Last week saw Red Star in a convincing 3-1 win over High Elf rivals, Haughty & Naughty in preparation for the FUC Cup tie against Rob West's Dwarf team, Pynk Panthers.

With aal the special inducement rules for FUC Cup games, Rob ended up with Flint Churnblade, Boomer Eziasson and 3 cards. I got 2 cards. My 12 Elves would be up against 14 Dwarves (okay, with his Death Roller Rob had 3 secret weapons), but Pynk Panthers had achieved the mighty record of 1 draw and 2 defeats in his three league games so far. If he could beat me up early he'd have a decent chance but Red star's 12th man (the fans) had a key part to play in the match...

I chose to kick off.and Flint got to work on my commandante (team captain), Fidel Castro, with the chainsaw. I needed the apothecary for this encounter... The kck was good and trapped the little feckers on the right hand flank. He got the ball but a one dice blitz by Marwoun Barghouti wrestled the runner down and spilled the ball into the crowd.

The drunken yobbos that follow the Panthers were no match for the silky grace of the Red Star fans who booted the football deep, deep into the Panthers endzone. The chase was on as 2 catchers and a blitzer blocked of any route for the Panthers team.
