Match Report
You can't let teams like Forever Blowing Bubbles play their game. They were at their most dangerous here and boy were they scoring goals? Yes they were, as M.I.A found out to their cost with a 16 - 0 drubbing.
While the squad won't stop grumbling at having to practice their Penalties, the results are clear out on a Sunday.
Mohammed Salah missed the game because he turned up 24 hours too early. He was in fact running a day ahead of himself. He failed to turn up for work on Friday and has been sacked.
Money can't buy the kind of form which saw Forever Blowing Bubbles's Winnie Bago score with a lovely move from the right wing. It wasn't the only time his name appeared on the scoresheet, he was on it 5 times before the final whistle.
Give the M.I.A strikers some Viagra. They lack any penetration in the box.
M.I.A's Mark Walpole experiment with the 2 5 3 formation is not giving the results he wanted. Maybe he should change it before it blows up in his face.
"We were beaten fair and square," said manager Mark Walpole weeping openly. "The effort you should take for granted, but sometimes it's just not there."
M.I.A call themselves a football team? They might call themselves one, after a display like this no one else is in a hurry to.
