Ramblings of a Down Under Match review ( Morecambe World)
Posted: Sat Aug 23, 2008 11:41 pm(Pre-match ramble)
After the dreary tones and match last week against Rothers, I was anticipating an upbeat commentary and better effort on our part against Bury.
As a child I had a cousen who lived in Heywood and I visited Gigg Lane a few times in the 60's wonder if its changed much?.
(Setting the scene)
A cold day here in Sydney droned into a wet and even colder night. Mrs Aspers and the Asplets had gone out of town for a dance comp so I had the whole night to myself. Watched a bit if TV, Central Coast V Sydney McFlynn doing good for Sydney. popped down to Bondi beach for a Chicken Ceasar Salad and Chai Latte.
Got home, settled down, logged on to Morecambe World switched on Fox sports 1.
Here in Oz (I have previously mentioned) we have about 10 matches to watch and choose from I chose Pool v Boro but the picture never came on, Morecambe world also didn't come on,
wondering what to do, the picture came in from Anfield and My compooter started with Morecambe World commentary at the same time.
(Match & Commentary review)
The 2 lads doing the commentary were very funny, Checking back on SV i noticed shrimpscene had said he and a few of our lads were just behind the commentary team, I heard them intermittently during the match, nice 1 lads. The commentary was so biased I wasn't even aware we had scored for about 20 seconds after we had. Didn't know where the goal came from. Much better thinks I topped up my glass and life was looking good.
Within 5 minutes life took a slight downturn and 10 minutes later catastrophe.
2 soft goals, 2 idiots on my computer screaming how brilliant Bury were and they'd be in the premiere soon (That made me chuckle).
I was imagining the frustration of our supporters, early days yet but on the commentary the lads were saying we didn't look good.
So marks out of 10
Morecambe 4
Bury commentators 8
Sydney weather 1
Early days and I have great faith in our management team and players at CP, I would request you win matches before daylight saving in 6 weeks because I find it too hard at my age to stay up till 2.00am.
Yours in slight frustration but optimistically looking forward to League 1 next season.
