Gravytrain take control of the game

Another great win for Gravytrain Limited . After going one-nil down Gravytrain Limited  stepped up a gear and clawed back into the game. An impressive strike by Alex marked the first of many for the Gravytrain Limited  side that took control of the game of there on in. The final score was 6 – 3.

Kevin back for Gravytrain Limited fc

It’s been several weeks now and Gravytrain Limited fc are still looking to join a competetive league! No major changes to report since the last post. Kevin should be coming back this week after suffering a knee injury a while back. It looks like the injury has finally healed and last night it certainly looked like Kevin had fully recovered when he showed up for training.

One of his Gravytrain Limited fc colleagues had this to say:

Gravytrain Limited Nick:  ”Kevin looks better than ever before! We think his leg has been out of alignment all his life and the latest injury, although painful, has actually done him a favour by knocking his leg back into alignment.” 

Reporter: “What does this mean for Kevin’s footballing career?”

Gravytrain Limited Nick: “Well, I guess this will mean his shots will be on target from now on.”

Team on form!

After the miserable last few weeks Gravytrain Limited bounced back in an unfamiliar fashion to win. Yes win! I will write it again to be sure. Gravytrain Limited won a match! A depressingly bad first half performance meant that Gravytrain Limited were 5-0 down. With the new players almost losing hope veteran Alex Taylor turned up the pressure on goal. The Gravytrain Limited striker managed to bag 6 goals to put the team ahead. A Further goal from Andrew made it 7 and marked an impressive win for the club.

New players and a surprise return…

Back from injury is 1st team goalkeeper George who was out due to a broken finger. He has only allowed two weeks for the break to heal! Gravytrain Limited contacted the team doctor to verify this and were astounded at this great news. The doctor added that as George was from Scotland his bones were made from stronger stuff and also healed quicker. Aparently Scotish bones heal 60% faster than that of an Englishman.

Also playing this week is Nick’s younger brother (looks older though) , who is making his second appearance for Gravytrain Limited FC, and a one of Alex’s friends who we are still waiting to for details of. 

Last week it didn’t seem possible but Gravytrain Limited has muscled on and found enough players to represent the team. More information about how the team got on and inside gossip to follow! 

Steve Slade makes debut goalkeeper appearance with Gravytrain Limited

Steve Slade got earnt his place back in the team with a remarkable performance in goal for Gravytrain Limited. The ”loose-cannon left-back” had gone AWOL a few days ago but was found asleep on a park bench grasping a can of special brew,  in the early hours of Tuesday morning. Despite his inability to see he agreed to play in goal for Gravytrain Limited.

The match started off well with a few good early saves from Steve and a few chances at the other end. Sadly the Gravytrain team went one – nil down despite dominating most of the play. The opponents, Limited FC, had Petr Cech in goal which made it difficult to score, but finally 10 mins in Alex scored a blinder of a goal when he nutmegged the entire team (including a few Gravytrain Limited teammates) to get us on score sheet.  The match was very close but if it had not been for both keepers being on form it would have turned into an absolute goal fest. End score: Gravytrain Limited 4 – Limited FC 8.

We put the Limited in Gravytrain Limited FC!

Gravytrain Limited FC commented on their growing concern surrounding their lack of fit players. Assistant manager Rich Bunce had this to say: “We are very concerned”.

Due to recent injury, Kevin and Andrew are unable to play – Andrew has torn a ligament in his ankle and Kevin forgot to take his cod-liver oil tablets. Theses two semi-crucial players could be out for a further 3 weeks. Also on the list of unavailable players is Simon Gersh who is still waiting for his work permit to arrive despite numerous attempts by Gravytrain Limited  FC to contact the Kazakhstani company that own him; Nick L who is out on location shooting ‘Fist Of Fury 2′; And finally, Steve Slade who is currently AWOL but rumours say he has a note.

This week Gravytrain Limited  have a total of 4 players available and are in need of a least 1 more to complete their 5-a-side team. Will they have to forfeit the game? Stay glued to the official Gravytrain Limited  FC blog site for further updates!
