Handbags to the ready!!

The scene has been set as we approach the mid-way point of the astro league season: second place Almaty face top of the table FC Miracle in what is sure to be an epic battle of Sky Sports proportions! Andy Gray can hardly contain himself. “Ooooh, I tell you something I haven’t been able to sleep all week thinking of this game. It is going to be GIGANTIC!”



Almaty’s preparations suffered a blow on Sunday when Gav “Injury prone” Jeffers injured his ankle in a training session. Sources close to him say that he is gutted to miss out on the match especially as he was hoping to bag a few goals to retain his status as the league’s top scorer. Apart from that Almaty have no other injury concerns. It is rumoured that long-term absentee, Alex “Big Guns” O’Donovan is going to make a surprise comeback in tonight’s game. Gaffer Spratt will have to decide whether it is wise to take Alex “Mr Glass” O’Donovan out of his protective bubble a week earlier than anticipated.



FC Miracle will be on a nigh after coming back from 2-0 to win 3-2 against City Ramblers. Their top-scorer ADORJAN ANDRASSY will hope to add to his already impressive tally of 10 goals. What is certain is that it will be game full of intrigue which sees the leagues best defense (FC Miracle) face the highest scoring team (Almaty).
