Hand of Dog

Centre Forward or Full Forward?

The most recent instalment in the life of an aged ex footballer was played out at Lough Moss on Monday night. A dogged performance from the Bogman's selection saw them pull off an unlikely 0-0 draw. In the balmiest night of the year to date, players were sweating and panting like a team of Thai hookers trying to out run Girly Bhoy in the brightly lit streets of Pat Pong!

No goals but plenty to talk about. Cruncher O'Keefe looked like he had the number 9 shirt nailed down until this performance. He seemed to be confused by the pitch markings and consequently settled for the easy option - taking his points when he should have tried to beat Hendy in goal.


At the other end Ferryman too, forgot the code and Maradonaesque, attempted to hand pass to himself for the only goal of the game. Obviously ruled out but not without complaint from the Monaghan man who cried about it all the way home (not to Monaghan but it felt far enough).


So, next week's game is cancelled due to lack of able bodies but tune in for the news of what Girly got up to (or just up) on tour. Remember, "What goes on tour................ gets reported on the blog!"
