Top Ten - Nash's Next Car: Number 6!

As a continuation of one of our popular features, we're bringing you the next car in the series Top Ten - Nash's Next Car!

To summarize, we've heard that Lakehill United and all around funny guy, Brian Nash, is in the market for a new car.  We thought it would be fun to help him decide what to purchase right here on LakehillUnited.Blogspot over the next few weeks.

So far, we've featured cars 10 through 7 in our quest to find the ultimate vehicle for Nash.  Today we bring you...

Nash's Next Car #6 - The Delorean from Back to the Future

That's right, we reckon that old Nash McFly could use with a stainless steel time machine that flies.  What better way to get Nash's body healthy and injury free then to go back in time and retrieve young and fit Nash?

Nash - Probably wouldn't waste a time machine to improve his health...

There is also the old maxim: "if I could go back to High School knowing what I know now..."  And we at LakehillUnited.Blogspot know that Nash is wise beyond his years.

This post has this writer wondering what he would do with a time machine....hmmmm....here's a list:

1. Who wouldn't gamble.
2. The Fraternity years were glorious!
3. Somehow, someway, I'd ensure I meet Rimek earlier in life...
4. 7 words: Video Footage of When I Was Fast.
5. I would be pleased to go back to the moment when Mike Peters peed on my car, wait in the bushes, and then hop out at an opportune time yelling, "This is the police!  We're trying to bust the pervert in the area who is exposing himself and peeing on Buicks!"

Stay tuned for Nash's next car as we enter the top 5!

United Win on Season Opener!

Lakehill United won their season opener at the beloved Foot last night with a 3-2 victory over visiting Nanaimo.

United started well enough with an early goal from cagey veteran, Chris "Thunder from Down Under" Woodcock.  The United hitman strode past the Nanaimo defence to calmly slot past the oncoming goalie in the 5th minute.

If nerves were a factor for United, they didn't show with good early work being done on the flanks through Matty "Pickup-the" Kones and Vinnie "Smith" Poldrugavac.  Also new United signing, Mani Bains worked well with returning United midfielder Jeff "The Other Geoff is Better Looking" Lenton in the centre of the park.

In the first half, Nanaimo didn't really press United and Woodcock soon got his second after some great build up play by the United midfield.  He beat the offside trap again to push the ball into the bottom corner.

Soon after, Woodcock would get his hat trick with a similar goal to the first two and United were cruising after 45 minutes.

After the interval, United looked sluggish as the coaching staff attempted to use their subs to maximum effect. Unfortunately, Nanaimo were a fitter squad and really started running at the United defence.  

Despite this pressure, United carved out a solid chance or two but Joe "The Body" Ventura was unable to finish past the Nanaimo keeper after getting himself in some excellent positions.

Nanaimo continued to pressure and it paid off with a well hit shot in the 56th.  All of sudden Nanaimo were on the board, without ever really being a threat to United.

Nanaimo continued to rally against the flagging United and got a fortunate second goal after some intense pressure in the United half.

It was clear that United had to tighten up and make some decisions.  Benny "Tickle Me Elmo" Stanchfield and Ryan "How Much Time is Left Sir" Braun were immense at the back.  They reassigned checks and allowed United to change formation - which effectively relieved the Nanaimo pressure on the backline.

In the end, United might have had another goal or two but got across the line with the three points.  It was clear that fitness needs work but the signs are there that they could have another marquee season.

Man of the Match - Chris Woodcock 
Honourable mentioned to Ryan Braun who had a steady performance in the back.
Holle-Nash Tribute to America Award - Joe Ventura - could have had a hat trick.
Moan of the Match - Not having unlimited subs.
