GroupThinkFC, which An Onymous Lefty has ingeniously dubbed “The People’s Football Club”, played its second match last night and was annihilated by seven goals.

Now, at the risk of sounding like an apologist — but hey, some of my best friends are apologists — I’d just like to point out that we’re being prevented from playing at full strength by one significant factor: we still haven’t worked out how to play soccer.

Rest assured, though — once we’ve stopped picking up the ball and I’ve developed a better goal-defending strategy than this, the championship is more or less in the bag.

Last night The Editor, Jeremy Sear, myself and a handful of groupthinking communists likeminded bloggers began our campaign to take out, for the glory of Teh Left and David Hicks (peace be upon him), a suburban indoor soccer championship.

Our team name is, of course, GroupThinkFC, and the preliminary designs for our uniform have just come back from a Chinese sweatshop.

We’re hoping to have the shirts made up as soon as possible, so your thoughts and comments would be most appreciated — none of us has ever made a decision without the endorsement of Teh Left in its entirety, and we’re bloody well not about to start now.
