Stylers come from behind to secure deserved victory

WNSS 2 - 1 PNP Albion; put away the trumpets, and shackle the topless dancers; no need to rub your eyes in disbelief, but it is another WNSS victory. For the last few games the Stylers have started to show signs of getting their house in order; with the return to fitness of Daz and an overall improvement in everyones cardio-vascular performance. Some might say that an inner belief and steely determination is starting to creep into everyones game.

Owing to the Legends spinal tap, another Brown family reunion and Pistol Pete's private commitments, the Stylers were left to field a squad of 8 including Flames, fresh from his high-altitude training in Mexico. With their new formation of 2-4, to stifle the opposition they set about their task with gusto and resolve. They began tentatively but gradually began to exert their authority on the game. Some good passing and some intelligent running saw the glimpse of a chance for the Beast, but the ball was too long. Overhit passes where to become a theme of the game.

It was very much against the run of play that PNP broke the deadlock. Despite a passage of fluid play from the Stylers which had seen several opportunities open and shut in the blink of an eye, it was the familiar scene of uncleared lines which culminated with the ball in the net. But almost in an instant the Stylers were level. An unmitigated disaster in PNP rear-guard saw Daz react the quickest to nod a looper over the hapless net monkey. 1 - 1, and all to play for.

The second half saw a dis-jointed start from both sides. The 40th minute arrived and so did the man, in the shape of Gavstacurta. After chasing a dead-end over-it pass, the lanquid midfielder held his nerve and picked out Wildy. After almost an eternity he released the ball to the Beast, no chance for the keeper as the running man walked it in. Easy. Gavstacurta's reward was an early rest, as the ginger prince entered the fray. Seemingly re-charged after his soujourn to the Yucatan peninsula, the flame-haired genius appeared to have finally learned how to play the beautiful game; laying on some exquisite passes and nods to his appreciative team-mates. One such gem put the Beast clean through only for him to tamely hit the keeper. But in the excitement of the miss and the game opening up, the Stylers nearly threw it away. Flames misplaced a pass and the PNP broke 4 against 2, Mikos was incandescent as Flames failed to mop up his mess. It was a must win tackle. He won it.

Are our heroes on the cusp of a winning run? Who dares to dream in this upside down crazy world.
