I am an avid supporter of the great Bentleigh Greens Soccer Club, and as such have decided to begin, a play-by-play, blow-by-blow, triumph-by-triumph, running commentary of their season to date. So, hold onto your pants, as the action unfolds on the hallowed Victorian men’s first division pitch.
This week the Greens took it to an away match against there old nemesis The Dandenong Thunder. After a demoralising, sickness induced 1-5 loss to Langwarrin two rounds ago; the Greens took the only action any club can after such a defeat, and sacked the coach.
This led to a comeback victory against Westgate, which put them in a primed position to take the thunder back to the storm from which it came.
Dandenong came from two back-to-back wins, had a home ground advantage. Rumours have recently circulated suggesting that Dandenong have been flying in out of state players; due to the fact there starting line up has as many stars as an overcast midday sky.
On this occasion however, the extra muscle was in vain, and as the Dandenong players hurled nuts at the pitch in contempt, the greens took the win, 2 goals zip.
Goals were scored by Ben Cogger and Fikret Husanovic.
Next week The greens will take on the ladder leaders Frankston Pines, in a top two, battle of the tightens, ‘marno-E-marno’, West side story meets run baby run street gang fight/riot onslaught, to decided top place.
A win to the treated pines puts the comfortably ahead. A win to the greens (the colour of treated pine) will make them the first team this season to topple this old growth team from the top of the ladder.
Say tuned for all the highlights.
