“The battle to remake the team took another twist today. We earned a massive 80000, so obviously the fans are appreciative of the efforts we are making to rebuild the club. On the flip side, Telchar is beginning to show signs of aging. The club captain has played all except one of our matches, and his efforts have been a great help. Unfortunately the team cannot afford to let him retire gracefully. We need all hands on deck until we can steady the keel of the Dig Dug ship. But at least we're back to eleven players.

This match was another on our road to recovery. Perhaps our opponent thought us easy prey, because at the end he seemed rather dissappointed with the result. To be fair, it did take some fantastic puzzle breaking to get the equaliser in the final turn.
After the 5 turn riot in the first half, we failed to get anything from receiving. At the start of the second, Chicken Yard scored early. They then set up to defend deeply, avoiding contact so as to limit the avenues of running. What looked to be a secure final turn defence was unlocked by a series of push's which deposited Telchar 4 squares from the line in free space. 1-1 it finished.

Player of the game: Telchar did well to hold the ball in the second half.

Play of the game: The final turn TD looked to be impossible, but a few well placed shoves cleared the way for the equaliser.”
