TALE CARRIER

Still on the subject of the Citadel an up-and-coming player has been the butt end of criticism that he is a tale carrier. It is said that this player goes and tells his higher up all what is happening on tours etc. There could be a ring of truth in this because this player in the past has worked with this official and is said to be having close contacts with him.

TOO LATE

The international body perturbed by the happenings in the Pearl Island had sent two officials to find out what is happening over there. One local official had told these foreign officials that there is a lot of political interference and that is why the local body is split and gone on and on throwing severe criticism on the local body. Later, however, he had realised that what he has done is all wrong; he had apologized for his behaviour and had wanted to withdraw his comments. Too late old boy the international body is now aware of what is happening at Pearl Island. Let’s see what they have to say when these two officials get back!

OUT OF THIS EARTH

Eighty athletic types converged into Bangkok to take part in a meet. At the venue they were informed that they had not paid their entry fees amounting to around USD 100 per person, which in reality should have been paid before they left their home country. The official who was with the athletic types was in a quandary as to how to tackle the situation simply because he did not have the money to pay the entry fees. All the athletic types surrounded this official and wanted to know why on Earth he had come on the tour if he cannot solve this very common blunder!

WHO IS FOOLING WHOM?

The scene now shifts to the oval ball. An official of the recent past, who has been quite a good whistle blower, now holds a top post in the body. It has been brought to light that this official has been selling certain items to the parent body and some die-hard supporters of the game wanted him out promptly. It looks as if this official has been using his good office to travel abroad quite often and buy certain items which he has been selling to the parent body. This is not sport old boy!

THE PAST BEGINS TO HAUNT

A small group of ghosts has reincarnated to haunt the upcoming annual election of the local body of the most popular sport in the world. Those who hold office now are in fear that this fear could spread over to the remaining members of the clan. The ghosts are identified as a set of present officials who had held top positions in the past. They have gone to the extent of sending petitions to the global and regional offices with wrong information against the present regime. To counter this, those in office are trying out all possible ammunitions in possession it is heard.

ONLY TIME WILL TELL

The new lady at the Citadel is drawing a lot of attention. She is pretty to say the least. Now there is a guy known as Vasco Da Gama, named so because of the numerous trips that he has been making overseas to attend to certain matters connected with the sport. Vasco has suggested to the pretty little thing that she should be his private secretary. Whether she will fall prey to his tactics or not, only time will tell!
