Lasswade 28.05.09

So its over the city boundary to Midlothian for this weeks match up against highly fancied Lasswade. Primaries had their scout look at the opposition during their 6-2 destruction of staff football whipping boys Craigmount and the report threw up some alarming information.

It turns out that, somehow, the Lasswade heidie has managed to secure the services of not one, not two, but THREE Scottish Football League players as part of the teaching staff.

Names and clubs were a closely guarded secret last night but the rumour mill has been churning out, well.... rumours all day on who these three superstars could be..... Has "Bad Boy" Barry Lavety cleaned up his act and decided to give something back to society? Has Kevin Thomas binned the crutches and joined the Beanbag chuckers indefinitely? Who knows.... Lets be honest... Who cares?

One thing is for sure, whoever turns out for Lasswade, Primaries are gonna have to get the finger oot in order to take anything from the game.

Early team news:- Gilhooley, French, Jamieson, Durkin and McCann all missing due to "professional commitments" (whatever the hell that means) but good news is that Neil "before Zod" Adams is back and ready to clean up the bloody awful mess left by make shift centre half Sullivan a.k.a the Kaiser.

Three wins on the tot and 16 goals into the bargain will have the PSFC troops in high spirits but this may be their toughest test to date.

Bring it!

Tynecastle/St.Davids 21.05.09

The Primaries steamroller ploughs onto Dalkeith on Thursday with a crunch match against much fancied Tynecastle St.Davids. PSFC will be in bullish mood after 11 goals in their last 2 games, but will want to cut out any mistakes as they look to mastermind their 4th win of the season.

Its worth noting that the team has been scoring goals from all areas this season with no less than 10 players hitting the mark. Goalscoring stats below. Primaries have no new injury concerns to contend with on their trip south at the midway point of a promising campaign.

He's gone too far this time!!

Well, the sad man that i am, staying in on a friday night with nothing to do, no pals to go out with, babysitting while the wife goes on the Randan...... I decided to have a stab at a new badge for the PSFC, cos, we dont really have one! We've got that smart Milan Tour '04 badge on the strip, but what about a PROPER CLUB BADGE?

I decide to give it a bash.

I thought to myself, design something contemporary, classy, sophisticated... ITALIAN!... but with a huge nod to our proud scottish roots so, if we ever thought about going on a jolly round the baltic states again, we could show who we were and where we came from!!

A hat and a balloon to the first man that figures out which clubs badge this is stole... er MODELLED on!!

Leys hear your thoughts, laddies!!

Gaz.

The Tie That Binds!

It has recently been brought to my attention that PSFC is not only a sterling group of young sporting gentlemen, it is also a highly fashionable hotbed of haute couture.

Well! That is a turn up for the books!

So in keeping with tradition and in order to mark the advent of the considerable influx of new, raw talent into this historic gathering, Greg has proposed that we design and produce a new club tie!

I have found a fascinating website that will facilitate our ideas into a design that will encapsulate what it means to pull on the Rossoblù!

Simply log onto http://www.william-turner.co.uk/tie_designer/ties/sd005.html at let your creative juices flow!

Once you've done designing, you can do a screen grab (remember this doesn't actually involve removing IT equipment from your workplace) and email me with your creations!

I've done one to get the ball rolling (right).

Wear it with Pride!!

Squad for tomorrow:-

Paddy
Ian
Bruce
Ross

Injury news:- The aforementioned Jamie B is still out with ankle ligament "damage", Garry has "nerve damage" , Douglas has, somewhat worryingly "snapped his string" (not sure if this is a medical or musical term) and as for the rest....... M.I.A, A.W.O.L or just plain p*sh?!

Stand strong boeys! Stand STRONG!!

Well, it had to happen!

PSFC's preparations were put in a real fankle late on wednesday night when Boroughmuir inexplicably called off their tie at late notice. No official reason for the chunder has been forthcoming but our mole in the camp has offered up the most likely cause after speaking with a Boroughmuir insider.

Basically, they were running scared. I mean REAL scared, yeah?. They had been given a detailed dossier with feedback from the dismantling of Currie/Balerno the week previous and they simply didn't fancy another basinful.

To be fair, who can blame them?

I mean, who could blame them if they didnt fancy coming up against the Tinkerman's "scatternaccio" playing style.....

Then there is the triple decker attack line of Jaimo, Beggsie and Gazwaldo. What defence in their right mind would fancy a second helping of that?!!

And then.... factor into the mix the resurgence of Greg the Cannonball in midfield, Willie "Javier" Mashedpotato in the sitting role and lets not forget ol' Paddy Power at the back and his partner in grime, Neil ...... BEFORE ZOD!!!

Its a well known fact that the uncompromising full backs were top boys at The Adam Ant School of Defending.... and faithfully carry out the school motto.... "Stand on de Liver!"

No, we cant be too harsh on them.... if they didn't have the stomach for it, and mind - not many fowk have, they were best staying well clear, WELL CLEAR! Lest the Primaries Football Juggernaut rumble over the top o' them on their way to certain glory!

Bring on WHEC!

Dear Football Fan!

Just a very quick note to open the Primary Schools Football Club blogger site.

I'll clear it with the gaffer and add a few wee snippets about Teamlines, Match Reports, "The Treatment Table" :- a weekly update on all the current team injury news (with some frankly awful sick note excuses) and other stuff besides.

Its ok, Linds... you still are and always have been The Gaffer!
