No draws at Tiptree United

Tiptree is a small place in Essex that has some interesting things about it. The village has a windmill and is known around the world for its jam, which is made at the local Wilkin & Sons factory. As for the form of their local football team, Tiptree United, it's wins or losses only. Tiptree United have still not drawn a game, having won 6 and lost 14 of their 20 games in the Essex League. Their club website merely shows their club badge with the fine Latin motto "Virtute non aliter" which roughly translates as "by virtue, not otherwise". When things go well for Tiptree United, they seem to go very well. In three of their wins they have knocked in four goals against Basildon United, Eton Manor and Bowers & Pitsea. With gates of between 20 and 63 filling the terraces at Tiptree United, the locals will be hoping for some solid results - and even a few draws - to keep out of the relegation spots. Curiously, if you look for Tiptree United on Facebook, you find a rear view of a naked man (also with no drawers), who is presumably Simon Rasmussen - and, it would seem, a keen fan and one of the hardcore 20.
