Being a part two I’ll keep it that way…..brief and succinct.

We played a meaningless game – for the fun of it……..but no one told the TIME LORD!!!!!! With a shoulder cocked he looked mean but thankfully missed!! The day Dan’s brown went a shade of red. I think it is out of his system….

Jim’s size twelve were the real reason why we kept them out in the second half….The mental hold that CHAS’s buttocks have over the mind of Jim is frightening – we all feel for you Justine….

There was no one in the queue out the front of workshop, and yet they made me wait, by myself, for about ten minutes….Five people came out and still they would not let me in. Maybe the nannas need to pack a little Rexona post match….

Go forth with Browness tonight men….

 

070301 – Children of the Fricken Corn

070301sml.jpg

Holy shit! We look like we are about to take up axe handles, pitchforks and gasoline torches, and head on into a convent to do Satan’s work. Look at Wal and Chas for Christ’s sake, are they not eyeball eating twins from some Stephen King novel. Gill is like, ‘sure I’ve killed a hundred children, and i will kill a hundred more whatever’. Even Nice Guy Hannan looks like he is only smiling because he is having a footbath in babies blood or something. Cocky and Tao look like they want to hurt someone real bad. Kondo is a dimension of pure evil hidden in the darkness, and Rhian looks an angry extra from Watership Down.

Le Coque takes the triple crown

For the first time in Nanna history the triple crown has been taken, Most Games, Most Goals, Most Mom. Nanna upper management salutes the worthy winner, and takes time to reflect on a season that took the Nannas to Glory. Onward proud men, to “A” division and beyond, somewhere in the greek alphabet possibly, or even Roman numerals.

Forfeit

Playing: RH, DC, AW, TW, TK

This is the controversial. Even the Harcourt does not turn up for a game against us now. What does this mean?? As the legendary striker says that you must not despise opponent’s ability and be confident in your own superiority, this word appears as winning without fighting?? Hope for the best and prepare for the worst?? Next game will tell me the answer.

I do not think that even sharpest Nannas noticed what I was thinking the night. Open up a beer and look back on the night. Explaining the feeling is most difficult thing for me but I will try it to find where I am.

It was like having nice meal at a pub and reasonably getting satisfied – a little bit – (never be satisfied too much) as your appetite have become normal. There is a happy lady group drinking behind you. They must be having good time as the most beautiful summer evening which does not seem ending long long time.

There was a dog between the 2 groups and the dog tried to tell me something. All of a sudden, the small dog silently pissed on my uniform bag and made the night almost unforgivable. But look! The owner, she was actually more than cute and sexy + my type, apologized three times and touch my shoulder few times. Mmm.. What does this meeeeeeean!!!

Let’s go to the pub after the next game to find out more.

When Nannas Dance

Sometimes schoolchildren write to me and they say: ‘The nannas are obviously a bunch of superfit guys who can play soccer really well, but what do they get up to when they aren’t carving shit up on the soccer field?”
I will tell you what we do. We dance. See:

dancing-nans0001.JPG

But sometimes just dancing isn’t enough. You have to take your pants off and dance. Like this:

I hope this answers the questions of the little children.

For little Danny

We few, we happy few, we band of brothers.
For he today who sheds his blood with little Danny shall be his brother.
Be he ne’er so vile, this day shall gentle his condition, and gentlemen now abed shall think themselves acursed they were not here, and hold their manhoods cheap whilst any speaks, that fought with us upon APISC’s courts.

MOM: CG

The first game of a new year Nanna’s, and what a game it was!!! Extreme brown pride should be felt, like you were dancing with GG Allen!!

We faced up to Harcourt with captain muttering watch out for number 6 – “he’s the man, he’s the man!!” So we were ready, on our game – focused. It was TIGHT the whole time.

Chris Brown scored twice with Kondo and ME dobbing one each. They tried to score but forgot what hardess was andsoftly peppered away.

The real controversy occured after the game with two UNNAMMED nannas stepping outside from the pub for a cigarrette!!! WHAT WAS THIS!!! Putting our whole smoke free sponsor ship at risk.

Luckily Jim offered to buy a vapouriser for the next card frenzy, however, Chris Brown is yet to attone.

 

It would be remiss of me not to mention Tao’s bux night. There were plenty of Bruises on show, and I presume that is why Tao could not make it – because of a whopper!

 

HOLD YOUR HEADS HIGH NANNAS, A GREAT START TO THE YEAR!!!!!!!!

A TRIBUTE TO JAMES BROWN – the funkiest nanna

What the world would have been like had he never have been born is unimaginable. It would be hard to argue that any other individual has had as much influence on music as this man. I won’t name his innovations here as they are so ever-present and deeply engrained in all of us that to describe them would be as pointless as notating the rhythms of our hearts and lungs.

I don’t feel it is appropriate to speak of loss in this situation. When a man dies who has contributed so much to music, more notably Soul Music, and more personally has inspired and architected my own very livelihood, I think speaking of loss would be ungrateful. Let us rather give thanks for what he gave us; for every every drop of his sweat that, along with his moans and grunts, bathed the stages and phonographs of our world in sweet raw Soul. Let us get up and celebrate his life with our music, and ours with his, just like he showed us.

May his soul rest in peace, but let his spirit keep working tirelessly among us.”

Ya, Das Ist Der Coachleggen – Fibulatoasten

He paid the ultimate sacrifice, he gave all that he had to give, he laid down that he may walk so his brother nannas could continue the fight. Sometimes a man has to give up everything, to gain nothing at all.

This is my leg in the slightly shabby plaster cast that the kojaks in emergency put on.

nannas_leginfibre_small.jpg
Now check out this sonbitch, it’s your hybrid plaster/fibreglass puppy installed by the trueschool plaster techs at the St Vincents fracture clinic. Yes sir it is lighter, stronger, better fitting and tougher looking… hell even the photo composed itself better in the presence of this beauty. Note the distinct lack of plaster skank on the toes and upper shin when the job is done right. Note also the ‘closer to right angle’ relationship between the foot and the leg in the second cast.

Alright, enough poorly interpreted medical knowledge. Tonight seek not revenge for your smoten coach, seek victory in the pureness of the belief that only the nannas will prevail.

Nannas merchandising makes a bold move into the lucrative Chinese market

dcrooks_shanghai_daily.jpg

The Nannas Logo sees it’s first coverage in the Chinese press, featuring prominently in a recent edition of the Shanghai Daily. Unfortunately the image was reproduced in B&W diminishing much of the impact of the poos and wees colour scheme proudly sported by themightyfightingnannas. Merchandising distributors on the mainland are rumored to be clamoring for a piece of the action after Nannas management turned down an offer from Taiwanese interests which they said ‘drastically undervalued the worth of the Nanna brand’.

Thanks to our man on the Bund, Jeremy Stewart for the documentation.
