Man of the Match sponsors Ginsters have offered me a consultancy roll as their sausage roll taster. I had to decline as I explained that I’m only a hot dog expert but suggested that they ask one of my team mates, I think Deeside, Quietman or Sal could be perfect for this roll. Mmmm....thanks for the nomination mate. I'll volunteer (and take one for the team) as official taster if there are no other takers. Chuffed might be interested as long as the sausage roll isn't an andouillette "surprise" - that would rule me out as well. If it's just "normal" sausage rolls I'd defo be interested ! Pork pies as well !

Great news, great game, we gave the Saints one hell of a beating: Saints 1 v 4 EEFCTwo goals from Quietman, one from MSal, and a worldy from Felonious.. More stats, ratings, facts etc later... UIMS Marvellous. The sharp sighted of you may have noticed (and probably failed to care) that I haven't posted for nearly a month. I was laid up with a torn back muscle. The longest trip I made in 3 weeks was from the bed to the bathroom - on all fours and very, very slowly. Much planning and forward thinking was required. Will I need to empty my bladder in the next hour? Maybe. Best set off for the bathroom now then.
The most painful part was that all devices with internet access were downstairs whilst I was confined upstairs. Mrs Q (probably wisely) refused to pander to my pleas for any of said devices so I was limited to listening to daytime tv (eeek) for 3 weeks seeing as I couldn't even lift my head to look at the tv for long. Praise the lord for the discovery channels, PBS America etc. I may possibly have learnt a few things in my confinement. If I'd been limited to Homes Under the Hammer etc. for 3 weeks, I'd probably have topped myself.
Now back at work part time for phased reintroduction, hence I have interweb access again.
So, there I was, flat on my back, as mobile as some of our real (as opposed to EEFC) centre backs, and I not only travel several hundred miles to play, I score two goals. Funny old game, Saint.
Whatever your decision for the future of EEFC, Cheees, I hope it keeps going in some form or other. The best thread on the Oatcake and I've (virtually at least) met some fine folks through it.

There's just something about sausage rolls that doesn't work for me. They always seem so dry in the mouth. If they offer up pork pies, though, I'll be all over that one.

Sounds like a bad do. Wishing you a speedy and complete recovery. Rumours of a possible formation change for the weekend fixture. You may be given a rest. We'll see how 'training' goes. UIMS

Friday night 7pm ish. EEFC vs Bournemouth {Sneaky Cheats}. UIMS OM Jolly good. I'm fine with being rested, boss. With good showings during my sojourn of raspberry rippled-ness, now I'm recovering I'd no doubt have a 'mare. Just in case, I've ordered a high platform from Seoul so I can learn how to take out our Greg Louganis opponents.

Greg Louganis - a name from the past. Wasn't he the diver who banged his head on the concrete dive platform when he was doing his twists and somersaults - I seem to remember it was a really nasty collision (could well have been someone else I suppose). He probably taught Eddie Howe everything there is to know about diving.
I've been watching the Denis Smith video of "subtle defending" this week - a few little tricks to try out during the game.

Yep, you nailed my references there D. Much as I love Denis, he broke too many bones with his eagerness. I'm more of the Bluto mould. Still hard as nails but better timing in a tackle for me. Also prone to bad back injuries, though.

Great result and a good game. The gaffers a tactical genius, completely outwitting our opposition.
Some say he outwitted himself with the team sheet earlier on but I’m not having it. It was a master stroke. Only naming ten players... even Cloughie couldn’t have thought one up. Nice one boss.
Onwards...

Great result to bounce back from the previous game - great performance and some superb goals. The other lot really were bad losers and tried every trick to get us booked but fortunately the ref wasn't having any of it. Good to see he booked three of them for diving.
The bogus team sheet really foxed their manager, maybe it's something the Gaffer can do every few weeks to keep the opposition guessing ?

Thrilling game some outstanding performances and as for the goals, out of this world. More ungratious bunch of individuals it'd be hard to conceive. Keeping up this intensity won't do us any harm. Those solo worldlies you could write a book about.

Moved me up to be the dynamo at the heart of the midfield, eh gaffer? I'm happy with a 7 rating ... and to be joint-lowest with that is phenomenal.
Assassin and Sal were a pink blur up front. And the gaffer's merry-go-round tactics with everyone spinning round a static centre midfield certainly bamboozled the Tom Daleys. They didnt know which direction to dive.
It's been said before, the gaffer is a genius. He took the Jasper Carrot comedy masterpiece and turned it into a game-winning formula. Boing! Time for Europe, everybody.

No game for us, warm down after last night's glorious exertions. Here's the standings {that matter} going into today. All a bit static caravan at the top. Nobody moving much. We're wedged in at 7th. Some might say 'punching above our weight', I would say,'how would they know?'.
1. MAN CITY team hasn't moved Pld GD Pnts 26 54 65 2. LIVERPOOL team hasn't moved 26 44 65 3. SPURS team hasn't moved 26 29 60 4. MAN UTD team hasn't moved 26 17 51 5. ARSENAL team hasn't moved 26 16 50 6. CHELSEA team hasn't moved 26 16 50 7. EEFC team hasn't moved 27 2 44 8. WATFORD team hasn't moved 27 4 40 9. WOLVES team hasn't moved 26 1 39 10. WEST HAM UTD team hasn't moved 27 -5 36 11. EVERTON team hasn't moved 27 -3 33 12. BOURNEMOUTH team hasn't moved 26 -10 33 13. LEICESTER CITY team hasn't moved 26 -3 32
Coming up: Quite a tantalizing set of fixtures against the pack around us.
Everton {home} tuesday Wolves {a} West Ham {h} Chelsea {h}
