Góðan Dag fellow heathens and Velkomin back to the final installment for this season. Last time out it felt like all we played were cup games. We’d managed to secure ourselves a spot in the League Cup final, the FA Cup semi final and somehow (after beating Barca), a spot in the Champions League semi final. We were also 5th in the league but realistically fighting for 2nd spot as Monkceaster are current runaway leaders.
Góðan Dag and Velkomin back to Anglo Saxon times. It’s the turn of the year and we’ve managed to negotiate our way to the Quarter Final of the Champions League, where we’ve drawn Barcelona. We’re into the Quarter’s of the League Cup and are yet to make our bow in this years FA Cup. We’re in 5th place, 9 points behind Monkceaster who sit in top spot.
Góðan Dag. Last time out we’d made some decent regen signings (Laudrup/Gudjohnsen/Thorstvedt/Faxe Jensen), farmed the latter 3 out on loan along with Schmeichel’s regen from last year. We’re decently poised in the league in 9th place and are currently sitting pretty at the top of our champions league table with 3 wins out of 3.
So without further ado we start this week at home to Ligeraceater in what I believe to be our first meeting with them in this save. The first half flies by with little quality to speak off. The second half is going the same way so i decide to bring on Laudrup Jnr in the 59th min and it pays immediate dividends as he puts through George to score what ends up as the winner. Leicester have a couple of chances but it’s their keeper who takes the MoM.
Góðan Dag & Velkomin back to the year 868AD. Alfred of Wessex has married Ealhswith of Mercia over the summer. This has resulted in an alliance between the Kingdoms of Wessex & Mercia against the Viking hordes.
With this in mind it’s time to make some reinforcements of our own…. We bring in Marc Rieper from Celtic to hopefully shore up that leaky defence of ours.
Góðan Dag and Velkomin back to the final installment for this season. Last week we were unceremoniously knocked out of both cups but were knocking on the door of Europe in 6th place with 16 games remaining.
Without further ado, we start this week at home to bottom club Botheltun (who knocked us out of the league cup). Half Dan sets us on our way in the 7th minute and Bye Andersen doubles it in the 11th. CBA then gets his second and Ivar grabs our 4th to give us a commanding lead at half time. The 2nd half flies by until Bjorn gets crocked in the 72nd min. Bolton have a few chances at the end but it remains 4-0. A great start to the week, we should now be safe from relegation should we implode and revenge for the cup defeat.
Góðan dag fellow Heathens. After a struggled start last week we found ourselves languishing in the bottom half of the table, although there was only a handful of points between us and 4th place. We’d negotiated our way into the 3rd round of the league cup where we were drawn against fellow prem team Botheltun.
Hopefully we can settle down now and start making our way up the table. A nice cup run wouldn’t go amiss either.
Without further ado we travel into Mercia to take on Beorma’s Ham who sit just above us in 12th place. It’s Birmingham who take the lead against the run of play when Danny Murphy runs through and tucks away a blocked shot. The next goal is also scored by the home team. Unfortunately for them, Bowen has dropped a Bully by putting it into his own net. George puts us in front in the 59th and I decide to mess around with the shape a bit. I bring off Ivar for Leonhardsen and go with just 1 behind the front 2 and play two in the centre of midfield. Bye Andersen (CBA) relishes being moved to the left side and bags a 2-minute brace. 4-1, a great start to the week.
Velkomin back to the year 867 AD. We’re now in our 3rd year of the Invasion having conquered both Divisions 2 & 1 at the first time of asking and we’re now mixing it up with the big boys in the Prem. This is the year that the Vikings marched deep into Mercia and wintered in Nottingham. As we’ve left both Nottingham clubs behind in our march for glory, We’ll have to take our barbaric raids out on the other midlands clubs such as Beorma’s Ham, Estone, Cofantreo & Deoraby.
Góðan dag and Velkomin back. Last time out we’d hit a bit of a slump in form and dropped into 2nd place in the league and got knocked out of the League Cup by Stokeport. Sigurd Ragnarsson decided that the grass was greener up North and used his sneaky big club release clause to secure a move to Rangers. We brought in Miklos Molnar as his replacement and I’m expecting big things from him….
First up this week we entertain Hamwich at the Crescent. Brandal opens the scoring only for our Scandi brother Stig Johansen to equalise for Southampton shortly after (i’m certain he’s one of them players who always scores against me, along with Martin Dahlin, Paul Scholes and bloody Steve Claridge). Brandal gets his second just after half time, Caceres receives his marching orders and we hold out for a win.
Heil og sæl & Velkomin back fellow Vikings. In our last post we were sitting pretty at the top of Division One with a 100% record and a nice 6 point cushion to fellow promotee’s (not sure if that’s a real word but sound right) Brycg Stowe Rovers.
Surely with the squad we’ve assembled, nothing can stop the Great Heathen Army’s march to the promised land?
