Round 4 - +5 (77)
With Coventry taking every single attacking player off the field resting them for next weeks game away at Anfield, they were expecting Rovers to have all the possession and all the chances. However, what they didn't take into account was Tranmere's ineptitude in the opposing box, Tranmere somehow managed to hit the woodwork 4 times in the final couple of minutes, the ball even got stuck on the goal line in a puddle, which appeared from the amount of drool the Coventry keeper due to being still asleep on the pitch, the game could have lasted 327 minutes and Rovers will wouldn't have scored....(i bounced into the water on 18, hit the only god damn tree on my approach and hit a Triple bogey to tie on +5) ...
The manager in his press conferencece after the game commented that if his strikers went to the local brothel in Rock Ferry or the local dogging car park, with £50 notes wrapped round their cocks, they still wouldn't have scored today.
A home match next week against some minnows from Dutchland .... I smell another goal drought already
Final Score
Coventry 3 - 0 Tranmere Rovers

Tense moments abound as Cassino Calcio pumps the brakes on their attacking style of play, playing to type and trying to defend their 2-0 lead. Dudelange fires away, but Del Guidice does just enough to keep a clean sheet, including saving against a massive blunder on an errant back pass that trickled toward the line. In the end, 3 points is 3 points, and top of the group is top of the group.
((R4: 69))

What late drama at The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and there has been a stewards enquiry about the width of the goals as Spurs could not hit a cows ass with a banjo and they will have to repaint the goalposts after this game and finishing with a -1
Round 3 -1

So final whistle blows after a really scrappy battle between these two teams and Spurs never wanted to take home advantage and the good start by Villa was just too much for the Lillywhites even after a hatrick from Kane before going of injured so he can watch NFL this weekend and a -3
Round 4 -3

Final whistle has gone at chilly, rainy Bay View Stadium too. I don't know that, I'm just guessing because it's Scotland. Much better second half performance from the City but all to no avail. After starting the second half so well but getting caught on the counter to go 3-0 down, the last quarter of the game started a lot more reserved with a string of 6 pars in a row, followed by a step back with a bogey at 7. With nothing realistically to play for City then played their best stuff of the match, free following football, pinging passes and shots on target. 4 birds and an eagle got me to -5 for the round, but just when I thought a consolation goal might be in sight 5 off the tee at 17 slammed the door shut. A 4-0 loss to start the season but City can take heart from their second half display. Fourth round 70, well played Greg  Hopefully today's signing of Henri Lansbury will bolster the team for next week. COYR! |

Second attempt at this after an inadvertent click wiped out 30 minutes of work
SkyBlueBen , fransslabak , Giraffe72 , Celtic Wolf , sid snott , Art Vandelay , thetaffman , rob4590 , crushtastic , up mup kupen nup , cassinochips , LEFTY79 , jason755 , xboxjonnyuk and avjpfc Week One Round-upFirstly a massive thank you to everyone for throwing themselves into the spirit of this venture. Speaking to a couple of participants they were extremely complimentary of the short commentaries which really help to add to the immersion of a pixel golf spreadsheet competition. Things seem to be working exactly as intended. The Posh Boys will still win if they play with the skill and consistency that has raised them to their lofty positions, however, any slips on their part are punished by good play from those in the lower flights. Adjusted scores are mostly in the mid-to-low sixties which seems about right. On to the action. Group APugnacious Scottish part-timers East Fife lead the way on goal difference from West Ham courtesy of a 4-0 home win. The early goal from Man United cost the Londoners top spot (restricting them to a 3-1 win) but they look menacing and will surely have a big say in things over an extended period. Bristol City will have had M-People's D:Ream's 'Things can only get better' looping on the in-bus entertainment during their 450 mile trudge back down the M8, M74, M6 and M5. Next week they host the Hammers whilst the Fifers travel down the Manchester (a path well-trodden by myself in reverse before lockdown) Group BSpurs and Villa played out an exciting 2-2 draw with Kane and Co. twice coming from behind to snatch something from a match that, at one stage, looked lost. See America, there doesn't HAVE to be a result! In Luxembourg F91 Dudelange slumped to a narrow 2-0 defeat in one of the tightest opening encounters. The win for Cassino Calcio sees them top their group at this early stage. This is a shot from the studio as the final whistle went to mark a momentous win for the Azzuri.  Next week sees Spurs in Italy and Dudelange travel to Birmingham to take on Villa. Group CBattering Motherwell and Ross County every week and winning 17 titles in a row is expected at at Celtic Park, but the visit or South Africa's finest left the hoops splayed across the stadium like a slutty starfish, as the athletic visitors from the Dark Continent departed, muttering something about ringing them next week. Orlando Pirates top the table for now but could yet be overtaken by The Brewers from Burton who lead Herne Who? 2-0 at half-time in the late kick off. Burton and Orlando meet in Soweto next week whilst Celtic make the shorter trip to Kent. Group DThe Wandering Tribe of the West Midlands sit proudly on the top of the pile following their solid 3-0 demolition of the least fashionable Mersey side, Tranmere. The Sky Blues travel to their more famous neighbours Liverpool next week. Speaking of Liverpool, they were involved in possibly the match of the week against Ajax at the Amsterdam ArenA. Two-nil up and coasting at half-time against the out-of-sorts Dutchmen things looked good for the Reds. Total Voetbal at it's finest saw Ajax storm back into contention and grab a late equaliser to ensure the honours were shared. Indeed a game of two halves. Ajax are also on Merseyside next week at Prenton Park, hopefully leaving the lockdown rioters in the Netherlands but attempting secure some Covid vaccines whilst in the UK. We leave you with the thoughts of Ron Manager

Great round up Greg, the only error I noticed was M-People being responsible for 'Things Can Only Get Better' when it was D:ream.
For the sake of my street cred don't ask how I know that.

Season One - Week TwoQualifying Round - Match No. 2Thoroughly enjoyable opening week of the season where everyone went the extra mile to throw themselves into the spirit of things. We go to match 2 of the Qualifying group as we work towards who dines at The Ritz and who will be sharing a Bargain Bucket from Kentucky Fried Chicken.
All the Managers need to do is to play all 4 rounds of the TGCT Challenge Circuit (even if you miss the cut) and post your score on this thread. Colourful commentary is not only welcomed, but encouraged. For those Posh Boys playing rounds outside of their normal tour, a screenshot of the score summary at the end of the four rounds would be most helpful.
Fixtures Around The GroundThis week's rounds will take place at Whitewater Peninsula by Graham Wood
"Whitewater Peninsula set on the mountains above sea level with ocean surrounding the golf course. Generous fairways and undulating two tier greens. Scoring round here is all dependant on approach play.!" Here's a little montage to help you pass the time on the team bus, there's some long trips this week.....how NOT to play football....`

Lol honeybadger64, I feel your pain. There's a few here who will remember the RRCC which I used to be involved with. Those write ups used to take me around 2 hours. The inadvertent click which loses the lot is enough to make grown men cry. Enjoyable first week, I'm wondering how many football analogies we've got in us? We've had a few fiesty games with West Ham over the years, although not since they became Premier League tarts. COYR! |

Hello, the general manager of Dudelange here. Where is Aston Villa please? I can‘t find it on any map. Instead, we drove to Ashton‘s villa Ashton Fox, but he doesn‘t seem to have a football field in his backyard. Help! |

Warming the boys up for their daunting trip to Liverpool with a reminder of how reigning Champions can be crushed. Cries of SUMO SUMO from the back of the coach as Mick Quinn resigns for the Club at the ripe old age of 51 to bolster the attack....PUSB
