// Match Preview: Vicious Slinkies FC v Romance Explosion//
from the dhChornicles | VSFC Soccer Blog by D.R. Higgington
This week’s game will be against new opponents for VSFC. Having never played Romance Explosion before - the game will end up wide open. RE are currently above VSFC in the table - pulling down an extra draw. A win on Wednesday will see the Slinkies go higher than them on the table. It will surely be an interesting match up as these teams have not yet played each other in league play.
However - there seems to be some history between one of RE’s players and T. Sassaman. Will this early knowledge of their players give Sassaman a heads-up against them? D.R. Higgington

Match pointers (VSFC)
- The Slinkies will be back for blood after the heartbreaking 0-1 loss in the 80’s Toy Derby last week.
- This will be an early game - seeing E. Matzner show up later in the evening than normal.
- We have seen steady improvement by this Slinky side - will the overall improvement continue?
- Last week’s match was the first game this season that the Slinkies were held without a goal.
- This match is early enough that there will be a post-match happy hour. All are welcome.
