Fitbaw mirrors the Champions League

After full time it was all square, just like Moscow. After ten minutes in, I thought it was just going to stay with Chelsea three up for the rest of the game - every time we pulled one back, Ross, Foxy or Gordo would restore the margin to three.

That was until Scott manage to poke away two in a row without reply to get us back into the game. After that it became more like a war of attrition with bodies lying all over the place. I would say a draw was a fair result and it also avoided any debating whether certain goals, penalties, etc. should have counted.

Next week sees the return of William, Si and Stuart. Kyle's foot seems OK and Alan's ankle should be better. We'll wait and see how Gordo's thigh is.

With regards to the cash situation, you'll notice on the stats that the kitty is £51 down - that because we're having to pay one week's in advance. Everyone I've heard from seems OK with the standing order idea - I've still to hear back from Si and Stu as their own holiday but I don't imagine there will be a problem. As for "dividends", unless anyone objects, I'm only going to pay out once a year at the end of the season - think of it as your Fitbaw Xmas Bonus.
