FELTON FC WORLD CUP PREDICTION LEAGUE DAY 15 (FINAL DAY) The end of the World Cup group stages saw the end of the Felton FC prediction league. A thoroughly enjoyable title race that went right down to the wire. The last day was a real cup final. A one off shoot out for greatness. It was just like the time Felton were thrown into the pressure cooker of a final against bitter rivals Red Row North End Trap. It was May 2010 and the end of a long season. Feltons league form had been indifferent. Excessive boozing, partying and Shooters nightclub to blame. Still a third place finish but Jocky was in search of immortality. Literally. The cup campaign had been a welcome distraction from the league and Felton were on fire. Cruising through every round all the way to the final where theyd meet their noisy neighbours The Trap. Murmurs from their gaffer Tizzy that Felton were finished as a team and the trap were favourites hadnt gone down well. Hed effectively fed the beast that was hunting him. Tizzy was a character. Short, scruffy looking man forever in pumps and a Rafa Benitez Liverpool top. A scoundrel pantomime villain wearing a pirate ear-ring. He had an untidy handlebar tash and walked with a bizarre strut. Arms outstretched. The Ultras had it to a tee when they coined the chant HE WALKS LIKE HIS TASH. Tizzy would often turn up to matches in bandages on various parts of the body but was always able enough to run the line. If only David Cameron knew. It turned out that The Traps star man was to be suspended for the match and the games build up was dominated by Tizzys outrageous plea to the League to get the ban overturned. The committee consulted Jocky. Let him play was the response. Well beat their best team. The venue was Ashingtons newly redeveloped Woodhorn Lane ground for an unusual 2PM start. Redeveloped or not it was still Ashington. Hellish. The Trap turned up very cock sure of themselves arriving 2 hours before kick off. Suit and ties. Theyd brought their families and the rest of Red Row along. A large following and a real gypsy day out. This game would be a formality now that they had Shanka back. What a pity. Felton on the other hand couldnt be arsed with all that shit. Theyd stroll into the ground a measly half hour before the first whistle with the standard Trevor Hell (Bell) construction jackets on. There was still a small band of noisy Ultras in the away end of the ground. In reality they were standing by Jockys dug out but were later asked to move by a Morpeth Sunday League official for being too rowdy. Jocky had a bottle of Absinthe, a crate of 24 Carling and the customary Champagne in the boot bag just in case. So the stage was set. The pressure was on. Was Tizzys claim correct? Was this to be the formality he was expecting? Could The Trap finally put that 12-0 cup final drubbing of a few years back to bed? They couldnt. 5-3. The score line flattered The Trap. They were blown away. Felton even went down to 10 men but played with lion hearts, style and class. The Ultras went crazy. It was just a pity Tizzy couldnt bandage up his tail. He was sent packing with it firmly between his legs. This was Jockys time. Another trophy. Dedicated to the Ultras who were loyal to the end. The celebrations in the changers were to go down in folklore. Never to be forgotten. However, cup final or no cup final the rules were still the rules and when the dust finally settled Jimmy was there to collect his £4 subs from everyone and that was that.
