SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT FOR PS4 PLAYERS
The head Badger has very kindly given his consent for some shameless advertising about a very special PS4 society called "Sons of Pitches - Betterball" We are just concluding a very successful season 1 and are looking to expand for season 2. We play 2 rounds per week in teams of 2 and scoring is done on a betterball basis. That is to say that the best score on each hole counts. So you play in a team and try to dovetail with your partners score in order to produce the best result.
We currently have 4 x teams of 2 and would love to expand this if we could. All levels of play are catered for and teams are selected with a view to keeping things as close as possible. We play PRO difficulty and settings match those of the TGCT Beer League.
If you are interested or would like more info please PM me or make yourself known in our Sons of Pitches - Betterball thread in the Communities area.
Thank you gentlemen and thank you Greg

The only pies they are serving up at Burton Albion this week are of the humble variety (E). It didn’t help that the pitch felt like playing in quicksand (-2). Tough week for the first team and the grounds crew as the field conditions will likely continue deteriorate further in the second half. JFH will need to change strategy after the break to try to mount some sort of attack. “Speed football” was mentioned.

With the scores locked at 1-1 the game came to life in the second half at Stamford Bridge. Both teams passed the ball around nicely and created chances, but sadly Diedhiou and Wells missed too many sitters and it's Chelsea who take a narrow lead going in to the final quarter of the game.
Third round 67 (-6). I had a good birdie chance on every hole on the back nine but only took 4 of them.

4th Round -3
As the match reached the later stages the Celtic team started to get leggy and couldn't muster anything of interest. The introduction of subs Klimala, Soro and Johnson gave the team much needed energy and a late rally might prove to be the difference in this one.

Pixel Golf Football Season Two - Championship division, week 2: Hyvinkään Palloseura (1W, 0D, 0L) @ Tranmere Rovers (0W, 0D, 1L), second half (LONG READ, WATCH OUT)
And we're back from our quick break! Chaos at the locker room since Coach Imot has snapped, he went a little overboard in his motivational quest to get the team rolling! He also seems to be displeased about the fact the team is playing better in their heads than on the field this game and he wants them to focus on the task at hand. (practice -37, actual... spoiler alert: -28)
Onto the second half we go, and boy oh boy is it quite a spectacle! Chip shots, blunder passes, guys falling asleep for just long enough to cause problems, shots that threaten the goal, everything you can ask for! Advanced stats show that there were apparently 11 shots taken this quarter, but how many of them were truly threatening? We don't really know! And the most important question: will any of them have found the back of the net? Stay tuned for later, since we're now going to a quick commercial break! *insert a catchy jingle here* (Round 3: -8)Aaand we're back from the break and in shocking news, the wind has picked up here! It looks to be causing tons of issues since it looks so bad that the pitch is about to fly off! The ball is flying in the strangest trajectories, and most shots the team takes, it looks more like a chip or a hook than anything else! (seriously though, the start of the round was just mad with chips, think I got 3 straight birdies with those!) The boys have pushed the entire way through, and they have finished well. VAR still has to check for goals for probably 5 decades since that's how it always goes, we'll remain with all the anxiousness to see if any shots have sneakily crossed the goal line as the final whistle blows and we wait for the final score to come in through some age old apparatus since that's the only thing we can afford here in the studio... (Round 4: -7)EXTRA REPORT (because I feel like it): Coach Imot has for some reason had enough of seeing the team this week and he is reported to be going on a quick getaway in preparation for the next game. Meanwhile, people from across the street from the stadium have reported that he has threatened to send the team to Siberia for a 3 day training camp. He might still be angry due to the fact that this team made him look like a laughing stock during his opening season as a coach in 2019, posting a season stat line in the fourth division of Finnish football hierarchy that would get any team laughed out of the entire system. I wish I was actually joking there. Check it out for yourselves. This took a hell of a lot of detective work to come across, and thankfully the Finnish FA cares about more than just the top dogs of the country, even if everything else is buried quite deep. The only highlight of this 2019 season was a matchday 2 draw, and the low points were getting beaten 23-0, and losing 15-0 to a team literally called FC 69, the number being written out. Not even joking. The comparison in the picture below is the team that finished second to last that season. The usual: games played, wins, draws, losses, goals for - against, points. Read it and weep. At least last season they finished 6th in the fifth division. Thought I'd share this for the hell of it to give more context as to why I make this team seem so farcical.

With the score knotted at 1 entering the second half, the Pirates contested valiantly but just could not withstand the home crowd and the Giant Dudes. RD 3 -7 RD 4 -5 Not sure why they went unreported/recorded, but here are the scores for F91

Hello. After last week's close match against Ajax, F91 coach Fangueiro decided to give goalkeeper Kips a well deserved rest by leaving him on the bench. "The North Americans will be jetlagged anyway", he said, "and I still don't get why they hire a head coach residing in HK. I mean, giving instructions via FaceTime might sound cool, but playing while holding a smartphone is very distracting." 5 minutes into the match, coach Fangueiro had to revise his decision already, as a ball and a mobile phone rattled in the mesh. Wildly making gestures in his coaching area, Fangueiro became more and more upset that none of the players followed his instructions. And so he handed mobile phones to each of his players. It must have been very confusing for the spectators to see 22 players on the pitch constantly checking their devices. However, the move turned out to be a success. All of a sudden, the F91 defense was very organized while the offense threw in some very creative actions. Eventually, the Diddelénger squad turned the match around, scoring two more goals to win it 2-1. Cheers, good luck all and sorry for the delay!

The Orlando Pirates are PROUDLY South African and we were SEA lagged. As for the coach zooming his footie knowledge from HK.....have you seen how poorly we are doing?!?!?! GG Luxers, all the best to you the rest of the season. Downward!

As for "footie" knowledge I am soooooo impressed you used the word "footie". We'll make a Brit out of you yet Mr Vandelay
