Delayed Update

Updates have been loooong delayed. So firstly, lets kick off with our FIRST kick off.

JUFC's first organised friendly ended in a Goal-less draw. Definitely could have been better. Dominated much of the game. SOlid defensive performance in the first half. JUFC was thrown into a mild crisis, as our keeper suddenly, injured his hand in the warm up.

But our resident Superstar, A*Din, stepped up to the plate, to don the Keepers colours. Scared the shit out of all the players, totally missing MANY/ALL of the shots, that were aimed at him in the warm-up. However, after a few shakey opening minutes, the back four comprising of Andrewano, Justin, Gopal and Gazza, started to collect the loose balls, and shut out the attacks of the opposition.

This made our A*din, very bored, so he started to do funny things like putting the ball on the ground and running away, and throwing it aimlessly, and scaring gazza into some frantic running.

In the 2nd half our midfield maestros, crafted several oppurtunities, one ending notably with Ants hitting the upright. Our Clementi Kannan, shone proudly in his Manchester United colours, with some laser passes, and thunderous shots, while JUFC's homegrown winger, Ants terrorised the right flank with his blinding pace.

JUFC missed several chances, and would have even gone behind, when the opposition got their only shot on target. But A*din, dug deeeep deeep inside his ______(the editor doesn't know what). And, came up with a spectacular reflex save to keep the scoreline level.

Overall, a Jolly good Performance from the Jollies. A collection of criticisms:

1. Run towards the ball. (Stikers and all who run into the Penalty box)
2. Cut Down on dribbling.
3. Don't commit too fast into tackles.
4. PLAY TO YOUR POSITIONS!
5. Open up abit more, Not our usual street soccer style.
6. SMASH ALL THE PEOPLE UP!

All comments, to improve our game is welcome.
Next match is on 30 June, at 9am. Venue TBC.

Friendly Match Report

Final Score -About 5 or 6 -1

MOM (Mask of Madness) - Chester Rowe Tan Yanwei ! He smashed all the people up and scored two goals in his spiffing new Ronaldinho boots

Match Report

Jollies made an encouraging start when Chester Rowe!'s SuperPippo like front running yielded two fantastically taken goals with assists from Ants, who was supremely impressed with Chester's ownage performance leading the frontline. Chester chased down every ball relentless as a blood hound and more than once the flashes of ninja-running style acceleration was glimpsed by members of the press. Still very very, very very fun to watch..haha. To be fair the other team paid very little attention to their defence and their passing was good, at first. Until our defence imposed themselves on the game with Nick Ambrose Ganesh and Andriano smashing all the people up at the back and Chan trying to see if he could kick the ball to the temple up that hill playing the funny music. Our defence was impregnable....the opposition couldn't impregnate our goal no matter how hard they tried. HAHAHAHAHAHA. BT then scored the third and along with it Chester's chance for a hat trick. Still our defence put in a monster performance defending (at tower) and taking no chances, Nick especially spidery and commanding at the back.


Half time came and went and Ants switched over to the left to forge a new partnership with Andriano. Capsize time ! was the codeword for the play of the day by the two left sided players, and though it was never used, rest assured one day it will be. Noone knows what I'm talking about right ? Nvm, me and Andriano were not sure too. The second half continued with more thrills and spills. Ongster's performance up front was awesome with some magic runs stopped by bone chilling tackles. I donno who else scored, and I guess I could write my own version of history and say Chester went on to get his hat trick. I could but I won't ! Chester missed about 5 open chances including one that I burst my lung to run and cross but that bird sent a flying header nowhere near the goal...sibeh sian.. All in all the ownage hero of the day was Adin with a killing spree of 2 goals and an added move speed of +100 with his new boots. Let's hope for JUFC's sake that the new boots last longer than his China endorsed shoes *cough* flip flops *coughs* peeling piece of crap *cough*

In summary, I still play too much dota but at least I've got a job !! And to use the exact words of Ambrose, "this calls for a toast." Ambrose say one.. so tonight anyone on for a toast ??
