That was the message imprinted on the balloons released by the Man City fans when they visited Bramall Lane for the FA Cup 4th round tie. Well, whoever printed those balloons clearly knows very little about the beautiful game of football or maybe its a case of wishful thinking, perhaps.

In fact, it was those very same balloons that apparently confused the City defence and Goalkeeper into handing us our first goal or thats what they would like you to believe. How anyone cannot tell the difference between a big blue or white balloon and a football, is just unbelievable. Here’s a tip, City – A balloon is big, bouncy and slightly mis-shaped. Whereas a football is smaller, white and circular!

The reality is that their defence cocked up. The appropriately named City defender, Michael Ball, appeared to kick at fresh air as the football went through the middle of his legs and landed at the feet of Luton Shelton who calmly controlled the ball before slotting past Joe Hart and into the back of the net. Hart then proceeded to stamp on the balloons as if somehow they were to blame as opposed to sloppy defending.

Sheff Utd 2 Man City 1 – We matched them in most areas and simply out played them in others and we got a very well deserved win. For me, the man of the match was definitely Sheff Utd defender, Leigh Bromby, who actually can tell the difference between a balloon and a football…

Lets take it through to the next round now, when we will play Middlesboro at home.

Come on you Blades!

PS note to Boro fans – if you wish to bring some balloons to the match then you are more than welcome!

I was previously in a counter strike source, clan, for around 14 months but found myself in a position where I had to leave due to reasons that would not be fair to post in here, so we parted company. However, we are still friends and I still play regularly on their server. They will always have a place in my heart as that was the first and only clan I have ever been in prior to creating {CoW}.

I spent the next 6 months visiting various clan servers and web sites and out of the many, only 1 or 2 came close to what I was looking for but I never really felt ‘at home’ so to speak. So, after much consideration I made the decision to start my own clan along with some other like minded friends and behold, the {CoW} was born.

We all know and live near each other and in some cases, work together. We are the founder admins, and to all intents and purposes it is our clan. We are a fun and friendly bunch and are more interested in getting together for a good laugh as opposed to winning everything in sight (not that we could anyway)
