Chat is one of the C's

' (something about enjoying the game)... Unfortunately, one team had to lose today.'
- Ludders' veiled diplomacy in his Trophy presentation speech

[Ram]

'Do you know the 3 C's?'
- random drunk pensioner, outside Blockbuster on Lenton Blvd, 11pm, 22nd April 2006

What a coincidence! Though his were Cool, Calm and Collected. Much easier to remember. Sorry Brun. And he also wanted a Cigarette, which I didn't have.

It was a truly epic Final. If we had lost, it would be nothing less than disastrous. Uncannily, the whole final was about the letter C.

1. Ludders' 3 C's - can't remember what they were
2. drunkman's 3 C's - as stated above
3. Chelmer Park - venue of Le Grande Finale
4. Chinese - pre-final team meal
5. Coach - preferred mode of transport of the 2nd XI
6. Compost - what Boner said he needed when our Coach passed a garden centre.
7. Carlsberg - Ludders beverage of choice
8. Cider - Boner and Harry's beverage of choice, consumed while taking the post-match team photo
8. Champagne - showed Ram's inability to use a Cork
9. Card/Caution - what Daggers would have received for violating the managers' code of conduct including swearing at the umpire (within 5 metres of the umpire), going outside the team area to swear at the officials and having the cheek to ask if he could put his beers in the umpires First Aid ice box. Obviously didn't want to reduce his yellow-card-to-games ratio.
10. Claudio - ended his impressive Cup form by injuring his hand (dubious)
11. Crouch - Woking forward, whose size made Travers look like Mr Universe (ironically)
12. Chilly - missed a stroke in normal time, but slotted it when it really mattered
13. Corner Flag - where Bob's shot was headed before the defender's leg deflected it into the goal

can i also add 'champions' to that list. and the officials loved my banter about the ice box, even got a bit of a laugh too. and that woman was bloody misreable. just trying to get on their good side before i started swearing at them. makes sense really.

Claudios cup form was hardly 'impressive'. His best effort was probably in the final where his absence meant rehab could play the whole game

[Ram]

Yeah. Sorry Dags, didn't mean to sound so harsh. It was funny more than anything else. Thanks for the pictures too.

As for Clauds, I think he played hard against Didsbury and provided some attacking spark vs Bexley.
