the final...

we lost the game with the penalties!! if u read my last post you should have known that we had done really badly in the result for our last game with them.. but the last game was just awesome.. we kept Nadur a draw the whole game and even during the half hour extra time.. but the during the penalties.. we just lost.. we lost during penalties for 3 1..

our players played really well.. lets start with that.. i ll give them the full credit.. when me and my great team of supporters arrived we were thinking that well lose from the beginning.. but we were proved wrong..

Dione scored our goal.. it was a great one and i think that was the best chance for us to score.. he just skipped all their defenders and put the ball in the back of the net.. it was totally a wow.. ive just seen the video of it.. he got the ball past the 3 defenders.. and when the goaler went for him he tried to catch the ball from the floor but Dione skipped him and the ball just went in!!

The goal they scored was Ini's fault they said.. He didn't catch the ball for sure but cant see if by mistake or something else.. my sis said it wasn't by mistake but i think it was.. i don't think our gk was bought.. for this game at least..

Mark and Andreas got the red card for Qala while Frank Paul(the sore loser) got it for Nadur..
it was a great game.. for our team at least cos Nadur had in mind that they'll win easily.. but that wasn't the plan..

sorry but forgot to give the Man of the Match.. In fact i don't know to who I should really give it.. i think Glenn and Brian and Dione deserve it the most though.. But even Mark and Xerri, Andreas and Gattuso.. so I think I'll give it to all the team cause they all did very well..

so see you at the next game.. you players.. rest cos u ll be against the newly promoted hotspurs..

and u fans.. be at the ground to give support..

tc and cya at the ground on 3rd October..

The money problem..

We have lost against the team that is the favourite to win this year's League. It was a hard game for us since we had A LOT of injuries.. The worst one is Glenn's I think with a couple of fractured ribs.. He still played and played really well for the injury he had.. but we have some other injuries.. The injured players still played so.. Brian got the red card during the last game so he was suspended.. He was at the ground (looking like the FBI hehe)..

Well we lost 3 0.. We got the goals during the second half.. The first was a small mistake by Andreas and Ini.. everyone does mistakes don't they?? He tried to help by not us getting a corner but it ended up a bad choice.. somebody from that shitty team scored.. don't even wanna know who..

After a couple of minutes.. they scored another one.. this was our goalie's fault though.. btw he played very badly during this game.. (money was even talked of so I'd better say nothing more).. the third goal in another couple of minutes... another easy goal for them..

it was good during the first half.. we lost a gr8 opportunity that would have changed the whole situation i think.. but what can we do now?? just talk about it..

The man of the match goes to 3 players.. cause me and my sis Jessie couldn't decide who played the best.. They are Glenn Cefai, Andreas Fotso and Ivan (Gattuso)..

so.. cya next Friday at 4pm for the final against Nadur again.. hope that it's a better score.. cya and tc..

Another great win for the Saints

Well, well, well.. I was afraid that we might loose this game, or at least get a draw, cause I was still afraid that Xaghra might have a great team like last years. (btw last year we lost to them 5-0, 5-2 and a draw of 2-2..) But this year I think that WE are gonna kick their ass.. sorry for the pun.. Because we WON 2 - 0 thanks to our beloved Dione and an auto goal by their coach player Leondro Blanco De Castro.. Personally i really don't like this player cos when he last year was with Ghajnsielem he really used to tease when they scored.. so this year it was us who did the teasing.. lol..


The first goal was in the third minute.. It was an angled shot by Andreas Fotso which was deflected by de Castro.. This surprisedhis colleague between the goal posts Donald Gauci (il-papa) and he let it in.. lol.. The second goal came after 4 minutes when Dione Lautier won a ball outside the area and placed it out of l-papa’s reach with a shot from the edge of the area.


Xaghra had most of the scoring opportunities, but our super gk Ini Aktpan (known as ix-xadina, or the monkey because of his beautiful saves) saved all of them..


Xaghra scored an offside goal which did not add as a goal.. of course..







Brian Portelli got sent off on the 85th minute after a second caution..





A lot of players got the yellow card in this game because wasn't kept to a minimum.. Imagine, the Xaghra players began fighting even because they thought that a throw in should be theirs.. blah..

But still we won.. So our next game is against our wanna be tenth time champions Nadur Youngsters next Sunday at 4pm.. You supporters be there cause we wanna show that we are great..

Qala have 4 games in 12 days.. That's a lot for a part time team.. But still we've performed beautifully in the first 2 games with a win against Ghajnsielem and another one against Xaghra.. Hope we do the same in the next two games, both against Nadur Youngsters..

So cya at the ground you Maroon supporters.. Tilll then, cya and tc..

Cya at the final now..

I told you in my last article that we are gonna win.. And did I predict right?? Yes I did!! It was an awesome game and I think it was even more exciting than last years' decider.. Because it was without scoring.. So even more difficult.. We won it by penalties 4-2!!

I don't know what to say really.. You had to be there to feel all the excitement.. Me and my friends were like praying on the floor that we win.. The game was played with only 10 players for nearly all the game for us because Pawlu got the frickin' red card..

The players all played well.. But, my Man of the match will go to Ini Aktpan because he did a couple of just great saves with which he helped us win the game.. But he isn't the only good player.. Pawlu, even though he got the red card only after some time, he played really well too.. I'm not gonna continue with all the players or else I would need the whole blog.. lol..

Now we are going to play in the final against our rivals Nadur.. Don't have really high hopes.. Just wish that we do well.. But we'll do for sure..

Cya next Wednesday at the ground for the first League game against Xaghra..

Cya and tc..

Kercem? Ghajnsielem?

So.. Ghajnsielem won and they have the great opportunity to play against us.. Although they are gonna loose..

Next Sunday, at least if it doesn't rain, we're gonna play against Ghajnsielem.. Their team won against Kercem Ajax last Sunday 2 - 1.. But.. Ghajnsielem have a big problem becuase their captain, Frankie Buttigieg (who is related to me but I don't wanna try and explain how), has gone to Savina (blah) for a years' spell.. Because he had a personal problem..

so Ghajnsielem, be prepared to loose against Gozo's best team (always in my opinion at least).. hope that the next time i write it is a win..

cya at the ground and tc guys..

Friendly against Xewkija Tigers

Well.. the friendly.. I personally wished that we won the game.. But we didn't.. But it was still a good game to watch.. not that there were many supporters from any team around..

Well, me and my crazy female friends decided that we wanted to see this game.. so we went..and btw.. we were the only ones there.. so.. the game started..

The starting Qala players were- Ini Aktpan, Dennis Abela (Matthew Zammit), Glenn Cefai, Jonathan Muscat (Noel Mizzi), Paul Camilleri, Clayton Caruana (Dione Lautier) (Bradley Hili), Andreas Fotso, Joseph Xerri (Jason Bonello), Mark Bonello, Christian Portelli (Daniel) and Mario Mifsud..

The ref.. well I'd better not talk about him.. He's not a real approved ref.. And our nickname for him is pizellu.. Cause if you see a pea and you see him I'd say you're seeing the same thing.. lol.. And the linesman was the foreign Xewkija player.. not biased I suspect.. hehe..

The game wasn't really so good and wasn't either a game that would leave you with your mouth open either.. Qala didn't attack so much.. I think we still need an attacker cause the players we have are good but not the scoring type..

The game ended in the score of 2-1 and we lost.. Our goal was scored by Andreas Fotso, our new acquisition.. Btw.. Christian Portelli isn't on loan any more and he's back with us.. woo..

I was really impressed by the thrre youngsters.. i.e. Bradley, Clayton (zbibu) and Matthew.. First of all I didn't know that Matthew played football and let alone played so well.. I knew Bradley was quite a good player cause at school (such a long time ago..) he was one of the best in class.. I also knew that zbibu was good.. I only hope that he keeps his temper in place cause it can only bring trouble.. But good luck to the three of them..

So.. that's all for now.. Cya at the ground on Sunday 9th September against either Kercem Ajax or Ghajnsielem.. Tc..
