stevegrant Posted 20 March, 2013 Posted 20 March, 2013 Morning all, I've had an offer for a game against West Brom's fans team on the morning of the game against the Baggies next month. Likely venues are either Wide Lane or Fleming Park in Eastleigh. It'll probably be a fiver each to cover the pitch and a referee (any volunteers?), kit will be provided. If you're interested in playing, please reply below. If you're not interested, please ignore this message
Baldbarbarian Posted 20 March, 2013 Posted 20 March, 2013 I would be up for this Steve. Can play in the sticks or anywhere outfield
Saint Garrett Posted 20 March, 2013 Posted 20 March, 2013 I am very tempted to get involved....however do I have to be good?
Saint_clark Posted 20 March, 2013 Posted 20 March, 2013 (edited) I am very tempted to get involved....however do I have to be good? This I haven't played in about 5 years, except little kick abouts. Edit, how early in the morning are we talking here? Edited 20 March, 2013 by Saint_clark
Noodles34 Posted 20 March, 2013 Posted 20 March, 2013 do we get a free saints kit and match fee? Which pre match hotel will we be using? I am up for it as well, I am quite good actually, my Mrs actually calls me Messi!
simo Posted 20 March, 2013 Posted 20 March, 2013 I can send in my football aid dvd where I played leftwing in front of Flash for your scouts if you like ? Won 7-1 too may I add ;-) although I am older, larger and unfitter now !
trousers Posted 20 March, 2013 Posted 20 March, 2013 Quick....someone get Mayuka and Forren to sign up to the forum...
ant Posted 20 March, 2013 Posted 20 March, 2013 I'd be good for left mid/wing or as an attacking full back.
stevegrant Posted 20 March, 2013 Author Posted 20 March, 2013 The standard is probably best described as "mixed" - think mediocre Sunday League standard, a few decent players carrying a few rubbish ones. Kick-off time would be either 10.30 or 11.00

Kick-off time would be either 10.30 or 11.00 I've played one game of 11aside in about 10 years....I did score though.

Turkish Posted 20 March, 2013 Posted 20 March, 2013 You need to get that fat bulb that did the pitch relay to play up front. He could be our Jon Parkin.
Crab Lungs Posted 20 March, 2013 Posted 20 March, 2013 You need to get that fat bulb that did the pitch relay to play up front. He could be our Jon Parkin. Fancy a game, Turks? Come on, I will if you will.
Saints Warrior Posted 20 March, 2013 Posted 20 March, 2013 Steve put me down on the team list. reached my 50th now so will be interesting to see how I cope but did play a game vs ex Saints 2 years ago!!! Will need to confirm as have little 2 year old now!!
Turkish Posted 20 March, 2013 Posted 20 March, 2013 Fancy a game, Turks? Come on, I will if you will. I won't be around that weekend sadly.
Bwanamakubwa Posted 20 March, 2013 Posted 20 March, 2013 Count me in. Seems appropriate for my first game after 2 years and two operations on a leg break.
Minty Posted 21 March, 2013 Posted 21 March, 2013 I'm a 'possible' Steve, and would happily ref it if you don't get any other offers. Will confirm ASAP.
Minty Posted 21 March, 2013 Posted 21 March, 2013 Oh, and I'll ask Al if he fancies doing some photos for you/us too.
Calvin Posted 21 March, 2013 Posted 21 March, 2013 I would embarass you all. (joking) I better not.. I haven't touched a football for 3 years 0-o
hypochondriac Posted 21 March, 2013 Posted 21 March, 2013 I could. But not sure I'm up for playing for too long ha.
B Rabbit Posted 21 March, 2013 Posted 21 March, 2013 I won't be around that weekend sadly. you're retired too aren't you?
Turkish Posted 21 March, 2013 Posted 21 March, 2013 you're retired too aren't you? Yes mate and retired. My playing days are over old mans ankles FFS.
The9 Posted 22 March, 2013 Posted 22 March, 2013 I may attempt to ignore my various ongoing complaints and pitch up. I would also like to add that "fat bulb up front" is already taken.
Turkish Posted 22 March, 2013 Posted 22 March, 2013 I may attempt to ignore my various ongoing complaints and pitch up. I would also like to add that "fat bulb up front" is already taken. There is always room for someone that has played semi professional football in a fans team.
Miltonroader07 Posted 22 March, 2013 Posted 22 March, 2013 Me, Bearsy, Spugun and Glasgow can be the official Aggro
The9 Posted 22 March, 2013 Posted 22 March, 2013 There is always room for someone that has played semi professional football in a fans team. I used to think that.
BARCELONASAINT Posted 22 March, 2013 Posted 22 March, 2013 Steve, i'm up for this, happy anywhere in the back 4 or on the wings
Sanjay Sanchez Posted 23 March, 2013 Posted 23 March, 2013 I'll have a go, not played 11-a-side in years but would really enjoy the test. Pretty versatile between defence and midfield.
Minty Posted 23 March, 2013 Posted 23 March, 2013 If Minty plays, I play. MINIFREAKINGTRAM But would you actually turn up?
Crab Lungs Posted 23 March, 2013 Posted 23 March, 2013 But would you actually turn up? Anyone taking bets ?
The9 Posted 25 March, 2013 Posted 25 March, 2013 Oh and as it's a tradition, shotgun bagsie number 9.
DrZuess1979 the 2nd Posted 25 March, 2013 Posted 25 March, 2013 I might be up for this, How many have we got so far ? Oh and bagsie number 8
The9 Posted 25 March, 2013 Posted 25 March, 2013 I might be up for this, How many have we got so far ? Oh and bagsie number 8 We rarely end up with too many...

DrZuess1979 the 2nd Posted 25 March, 2013 Posted 25 March, 2013 We rarely end up with too many... Could bring 2 more if needed one centre back and another mid/attacker ?
Saint86 Posted 25 March, 2013 Posted 25 March, 2013 I'd be interested in playing if I'm in Southampton that weekend. Play either wing or somewhere else attacking So we have to be fit for this? Play 5 aside weekly at flemming park, but there is a big difference between a small indoor run around with some office blokes and a massive 11 aside pitch
The9 Posted 26 March, 2013 Posted 26 March, 2013 Could bring 2 more if needed one centre back and another mid/attacker ? I'll defer to Granty on squad composition... I'm sure he'll be back in civilisation in a day or so.

Play 5 aside weekly at flemming park, but there is a big difference between a small indoor run around with some office blokes and a massive 11 aside pitch I'm now 40, with a knackered knee and shoulder and haven't even played 5-a-side for a month, so I don't think you have much to worry about. Having said that, the first yard is in my head. And that's where it's staying.
stevegrant Posted 29 March, 2013 Author Posted 29 March, 2013 I'll defer to Granty on squad composition... I'm sure he'll be back in civilisation in a day or so. I'm now back from my tour of Italy, San Marino, Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Croatia I'll try to collate everything together later today, if those who are interested but haven't stated their positions and/or rough playing ability/fitness levels (those that I don't know, at least ) could do so, that would be very helpful.
Crab Lungs Posted 29 March, 2013 Posted 29 March, 2013 I'm now back from my tour of Italy, San Marino, Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Croatia I'll try to collate everything together later today, if those who are interested but haven't stated their positions and/or rough playing ability/fitness levels (those that I don't know, at least ) could do so, that would be very helpful. Nickname: "Crabs" "Threemo" "Lungs" "CL" and "El Lungo" Position: Number 10 Preferred shirt number: 3 Playing Ability: Low-World Class (there's a lot of variation) Playing Style: Bale/Ibrahimovic Fitness Level: 6 months ago, superb - currently, awful. Likelihood of turning up: Unknown I'm sure you won't find too many discrepancies in the above.
qwertySFC Posted 29 March, 2013 Posted 29 March, 2013 (edited) Need a bucket and cold sponge man - skilled at use of spraying deep heat - can run in short bursts and not spill a drop - Then I'm your man. Style - Denis Rolf - Fitness - Sprint to a causality in under a minute Preferred position - Touch line with T Shirt Skills - Loud voice for shouting Edited 29 March, 2013 by qwertySFC
SuperMikey Posted 29 March, 2013 Posted 29 March, 2013 I would play but... a) i'm severely unfit b) i've got knackered knees c) i'm sh!t However I will leave my phone on during the game in case anyone needs me to impart some tactical wisdom.
The9 Posted 29 March, 2013 Posted 29 March, 2013 Nickname: That's Mr The9 To You Position: Standing Still Up Front, Pointing. Does not like to admit also now equally likely to do this at the back. Preferred shirt number: Guess ! Playing Ability: Ask Turkish. Playing Style: Until 2000 Owen, since 2000 : Hartson Fitness Level: What Lung said, plus my Orthopaedic Consultant actually told me not to play football yesterday Likelihood of turning up: Most reliable person ever.
