Firstly, Pionsat’s 3rd XI had a most unlikely 3-1 victory against a team much higher than them in the league. I’ve no idea what happened though as I wasn’t there to see it. I was there though in time to see the 2nd XI brushed aside 4-1. They are, I fear, doomed for relegation. Short of ideas up front, the defence was woeful – even more so than usual. The defence always was suspect but when they had a lightning-quick attack it usually compensated for it. But with illness, injury and suspension the attack has long gone.<\/p>\n

\"fcpsh<\/a>I wasn’t at Pionsat for the 3rd XI game because I was at St Eloy to see the 1st XI take on Nord Combraille, and just for a change, thrash them 7-2 which is always very pleasant to stuff one of our local neighbours. It adds spice to some of these local derbies.<\/p>\n

The Miners could only put out 10 players, which is astonishing for a 1st Division match, and while their attack was quite useful, the defence was way beyond woeful and at times passed into the comical.

\"puy<\/a>In one four-minute spell (I counted it) we had –<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. a Pionsat cross from the by-line driven into the area to no-one in particular (there was no Pionsat player forward) cannon off a St Eloy defender tracking back and go into his own goal.<\/li>\n
  2. A high Pionsat cross from the by-line into the area to no-one in particular, and the keeper palmed it into his own net<\/li>\n
  3. A long high ball forward from Pionsat to no-one in particular- the keeper shouts “to me” to his centre half – the centre-half heads it backwards but with nothing like enough power – the keeper has to dive miles forward to gather it up, but he spills it – his forward momentum carries the ball quite some distance forward to an unmarked Nico who simply sidefoots it into an empty net.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    All of that in four minutes!

    I was in Montlucon this afternoon buying stuff for the water system. It cost me \u20ac100 more-or-less but it’s all good-quality stuff and that should keep it all in good condition and done up properly, with taps between the two tanks to isolate them, and a central tap to drain them.<\/p>\n

    But I had a brainwave. I was going to join them up using some pipe connectors and some transparent pipe, but fot the same money I bought one of those stainless steel flexible tap connectors \u00a0That’s much more like it.<\/p>\n

    Yes, Brico Depot now selling bulkhead connectors make a whole load of things much more possible.<\/p>\n

    And now I’m off to bed. Nice clean clothes and nice clean bedding too – I was at the swimming baths this afternoon too.<\/p>\n
