Excitement Elsewhere

Rumour mill: Davide is taken away from a universe point loss to Bad Skid by a WFDF rep - TRUTH: Davide was simply taken aside by his team during half time to calm down a little.
Viksjöfors push Furious George to 15-13, narrowly losing.
Texas Showdown lose out to Japan's HUCK.
Cambridge beat the American Mixed team Wildcard to mix up their pool.
Some pitches are very boggy but weather was beautiful today. 
Schedule has changed a number of times in the day for tomorrows play but minimal effect for UK teams.

    2. I was actually there. When there was a bad call he took the disc, ran and spiked it into the back of a pickup truck. He then proceeded to drive the truck into the oppositions end zone shouting "GOOOOOOOOOOOOAL DAVIDE!". He tried to drive off into the distance in celebration but it came back on a travel call from his initial spike. Please update for this.
