The Notorius Pub Gang at Erdington Doleys
Unlike the Ducks against the Celtics there is no point in going to the facts and figures to try and work out the result of this game - this is all about intangibles. The Pub Gang have quietly and unspectacularly beaten every team faced. They were the pre-Tournament favourites and it’s not difficult to see why: Supercup finalists at the end of last season (beating the Celtics in the semi-finals), they are undefeated in both League and Supercup so far this Season.
But what can you say about the Doleys? Well, not much actually – just a few brief words: they are Team of the Tournament and have taken over Monkeys Title as ‘The coach who finds a way’.
Still fancying the Gang, but as Toni said himself ‘the Erdington Doleys will be taken seriously’
Pub Gang by 6


Throughout the week I have been thinking and drafting and planning. My biggest match so far in RZA and I HAVE A CUNNING PLAN!

The brain waves started when I noticed the first kink in the pub gang armour... "highly talented Sharks"... At this point I knew I must be squaring off against a mad man so mad, he must have won the mad man competition beating Mad Jack McMad.

Then I ventured to the vile gutters of Erdington High St to draft in my secret weapons. I looked high and low, through Band M Bargains... Past Poundland and all the way to Cash Converters before I found them, lurking in the Charlie Hall Wetherspoons. And I knew these were the specimens.

It was at this point I decided to focus ony gameplay. I have replaced my Kickers favourite drink with Schloer, bribed my QB so he won't conspire against me and fetched my Linebackers out of Highcroft Mental Facility.

I am ready. It's now or never. Nothing to lose from the jobless wonders except the young lads still have a couple of molars left. So suit up, pads on and be ready. Dolphins vs Steelers to act as our warm up Sunday, finished in time for the main event. No excuses just results...

What can I say, H1LL5?

I consider myself a clear favourite, but RZA history has humbled me. Over the seasons I've lost quite a few games, which I thought would be easy wins.

You have been around for less than a year, yet beat Aliens despite a 10% gap in team rating. So, yeah, you've done pretty well, and the same could happen to me.

In 3 of 4 games in this competition I've played my reserves, however for you, Mr H1LL5, I will start my best players! No excuses. Best of luck.

You're first team is what I want. Challenge is good for the Jobless Wonders, its the reason I entered in the first place, but to be now tangling with some of the top sides in the game is exciting (even if I have arguably overachieved). I always said I wanted to play the Pub Gang (assumed second place in the group was the best I could hope for at the start), so here is my chance to see what my bunch of reprobates are made of. Best of luck sir!

I'll leave you with a Mike Ditka quote:

"You're never a loser until you quit trying" - that's my excuse if it goes pear shaped and I'm sticking to it.

Well, late tonight I find myself contemplating the game ahead...6th best in RZA plays 236th...all stats are against me...all records and prestige is against me...I play a name all know..The Notorious Pub Gang...I am left with 3 other great teams around me in the semi finals and I must be the only person with any hope for me, despite any quiet supporters for the underdog.

But as the kickoff whistle goes I want to remember my early post and main motivator...

I'll fight you on the pool table, the bar and in the smoking shelter, for I will not surrender...
I shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, I shall defend our Doleys goal line, whatever the cost may be...
I shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this game or a large part of it were subjected to interceptions and turnovers against me, then our Empire beyond the Admirals, primed and ready for my ascent, would carry on the struggle, until, in God’s good time, the Erdington Doleys, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the victory of the bowl...

EN GARDE


If this is the last time I say this then I can bow out with pride at reaching this stage...but...Athos...keep your hat on, I'm not done yet

Best of luck again Toni, I'll give it my all

Would love to watch this game, but it looks like I'm only going to able to catch the first half or so of the Ducks v Celtics.

Good luck to all!

Big day - we beat Chester last time out with only our Rookie DC activated (), so with all my proper starters primed for this match, we are now of course guaranteed to lose.....

3 picks in the 1st quarter, this isn't quite going to plan.

(same CB each time - Matthews)

Isn't it? Great 4th quarter comeback, but Chester has the finale drive with 3min left.
