Blue Kipper FC

Blue Kipper FC played their first ever game today, when they played Toffeeweb. The charity game raised £60 for BLUEBLOOD. (see below). There was drama before a ball was kicked, when Craig Wilson(Hoogie), said he only had half an hour left on this earth alive, & could he wear the number 9 shirt instead of being 10th sub. A board meeting took place & it was agreed to adjourn the meeting for at least half an hour. No only joking. Hoogie got the famous number 9.

The dressing room was full of excitement, boredom, hangovers, & fat arses, especially Benno's & Lard's. Photographer's from around the corner, where allowed into the dressing room to take dodgy photos of this once in a lifetime event. Grown men were seen, crying when they put on the official Everton shirt for the first time. Players were kissing the badge in a spontaneous action. Steven Sullivan(Sully) got a bit too excited, & kissed the Puma logo.

The match began in glorious sunshine. Blue Kipper were quickly into their stride, with Dave Crellin, & Ian Rich interchanging passes before Simon Kennedy crossed for Hoogie to shoot straight at the Toffeeweb keeper, Mark Edwards. The Kipper boys went 1-0 up when from Ste Sully's corner, Tommy Munro, rose like a salmon, & powered a header into the net. The first ever goal for Blue Kipper FC. The Tommy Gravesen look-a-like, ran away eyes popping out, delirious. Nobody could catch him. Nobody tried.

Neil Bennett, was working well in midfield with Ian Rich, & young Benno set up Simon to score Blue Kipper's second goal, which he took with aplomb. Hoogie had a chance to get on the scoresheet, but miskicked his shot. He was then replaced by Carl McHugh. Ian Kenno had a chance to score, himself, but seen the headlines in the Echo, & fluffed his chance.

Half Time: Blue Kipper 2, Toffeeweb 0.

His brother showed him how to do it when he got his second & Blue Kipper's 3rd. He beat two defenders in a mazy run, & poked it past the keeper. Another kiss of the badge.

Blue Kipper were playing really well. At the back Lard, Benno, Munro, & Ibs were dealing with the Toffeeweb forwards,as well as setting up attacks. Kanu, Kenno, & Sully(when he wasn't on his mobile) were finding space, & were being picked out by Crell, Rich, & young Benno.

Sully was just about to be brought off when he got on the end of a Neil Bennett pass, & raced on to score. Keith Wilson, & Robbie G, got straight into the game with some nice passing moves. Simon Kenno scored the first ever hat-trick for Blue Kipper, when he beat three players in a tight space, but the ref awarded a penalty. Simon placed it in the corner, & was promptly replaced by Chris Jones. Neil Bennett deserved his goal when he shot home from a tight angle, following some great close control.

Mark Doughty, who had little to do in the Blue Kipper goal, showed he has still got what it takes, when finding himself in a one to one situation, came out & dived at the feet of an oncoming forward, making a great save. With 10 minutes to go Kipper, was put through by his son, Chris. He flicked a header over the goalkeeper, & fell flat on his face. He should have scored. In the last minutes we had three generations of the Jones family on the pitch at the same time, when Ray Jones (aka Sting Ray) came on to direct operations from the midfield.

Final score: Blue Kipper 6, Toffeeweb 0.

Photos of the Game

LATE NEWS. Mac has been left out of the squad, after a late night incident. He escaped the late night curfew & was seen coming out of the Grafton at 2.20am with a Granny, who had been grabbed many times before. Not to worry. He has been replaced by non other than The Sower of the Seed, who was tucked up in bed by 7 bells. The rest of the squad had been taken to see Deacon Blue at the royal Court. They were later spotted in Matthew St. pissed as arse 'oles. That's dedication for you. (27/10/01)

Blue Kipper play their first ever match this Saturday, & the buzz around the place is electric. The team is picked from Evertonians, who have helped in some way to make the Blue Kipper website what it is today, a good grin, giggle, gabble, gaffe, game, gyrate, grope, guess, gazzette, gas, gift, gloat, girth, gossip, & hopefully a good goal.

Walter says: "Nobody is fit. All the so called players talk a good game. Indeed many of them have shouted from the Goodison stands that they could have done better than the players playing for the first team. This is their chance! When they walk on the pitch at Stanley Park, with the official Everton strip on, ( specially bought for this occasion to accommodate the guts on display - Size 'FM' - Fuckin Massive) & "Z-Cars" ringing in their ears, nothing will be able to stop them".
