable fall out from Castle-Greyskull-gate and last nights match showed that even the mighty Nero are not immune to the financial tsunami from the seismic events in the land of Mordor.

The Orc Legions have reneged on financial debts to the Brave Black Army, and accordingly wages are tighter than Baillie’s cycle shorts. Faced with financial ruin the Blacks had to implement a work to rule, banning overtime, in the effort to secure the appearance fee wages and royalty payments of the Laird of Joppa. The result was as plain as the beard on MacDuffs chin, the blacks, leading comfortably through a fine (own)goal scoring return from Nic-Olsen, were forced to simply abandon the pitch at 60 minutes.

It is to the eternal shame of the Jaundiced Jaunes that they continued to play despite the lack of opposition, well into the 65th minute. They may have won, but like so many Orc legions before them, their titles and medals will be tarnished forever.

On a lighter note speculation mounts as to the identity of the striker in the Stuart Arnott mask. Comparisons have been made to Barcelona’s Messi and Motherwell’s Higdon (although the Arnott like imposeter could only strike the underside of the bar with his spectacular cissor kick).

YELLOW PERIL COZ BLACK DARKNESS

The return of The Arnot & Son plus Everloud meant BBB demonstrated his infamous ruthlessness and sent both the Joppameister and the Young Beast back to the dark side of the toon. What ensued was truly astonishing as the YELLies streaked into a 6-0 lead before the blacks managed to pierce Arnott2's brilliant if unorthodox goalkeeping.

From then on the game settled down and the YELLies held on to a difference of 5 in some part thanks to sensational stopping from Arnott2 but mostly due to some pitiful finishing from the somewhat demoralised blacks.

The crowd were aghast when 3 penalties were conceded voluntarily! Changed days indeed from scowls and huffs over disputed line calls. Other talking points were the man handling of GreenVanman by BBB and EverLOUD's small strop when The Joppameister tripped him when darting back to defend.

Post match shower talk overheard concern from the Dark ones about The Flying Hippo's new slender lean look may be impacting on his angles or his ability tae keep his legs shut.

message from dam

Dear Peter,

So Halfway House is becoming a Full House now! Splendid, and you're very much welcome, of course – whatever sons, nephews, uncles, (grand)fathers and/or other family members you bring in.

We always have a pool of substitutes for teams that lack some players, so no problem if you bring in two teams.

I'll check out if your last year’s fysio Bob is available to handle your muscles during the 26. and 27. of May again. Perhaps he can bring in some colleague of his too, to get your bodies in the right position, or to delegate the more subtle and/or harsh 'cases’ to him.

If you'd bring in a fiddler or otherwise musician from Scotland, we'd be very pleased. It’s the tenth edition of our tournament, so we ask all 'foreign’ teams to bring in some kind of musician from their country, to have any kind of (jam)sessions during the tournament, wherever it may be during, in between, before and/or after the games.

So, hope to see you guys from Halfway House here in Holland again.

Have a good time, and see you at the 26. and 27. of May in Amsterdam!

Thats fife!!!

YELLIES WIN PLAUDITS FROM BIG BARNACLE BAILLIE

24 hours after rumours linking Big Barnacle Baillie as assistant to Mister CoUNT, the Pitz 5's witnessed decisive team selection never seen since the Laidlaw golden years. In what could only be described as an Sounesque, BBB presented yellie bibs to the young beast and the joppameister himself.

This move delivered a Yellie victory after an even affair with notable performances from Devinetheyoungertallerfaster, the slimmed up Hippo and Arnott2. Some early concern on the packed if quiet terraces when Purnelle looked badly injured when he pirouetted and scuffed a slider past slimmed up hippo. Relief for all when it was apparent it was only his toe that throbbed.

Game tended to ebb and flow but never quite hit the heights of previous weeks. BBB was never moaned at once due to the absence of Everloud and the Arnot.
