I travelled to Hampshire yesterday to watch Bath City play Eastleigh in what was a very entertaining game of football. Here’s a brief summary of the major events.

9 min – City find themselves 1-0 down
11 min – Our misery is compiled when Eastleigh’s lead is doubled to 2-0
21 min – City fans are given glimmer of hope when a penalty is awarded. Dave Gilroy converts it – 2-1
25 min – The joy is short lived when Eastleigh regain their 2 goal advantage. 3-1.
60 min – Any hopes of getting a result are dealt a major blow when a Bath City player is sent off.
65 min – Game on! Bath City hero, Chris Holland, heads home a goal to make it 3-2.
75 min – The moment we thought it was well and truly over… Eastleigh get a fourth. 4-2
86 min – Dave Gilroy sends the City fans wild by scoring a wonder goal. 4-3. Too little, too late???
89 min – Apparently not. City are awarded a second penalty. Gilroy converts. Claims his hat trick. City fans, players and management go mental. 4-4.

3-1 and you fucked, sorry, “messed” it up!

The funniest moment of the day came when a certain City player yelled instructions to his team mate while pointing to one of Eastleigh’s more dangerous looking players “C’mon Geth – snap the fuckers legs!”. What great sportsmanship. His mother was stood close by. She must be so proud.

  • About Me

    So you stumbled across my blog. No doubt after searching for something bizarre on Google. Before you hit that 'Back Button', why not stay and have a read for a few minutes?

    If you are after a website which gives advice on how to hack an iPhone X, download the latest Steven Seagal movie, or view nudy ladies, you've come to the wrong place and may now press 'Back'.

    However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.

    You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.

    All written by a man, somewhere on the sanity-scale between normal and eccentric.
