Ok, now I just feel sorry for you Orkney sods, you can't even trash talk. </BLOCKQUOTE>

Trash talk the sh!t hole you live in? I wouldn't want to make you cry. </BLOCKQUOTE>

I wouldn't want you to make me cry either, but I'm not worried. Give it your best shot, oh wait, don't do that. Coming from Orkney it would just go horribly wide. </BLOCKQUOTE>

I think the only thing that is horribly wide is your waist. </BLOCKQUOTE>

hey not bad! completely untrue, but not bad at all

Shetland Vs Orkney

Orkney came into this game as underdogs againest A Shetland team who have had match practise.
as expected Shetland came out all guns blazing , when a ball through nearly split the defence open
but narrowly missed the target. The Orkney defence was under constant pressure but wayward shots let
Orkney off the hook. A fantasic ball from C Robson across the field to the right winger
S Ninja , who then cross a beautiful ball into McTyler for him to see his header cleared off
the line. This I Believe When The Tie Turned. 2 minutes later McKauf Picked the ball up just inside they're half
and run to outside of the area, let off a fierce shot which was deflected wide .
Orkney piled on the pressure when We were awarded a corner on the 24th minute as a lovely cross was whipped in by
Libertine to the near Post to mctyler was there to apply a lovely finish

Orkney 1 - 0 Shetland Island

Then A Stroke of Magic , Mckauf picks the ball up on the touchline and mimicks his earlier run
Bit this times blasted the ball in the bottom corner out of the reach of the goalkeeper

Orkney 2 - 0 Shetland Islands

Four Minutes later, A Corner from the other Side Ninja Crossed the ball to the front post
Where again [b] McTyler was on hand to score his second of the game.

Orkney 3 - 0 Shetland Islands

Half Time.

nothing much happened In The Second Half apart from Mcjames Missed a sitter

Manager Man Of The Match
Jonny McKauf
Influniancal in how the game turned out, played some lovely balls, came back to help the defence and did some mazy runs
which led to a fantasic goal

Shetland Islands vs Orkney Islands
Pre-Season Friendly - 7.7.2006

Poor finishing and poor defending summed up a terrible day for Shetlands.

Shetlands started as the brighter side, with McLeod forcing an early save from Kemp. Maradona and O'Dahl both had chances too, but put them over.

Orkney got their first attack of the game, which led to Collinsmaking a good clearance at the back post. McKauf then missed a chance for the visitor and then hit a post.

Orkney took the lead on 22 mins, with Jon-McTyler heading in a corner, after no-one from the Shetland team seemed to go for the ball. Poor defending put us down after such a strong start.

Orkney got a lucky lucky second on 36 minutes, McKauf again running through the centre, only for his tame shot to somehow be missed by keeper Crouch, who was immediately subbed off by his manager.

Our poor defending of corners was again taken advantage of by Orkney, and Jon-McTyler headed in another corner, beating Collins to the ball. 3-0 down, and this showed why we need to take our chances.

We again started to show some of the good chances we had at the start of the first half, with Pethybridge's shot from 10 yards somehow deflected off the line by a combination of Orkney keepers and defenders.

HT Score: Shetland Islands 0-3 Orkney Islands

We improved after the break, but poor ball control led to Jon-McTyler almost getting in for a chance.

Howells was sent through on an easy one-on-one, but somehow managed to put it wide. A few minutes later, he set up Bamble, but his shot was just saved again.

McJames then missed a sitter of an open goal for Orkney.

FT Score: Shetland Islands 0-3 Orkney Islands

Complete embarassment, if only we had taken our chances we could have won this game. The match stats show how poor our finishing was. Our defending was equally poor, we just seem to do nothing for corners, which led to 2 of their goals, without that, we could have seen a better result. But fair play to Orkney, they took their chances and didn't waste them like we did. Our major problem is keepers. Imo none of them are good enough atm tbh. Strikers is the same, but one game on has a good game, the next they play rubbish. A few players really need to improve if we want to beat Orkney in the next game. It didn't help either that Orkney had more fitness than us as we had played Rangers just two days ago.

No-one deserved MoM imo, they were all poor. Once we improve we can beat Orkney, we're not ready for the season yet.

Just wait for the second game lads, gonna chance the XI completely as the one I put out played poorly. Only Pethybridge could probably keep his place imo.

A bit OTT to be calling me to quit You were one of the poorer players tbh, so you're in no position to judge.

We'll do better next time
