************* FULL TIME ****************

 

Well we drew with the bottom placed team. I would guessing 9 out of 10 times we play the Saints we would beat them but just could break through. TBH in the second half we could have well lost the game. Espeically with Ged missing a penalty.

 

I'll give you one guess.

 

Because they had 3 players on the bench and I was giving everyone a chance. It turned out that it was fine for them but they could have equally lost out if Vago was shit when he came on. But if they name thier own line up they wouldnt have to worry about that...

 

Eggman made soo many saves that he couldn't go on, imo.
